Hi, aside from the fact that the illusion of perspective depends on the items being scaled and the spacing not being equal, i see two options, a) limit the maximum scale, dirty but might be a quick trick. Either by multiplying it by some root or a hard limit. b) sum the (scaled) width of all items, walk through list again and keep track of the (scaled) width of the items traversed up to that point. For the current item base it's angle on (in pseudo) currentListWidthUpToThisPoint/totalwidth. When determining the width of the list you can add a padding between each item, which allows you to play which the separation and scale. Just an idea I haven't tried this out, that's why the (scaled) is between brackets, you'll have to experiment with what works best.
