My entry for the Rive Game Challenge! 🚀
A fully functional 2D incremental clicker where you manage a grid, harvest resources, and automate an economy to fight a spreading virus.
• Designed with a solid GDD for balanced incremental math & upgrades.
• Grid Mechanics: Plant seeds & collect wood. Beware the dynamic "Rot" hazard that infects healthy tiles!
• Custom AI (Scripting): Smart targeting logic. The Sower plants, Reaper harvests, and Slime hunts the Rot.
• Economy: Reinvest wood to level up helpers for speed & massive Critical Hits.
• Tech Stack: Global state script for grid arrays, Data Binding for real-time UI, and State Machines for seamless animations.

This is a shameless re-submission, as I already submitted this whack-a-mole mini game for the Rive data binding challenge. But since this one is specifically about games I thought: 'what the heck, why not?'

No scripting in this one (yet).
Hopefully I can build something new for the next challenge :-]
Thanks for playing!
😄 character design and animation is solid, well executed
Built the classic Snake game entirely inside Rive using scripting and data binding.
This was an experiment pushing Rive beyond animation into interactive systems.
Movement, food spawning, and game state are all driven by Lua while the UI stays synced through a ViewModel.
Still polishing the web export, but the core gameplay is working and it was a fun challenge to build.

Very cool exploration 👏 Pushing Rive into interactive systems opens interesting UX possibilities. The ViewModel sync approach is especially intriguing.
We built this memory game with @Rive specifically for the youngest players🐼
The goal was to design something intuitive, soft, and non-overstimulating. No time pressure, just calm cause and effect.
Each animal reacts gently to success and failure. They follow the mouse and communicate entirely through motion. The scoring system is fully visual, using a growing progress bar instead of points, designed for pre-readers.
The board is randomized using data binding and scripting, creating dynamic card positions while keeping the interaction clear and consistent. A small game, made with care♥️
