Kinetic
ProType with mass: every glyph is its own spring, and the squash and stretch are read back off that spring rather than authored.

What It Demonstrates
- Squash & stretch
- Deforming an element as it moves to convey weight, speed, and flexibility.
- Anticipation
- A small wind-up in the opposite direction before a move, hinting at what's about to happen.
- Spring
- Motion driven by physics (tension, mass, damping) rather than a set duration.
- Follow-through
- Parts of an element keep moving and settle slightly after the main motion stops, adding weight.
- Stagger
- Animate several items one after another with a small delay between each, creating a cascade.

Split Flap
A Solari departure board. Every column walks the charset one flap at a time until it reaches its letter, so the word is never revealed. It is arrived at, with a real hinged half falling away as the next one seats behind it.
Stretch TypePro
Type that deforms with how fast you are scrolling rather than how far. Each glyph springs toward the same velocity signal on a softer spring than the one before it, so the wave down the word is a consequence of the physics instead of a list of delays — change the string and it re-tunes itself.
Letters Pull
A per-letter pull-up reveal. Letters rise, sharpen from a blur, and fade in with a stagger.
Scramble Text
Ciphered glyphs boiling out of noise and resolving into words. A decode cascade that settles character by character, a hover that re-scrambles on demand, or a continuous low glitch that keeps the type restless, each freshly-resolved letter flashing accent before it cools to ink.
Specter
Spectral RGB-split echoes drift off the letters and dissolve into the dark.
Lumen
Copy that lights up as you read it. Words ahead sit dim and unfocused, and stay lit once you pass them.
