You could have the size increase inversely proportional to the "distance" to the object - for example [Change size by 1/distance]. This probably would make the increase too fast, but you should be able to get a good value if you work with it a bit, maybe changing the value to 2 or something along those lines.

I can't really get it to work. Could you please have a go?

I don't really know what you're using to determine distance, but let me make an example for you. This script starts with the the distance to 10 units and the size at 100%, and then adjusts the size inversely to the distance.

Thank you very much. That works! 

What do you mean with the y position?

Well, in a 3D game, the object would get bigger, and move down the screen, both of which have the same problem.

Oh. Well I suppose it would be relatively easy to do a similar thing with y position; just multiply the expression by -1 and adjust it a bit so that the values for y would match correctly. (It would probably be something like (-1000/distance) + 100.)

Thanks you, that works brilliantly. 

No problem.
