Paper Void

a diorama with a hole punched in it

Someone made a paper world. Something went wrong underneath it. Eat it scale by scale.

Drag anywhere to slide the hole around.
Push it under things: they lean, bow and tip.
Too small to swallow? The inks still slip.
What it eats makes it bigger.
Eight scales up: paper grain, sub-room, room, house, street, block, city, region.
Clear one and the sheet zooms out into the next.

how it works

Drag anywhere to slide the hole. Keys ←↑↓→ work too.
Smaller than a thing: the inks slip, the lines bow, the thing shivers and leans.
Big enough and underneath: it tips over, then gets pulled in.
Everything it eats makes it bigger. Eat enough of a scale and it is finished.
Eight scales, each with its own clock and its own ruler, bottom left. The bar at the top right fills toward the next one.
