Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 26/03/2026I've still been working really hard on the #mewgenics level editor. I cant get enough of the little animation I added for saving! 050
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 14/03/2026Just for proof here's what that looks like in-game, plus a couple others 010
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 14/03/2026Hey #Mewgenics fans! I've been putting together a level editor! Show me your creativity! www.nexusmods.com/mewgenics/mo... 160
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 24/02/2026That was a wild sequence. One of a kind gaming moment. 000
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 24/02/2026I like the loading screens from Ratchet and Clank for the same reason! 110
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 24/02/2026When it comes to Megaton I wish that sequence was repeatable. As if they are actually closing off the gate to defend themselves when you leave. They have to recognize you and open it. 010
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 24/02/2026Oh that's so interesting. I'm glad you were able to learn something from the post. This applies a lot to non games too. I always feel a sense of awe when watching movies where secret rooms open or big spy doors unlatch themselves. 010
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 24/02/2026Yeah those doors hold a special place in my heart. 000
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 24/02/2026Yeah I love that one. I also think the exiting sequences, particularly the metro, are pretty cool. 010
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 24/02/2026That makes sense. Both are very important scenes that the devs gave a good amount of pomp and circumstance. 000
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026A classic. I suspect we got a lot more of these in the past to hide level loading/streaming, but it did add pomp and circumstance to entering these new huge areas. It's almost as if the bigger the new area the longer the door animation had to be. 110
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Going into and out of the safe house in Death Stranding too 030
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Oh heck yeah. I hadn't thought about mechs until you brought this up. Getting into mechs is always so cool. It makes me think of getting into the mechs in Titanfall too! 110
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Oh yeah. I'd never heard of that before, but yeah it looks pretty cool. Getting to immerse yourself with the characters in a semi private setting. 020
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Ooh and also the docking sequences from Elite Dangerous 120
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026As I'm going through it in my head I've also thought of a few more that I love. Entering Megaton for the first time in F3 Getting in and out of your spaceship in Outer Wilds Many of the very techy doors in Jak 2 & 3 Also using the big sub in Subnautica. 250
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Never knowing what's going to be on the other side 030
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Oh yeah, the ones where it cuts to the door opening cutscene and the camera pans in. Those are so cool! 020
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Oh yeah. With the cinematic animation while being sucked in. 120
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026Oh yeah. I'd never seen that before, but it has that subtle narration of "Time passes" when the screen fades. 010
Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 23/02/2026This makes me think of the boss mist in the souls games as well 140

Nick Pasta @nickpasta.bitsnpixels.org · 03/02/2026I've been thinking a lot about "Checkpoins" in games, in the literal sense. Like big doors you need to go through that take some time to open. I feel like they add so much weight to the world. I especially love the one in Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty right now What are your favorites? 000
