A mini click-shooter game fully designed within the Rive app. I wanted to see how complex of a project I could create without any coding knowledge. Thanks to this workshop, I feel so much more comfortable using the app now, and I'm super excited to build even more! :) You can check it out here: https://rive.app/marketplace/28366-53637-terminator-mini-game/ Please let me know your thoughts!

A few days ago, I didn't know Rive.

Today, I built an interactive Tour de France broadcast concept from scratch.

I learned Rive during the challenge, designed the interface in Figma, illustrated the entire race scene, animated every component, and somehow turned an idea that felt impossible into a working prototype.

Still learning. Still making mistakes. Still having fun.

That's probably my favorite part of being a designer.

Handsign Arcade: play rock paper scissors on a beat.

🕹️ Play it → https://www.snapchat.com/unlock/?type=SNAPCODE&uuid=7c45a99fa234447698a07c80d79f1196&metadata=01

Emoji cues fall down three lanes. You hit them by physically throwing 🪨 📄 ✂️ at the camera. The Lens reads your actual hand sign and shows you what it detected live, so a miss is never a mystery. Keep hitting the lanes without dropping one and the COMBO kicks in!!

The idea: dance arcade, but on your phone, and your hands do the dancing. All down to testing your reflex 😆

The first idea that didn't work: I started with head nods and head shakes as the input. Failed miserably. When your head moves to hit a cue, th cues move with it in frame, so you lose sight of the exact thing you're aiming at. Also nobody wants to look like they're head banging at their phone in public, so...

The second idea that didn't make the cut: music. It's a rhythm game with no music, because syncing audio was harder than it was worth 🥹 So the rhythm is carried entirely by the falling cues. Visual, not audible, which means it plays fine on mute, which is how most people scroll anyway.

So much learned from this one. Built entirely in Easy Lens. Without further ado, I present: Handsign Arcade ♥️

Best regards for this amazing challenge @Easy Lens and @Contra
