A #Starship 🚀 launch telemetry from SpaceX.
This project combines a custom shader for the 3D render, scripting for precise timing control, state machines, data binding, and UI animation.
A fun way to explore how far Rive can be pushed beyond traditional UI animation by bringing rendering, motion, and application logic together in a single tool.
🚀 Best experienced with sound. 🔊
This is amazing! Don't forget to share your Rive invite link!
I’ve seen work like this before, but never really stopped to think about how it’s made. Yours made me curious — how did you put all of this together in Rive?
Motion design as technical communication. Dense telemetry made legible at a glance is a real skill.

I was mesmerized by the lava-lamp-like art @rickyretouch is creating and decided to replicate this effect with @Rive CLI. The result outdid my expectations. Poke and spin it yourself: https://rive.app/s/qruqF9nWZk2vn-pqTOp64w/?runtime=rive-renderer
Awesome! 🔥
Second #Rive animation locked in! 🏰✨
For this build, I designed and animated a gothic portcullis interactive UI element triggered by a glowing gemstone mechanism.
What I focused on for this experiment:
End-to-end vector design in Rive: Built entirely from scratch inside Rive to dust off my vectoring skills and master its native pathing/drawing tools.
Interactive State Machines: Configured the click logic using listener triggers to handle the open/close state loop smoothly.
Gothic UI Aesthetics: Balanced heavy metallic structures with subtle vector lighting to keep that dark fantasy feel.
Still diving deeper into interactive vector motion every day! What do you all think of the timing and state transitions?

Cool gothic style!
