Poll: Transition Effects
Added 2021-05-22 04:17:47 +0000 UTCHey guys!
So this month's poll is a little different. As I may have mentioned in the Discord previously, I found this cool pack of transition effects for VN that's been kindly released for free as developer resources. I've been testing some of them out in game, but honestly, I can't decide if I like them or not and which ones to use.
If you remember from the original demo, I basically just use two transitions between scenes, chapters and any background / location changes: fade and dissolve. I feel like it's a bit boring, but at the same time, I'm worried that any of the transition effects I try feel a bit too much and kinda like a tacky Powerpoint presentation.
So I've made a quick video showcasing 11 transition effects I picked from the pack. The first three I'm thinking of choosing one or two to use purely for when the characters teleport to a different location magically, but the rest are for general scene / setting changes or whatever else you guys can think of.
So yeah, vote for any of the transition effects you liked and maybe leave a comment telling me why! I can also adjust the speed of the transitions too, so if there's any you liked but felt it was too slow or too fast, you can always mention it as well. All suggestions and comments are welcome!

I picked my favorites for the teleportation, the general scene, and for the mirror! I really love the idea that the transition is different when you teleport though. It really makes it feel like a spell.
