Introduction
hey guys, if you search this topic you’ll probably find a gazillion of results suitable for you. But that’s fine, cuz this is a topic that would’ve been helpful to me, when I was starting out!
as the self proclaimed master of transitions, many people ask me: ‘how did you make that project without scenes’ or ‘how’d ya make it look so smooth’.
there’s only one way to solve that problem! (drumroll please)
TRANSITIONS!
Whats a Transition?
A transition is generally anything that is converts on screen to another, while being pleasing to the eye. (aka something that is not the simple scene movement)
Types of Transitions, And How to Make Them
Scene Transition
There are 2 ways to do this transition:
1: The scenes hopscotch provided you with
2: A simple 1-2 scene variable
If you have been on HS for a while, you know that scenes aren’t the ideal
transitions, they are blocky and unsatisfying. Especially the ones HS provides you with, they are okay for people learning that basics. But for intermediates like me, this is what you gotta do.
when game starts }
set scene = 1
{
when any object is tapped
set scene = 2
when scene = 1
set invisibility = 100
when scene = 2
set invisibility = 0
it looks like this:
Moving Transition
This transition is useful if you want anything to slide in.
from the x axis or y, it’s is one of the most satisfying transitions to watch!
when game starts
set position to: X Pos: -200 Y Pos: Height/2
repeat = 100 times
set position to: X Position + 400 - X Position/10
(/ means divide)
this is what it looks like:
Invis
This is a simple one:
to make it appear from 100 invis:
when game starts
set invisibility = 100
repeat = 10 times
set invisibility = 10-Invisibility as a %
to make it disappear from 0 invis:
when game starts
set invisibility = 0
repeat = 10 times
set invisibility = 10+Invisibility as a %
Growth
This transition code is the moving transition code basically.
Just change the set pos block to set size
and change all the X or Y pos to Size as a %
Thanks for reading ( if you made it to the end )

here’s a project for reference, I used all of the transitions I listed. Feel free to take some code, but please give credit, I worked really hard on this topic and that project.
