Kitae sports a variety of complex scene transitions using pixel shaders. These transitions run at very high speed on reasonably modern hardware and can be invoked with very minimal effort. This allows you to smoothly move from one area of your game to another with ease. Simply create two scenes, for example a main menu and an options menu, and then make a call to StartTransition as shown below.
Code:
game.StartTransition(mainMenu, options, new TimeSpan(0, 0, 2), InterpolationMethod.Cubic, new RadialWiggleTransition());
Transitions can be checked and stopped at any point, and the engine will leave your game in a state showing the destination scene. Scenes, layers and actors all still continue to update and render whilst the effect is in operation so animations still show through the transitions.
