Scene Transitions Free - Shader Sampler

8 scene transitions for Unity, free, in one line of C#. No prefab to place, no setup: import the package and call it.

SceneTransition.ChangeScene("Level2", "diamonds");
yield return SceneTransition.Cover("iris", new SceneTransition.Options { CenterOn = player });
// ...teleport the player, load a save...
yield return SceneTransition.Reveal("iris");

What's inside

• 6 patterns: fade, dither, wipe, diamonds, circles, iris.
• 2 rule masks: clouds, spots. Or draw your own: any greyscale texture works as a transition.
• Every transition has options: colour, duration, easing, direction, cell count, soft edges.
• Iris closes on a point or a Transform, so the screen can close on the player.
• PixelSize gives chunky edges that match pixel-art games.
• Scenes load in the background while the screen is covered.
• Runs on unscaled time, so it works while the game is paused, and blocks clicks while the screen is covered.
• Prefer the editor? The transition is a UI shader with a Progress slider, ready for an Animator or Timeline.
• Demo scene: a meadow and a dungeon and a button for every style.

The full pack

Scene Transitions has all 48: clock, spiral, hexagons, rays and 15 more patterns, 9 screen effects that bend the game image (pixelate, swirl, melt, tv and 5 more) and 12 more rule masks, heart, moon and flames among them. The same API, so moving up is changing the using line.

Compatibility

• Unity 6.3 or later, in any render pipeline: Built-in, URP (2D or Universal Renderer) and HDRP.
• Either input handler for the demo: the Input Manager or the Input System.
