It’s wild how a few subtle adjustments can dramatically boost game immersion! This is my little driving game, built entirely inside @Rive for the @Contra HQ Game Jam challenge, running on a webpage in the browser. Added in this version: • Drift physics • Helicopter style camera drift • Second weapon (mines) Rive isn’t just for games though, it’s a powerful tool for interactive UI, brand mascots, product explainers, and rich web experiences. Building games like this is simply a great way to stress-test the engine and explore what’s possible!

OH NO @Contra HQ!!! MR. BIG ROCK, with the help of @Rive, has stolen your goat!!! Okay, on the first level, you have to throw the goat (no goats were harmed during the animation). The more points you score, the more seconds you’ll have to spend in the second level.

Where you have to catch goats 😄

And on the third level, MR. BIG ROCK shows up. You have to throw goats at him — using their power to defeat him.

In the end, you always lose. There’s actually a grand idea behind it, you’re always just a tiny bit short of winning. Well, what did you expect — did you think you walked into a fairy tale? 😄

I built this entire system in Rive from scratch. All three levels are connected. The entire mechanic.

Fantastic, right? Now send in your goat 🐐 gameswithrive

Love the playful concept — using Rive for interactive game mechanics is a cool direction. The narrative hook makes it even more engaging.
