About

Scale Scroll

Features
Read full description

The Scale Scroll is a small contemplative app about physical scale. Every movement is measured at screen scale. A few centimeters become a person, a room, a track, a tower, a city, the edge of space, and beyond. Choose a small destination or keep scrolling freely. There is no score to chase. Just distance, music, haptics, and the strange feeling of moving through the size of things. The default sound is solo piano. Far enough out, the music begins to dissolve into space.
