Loading Zone is an area accessible through the eastern entrance of the pyramid with two openings in Cone Pole Path.

Map of Loading Zone

Features

Around the map, there are several black screens with different animations on them. Most of these are some variants of a loading logo, however there are some oddities such as little creatures and eyes. All of the screens without icons will play a random pitched bell sound if interacted with from behind.

No matter what screen you go behind, the background will fade to black and the music will stop until you leave your position.

There is a certain screen surrounded by four more screens that display ticking clock icons. Interacting with the blank screen at its center from the back will activate The Clock, a fullscreen event featuring an analog clock in front of a black background quickly spinning its hands to a drumbeat. The face of the clock features numbers from a wide variety of different numeral systems. After viewing the event for approximately 24 seconds, the background will change to a scrolling wavy pattern, synths will begin to accompany the drumbeat, and the clock hands will spin even more rapidly. Pressing the 'Z' key will dismiss the event, and Minnatsuki will be placed behind a blank screen just southwest of where the event is activated.

Directly above the loading bar screen, hiding behind the block and waiting for the bar to "fully load" will take you to the window room upon interaction.

The window room is as the name says. The window itself shows a large array of colors, and changes palettes every so often.

Directions
