Another Portal-styled first person puzzler is now on Kickstarter. Like Quantum Conundrum, Scale puts a new twist on the genre, this time replacing portals with the ability to shrink and grow things.
According to Arizona-based developer Steve Swink, ”You play as young physics savant Penny Prince, inventor of a device which can suck the size out of one thing and shoot it into another. SCALE begins as Penny awakes in prison, convicted of 9,322,591 counts of Depraved Heart Murder for accidentally destroying the east coast. Someone has confiscated her cat. Against the express advice of the rehabilitative therapy coordinator now living inside her brain, she hastily reconstructs her device using materials from a nearby cellphone recycling bin and embarks upon escape in an attempt to regain her freedom and her cat.”
Players can do such things as make a building shrink to the size of a doll house, or increase the size of a frog so that they can hop inside the frog’s mouth to get into its stomach and retrieve an object.
Check out the Kickstarter trailer in the video above. Gamers interested in Scale can visit the Kickstarter site here.
