Scroll Buddy
Scroll Buddy is a website enhancement that adds an animated walking character to a site's scroll bar. It is aimed at website owners and developers seeking to incorporate a playful visual element that activates during scrolling.
The tool provides specific character options including Scuba Buddy and Santa Buddy. It supports changing animation direction based on whether the user scrolls up or down, includes a knee bend animation, and offers a back-to-top action. Scroll Buddy automatically hides itself when a browser or device has the reduce-motion accessibility setting enabled, in order to accommodate users with vestibular motion disorders.
Installation instructions are delivered by email after acquisition. The tool works with websites on web or cloud hosting platforms. No browser extension or plugin exists yet for website builders such as WordPress. Questions or assistance requests are handled through email to dev@scrollbuddy.com. A demonstration appears on the Scroll Buddy site, though it carries a warning that the embedded stick-figure animation may affect some viewers with vestibular motion disorders.
