This could be done... In fact, IndieGameJam1 used similar one (your shadow is 
your input).

And in fact, we already have the technology required to extract human 
motions/poses from optical camera data. Too bad that this technology is 
priopretaty of the company I work at; and I don't have right to develop 
another one for non-competition reasons :( If not that, we would have used 
computer vision in the very first LTGameJam...


Ok, eventually the next LTGameJam will have some theme. I like the microphone 
input quite much!
