Ethereal

Ethereal is a calm, interactive art toy: a whole gallery of living worlds of light that answer your touch. And when the day is done, it becomes something new: a glowing bedside clock that keeps you gentle company all night. It plays on the biggest screen in the house too, cast from your phone. Open a world, reach out with a finger, and watch it respond. Stir a river of stars into a slow vortex. Fling a planet around a burning sun. Gather a swarm of fireflies to your fingertip like a lantern. Set paper lanterns adrift on a midnight river. Strum luminous strings into singing waves. Every world is generative and endlessly re-playable: no levels, no score, no way to lose. Just light, motion, and you. Every world sounds like itself, too. A warm, steady rain-wash soundscape rests under everything, and each world speaks the moment you see it: balloons pop, thunder cracks with the bolt, fireworks boom on the burst, candles light and snuff under your finger, the lava lamp glorps. Sounds pitch with where and what you touch, so nothing ever feels stamped out, with soft haptics and tilt-gravity for the worlds that obey your hands. NIGHTSTAND Turn any charging phone, or the old one in a drawer, into a living bedside clock. • An elegant clock floats over the world of your choice, tinted to match its light • It breathes softly and drifts, or fades and reappears somewhere new each minute, designed to protect your screen from burn-in • Dim the whole scene with a two-finger drag, right down to almost-dark • The screen stays awake while you charge; brightness and sound are one tap away • The calmest worlds keep the night: fireflies blink, candles breathe, rain runs down the glass, lanterns drift downriver, and Fireworks stages its own lazy show while you sleep ON THE BIG SCREEN Cast Ethereal to the TV and take the couch. • Switch worlds, place the clock and change the sound from your phone: it stays the remote • Worlds that live and move on their own play on the TV; the touch-painting worlds stay in your hands, where your fingers are • Pure black by default, made for OLED Made for quiet moments: winding down, finding focus, letting your mind wander somewhere beautiful, and watching over you until morning. FREE, FOREVER • Ripples: send rings rippling across a still pool • Solar: fling planets from a living solar system; hold the sun to charge a flare • Nebula: a flowing river of silken star-trails; stir it into a vortex • Starlines: trace your own constellations between the stars • Trails: draw with a glowing, colour-shifting ribbon • Bloom: grow unfolding mandalas of light • Frost: grow branching crystals of frost Nightstand is free too, with Ripples, Solar and Nebula keeping the night.
