Letter sequence to move char ala Guitar Hero

Making a game where the character moves when a sequence of letters is typed.
You get message on screen which letter to type next, when you push it (on keyboard) the character moves, it moves faster if you push it quickly.
All the letters that come on screen needs to be random.

Is this possible to do with Scratch?

IT probably is. IT would be very complex though.

Sure...have a sprite with 26 costumes (one for each letter).  Have the costume change randomly.  Start a timer variable start when the letter is presented.  Then, have 26 scripts set up that look for keyboard input (one for each letter again).  When each script is run, it checks to see if the costume number of the letter presenting sprite matches the letter number associated with the ....ah never mind, easier to make it then to describe it... see link below
