HW 10.4 - Return to One Digital Medium - Creative Coding

The digital medium I'd like to revisit is creative coding - using Scratch, or potentially one of the other free online coding programs online (many were mentioned at the Creative Technologies Symposium, and I took a lot of notes). I'd like to turn the brief, low-interactive Yeti Game I made into a more robust game that can really be interacted with. I'd like the player to feel more agency and involvement, to choose what the Yeti will give advice on by clicking various parts of the screen. I'd also like to vary the look of the Yeti as well by showing a close up of its face when it is finished dispensing the advice. The game would still likely have the same three categories of advice, maybe one or two more, but many more answers for each category. I'd like to user of the game to be able to spend more time within the game, and build up the tension between and experience that is fun and funny, with an uncanny or sort of creepy experience, and actually useful advice told in the language of talk therapy.
