The game I built yesterday is fun, but I want to port it to an app at some point and I also want to make it prettier, so I started working on porting my Bolt Pit game from Threejs to Unity.
Also, based on a few gamer coworkers' suggestions I'm also switching the gameplay from arena level progression to a more rogue-like game.
Somehow along the way the art style changed from neon to dirty rust and I'm not a fan, so I'm changing the art style back.
I'm using the Top Down Engine to do a lot of the heavy lifting of the gameplay and speed up production.
That neon HUD and the hold-position tension in the clip look great and rogue-like + Top Down Engine is a smart combo for speed.
On a similar note, we just shipped Kabza (https://playkabza.com), a real-time territory-capture game on real city maps. Cool watching a prototype turn into something playable!

Kabza
Real-time territory capture on the real maps of Noida, Gurugram, Delhi and Bengaluru. Drag to send supporters, take wards and outgrow the rival parties. Play solo or with friends.
One of the best designs I’ve seen today. Really solid work 👏 Porting Threejs mechanics over to Unity gives game development workflows so much flexibility.
Thank you! It's super fun
the top down game looks so fun
yeah bring the neon back, rust wasnt it
Reverting the art style back after it drifted into rust takes some discipline, most people would just keep going to avoid redoing work. Curious if the rogue-like switch changes your level design more than the engine swap does.
Looks fun! 💕
Porting to Unity for a proper app makes sense once you want real physics and platform reach. Curious what broke first when you moved the mechanics over.
Cool, I really like the way the shot emits that glow and all the particles it generates.

Hey! 🙌 Guess it's time to introduce myself to the Contra community.
I'm Dmitri, a calm and responsible 3D motion designer based in Estonia.
For the past 3 years I've been eating keyframes for breakfast in my favorite software, Blender. I like turning pretty much anything into motion, just because moving things are more fun than static ones.
So... if you need to animate a dashboard, bring some infographics to life, add motion to your product's UI, or build an explainer video that actually explains what your product does, and you want a solid result with updates along the way instead of radio silence until the deadline, that's me.
(And if you know someone who needs exactly that, send them my way too 🙂)
Really nice motion work!

Built a 3D model viewer inside @Rive .
Not a plugin, not an embed — an actual glTF renderer running on @Rive 's GPU Canvas, written in Luau and WGSL, living inside the .riv file.
Drop in a .glb and it loads, lights, animates and orbits. Every control is a data-bound property, so the whole scene is drivable from a state machine, a timeline, or app code. Nothing is hardcoded to one model.
What's in it:
• glTF parsing written from scratch — Luau has no JSON library, so the decoder is hand-rolled
• PBR shading (Cook-Torrance GGX) with key/fill/rim lighting
• Skeletal skinning, 128-joint palette
• Rigid node animation with full keyframe interpolation
• Orbit camera with per-axis locks
• Auto-fit, so any model frames correctly regardless of authored scale
• ~40 data-bound properties: camera, transform, material, animation
Most of it was built by driving the Rive editor over its MCP server with Claude Code — scripted, not clicked.
Runtime support is nearly there. GPU Canvas landed in the web runtime last week. A couple of scripting APIs still need to follow before this can ship to a live site.
Here is the Github Repo for Instructions: https://lnkd.in/dAMXQJBR
the 3D viewer is so cool. nice work!
