Scaffolding Concept Review - Cookie Clicker and Donut County

For my first game I wanted to go with something that everyone has definitely played before, Cookie Clicker! Cookie Clicker has a relatively simple gameplay with of course just clicking upon the cookie to get more cookies to get more upgrades to get more cookies, that is why I believe having a more interactive controller would make the game more enjoyable to actively play instead of just letting it run in the background! For the physical gestures in the game I mean you literally click with the game so I believe the controls being gimmicks of the game mechanics would make the player enjoy the game and the control seem fun to use, that is why I wanted to go with this game!

For my next game I went with one that I believe is just a simple turn your brain off and enjoy type of game, that being Donut County!

Donut County is a relatively simple game using of course just the mouse movements for gameplay and that is why I wanted the player to envision instead of the main character using the tablet to control "The Hole" it can be the player  controlling "The Hole" through the means of seeing the controller physically and having something tangible to make the player more immersed into the gameplay and have a fun time with it. Obviously the key mechanical objects in the game would be BK's tablet that allows for the control of "The Hole" so making that into a controller would be wonderful! Of course physical gestures being the movement of "The Hole" would also be essential to adding to the controller!
