Thanks! More to come :)
Love the playfulness here, Aleksey. Pixel art animation in Rive is a fun creative direction and the character has personality.
Thank you Juan!
wonderful!

This pixel art character is absolutely adorable! Love seeing Rive used for retro-style animations. The charm and personality really come through!

🌕 HITODAMA — The lake is silent.
An interactive psychological horror experience inspired by Japanese folklore. You play as a lone ferryman crossing mysterious waters where drifting fog, strange shadows, and the unknown turn a quiet journey into something unsettling.
What I built:
- A cinematic, moonlit 3D lake environment.
- A custom WGSL fog shader running on Rive's GPU Canvas.
- An interactive Haunt slider that lets you intensify the atmosphere.
- Rive-powered effects built using the Rive CLI, Rive Markup Language, Luau scripting, and data binding.
The lake environment was the foundation. For the @Rive Halloween Challenge, I wanted to push it further by creating a supernatural layer that responds to the player instead of remaining a static visual effect.
This project was an exploration of how code, shaders, and interactive design can turn an atmospheric scene into an experience.
So, Ready to cross the lake?
excited to play.
🎃 TRICK OR TREAT? My entry for the #rivehalloweenchallenge
Treat the kids, trick the monsters, and do it before the timer runs out.
Built with the Rive CLI + Claude Code, with GPU Canvas WGSL shaders for fog, flames and a game-over screen shake, plus Luau scripting, data binding and state machines.
Here's my spooky submission for the @Rive Halloween challenge: Candy Pail Monsters!
It's a roguelike TCG built entirely in Rive using CLI, GPU canvas, the brush tools, state machines, and more. It's playable on your desktop, tablet, and phone!
