The table is haunted, so is the cue ball!
For the @Rive Halloween Challenge here on Contra, I've channeled my inner demons to create a spooky 8-ball pool game called 'Ghoul Table'. 🎱
It was built entirely in Rive using the new CLI, 3D objects, shaders, physics and more... and it ships as a .riv file under 10MB!
What crazy cue ball should I add to the game next? I'll implement the best suggestions!
Thanks Leo! There’s actually already a pumpkin bomb cue ball, which explodes on impact!
Amazing work 🔥
Thanks Robin! 🎱
If it was a video game then thats incredible 🔥🔥
Thanks Luis! Ball physics is incredibly well studied and documented with public code examples, so Rive's CLI can go and draw on that info and apply it to my game. Then it also does a bunch of headless testing and analyse it's own results to verify the balls behave how they...
Wow
Nice idea, maybe it could reach out from a pocket and grab the ball! Honestly, the physics didn't take long at all. I quite quickly had a very simple prototype of 3D balls with realistic physics (the whole thing hinged off the physics being convincing enough for it to be fun).
Impressive! 🔥
Thanks DESH! 🎱
Wow!!!
Impressive work🔥
Thanks Shubhang!
Building a full 3D pool game inside Rive under 10MB is insane. A really fun cue ball idea would be an Eyeball that looks around and blinks every time it bounces off a cushion.
a playable game in under 10mb of riv, that's wild
Really love this!
lovely
Ghoul Table is such a great name. Wild that the whole game runs in Rive, the physics look so good
This is amazing, especially the fact it was built with rive
awesome
sick!
This is massive , the idea behind it can't be compared
Building an interactive 3D physics game entirely in Rive using custom shaders and CLI tools is mind-blowing technical design work.
Mind blown! Phenomenal work 🙌 💯

A full moon. A pizza to deliver. And a city full of zombies.
Delivery vs Zombies, a small game I made for the Contra - Rive Halloween Challenge. Characters by @Verónica Beltrán.

Pizza delivery vs zombies is such a fun premise. Perfect Halloween entry.
New case, made in collaboration: three interactive Pokémon cards in Rive.
Rive turned out to be a completely different way of thinking than anything I’d drawn before. You don’t animate a scene and hand over a video. You build the behaviour, and then the viewer decides what happens next. Which means every pose has to work before anyone even touches it.
Idle pose, action pose, eyes that follow your cursor without looking creepy. Three action buttons per card, each firing its own move.
The whole process is in the case, from the first card designs to every card in motion 👇

Incredible case and work 🙌
New case on the profile: 3 Pokemon cards rebuilt as interactive Rive Animation
The brief we gave ourselves was simple. Catch that feeling of tilting a holo card, just on a screen.
So the eyes follow your cursor, every card has three moves, and the background switches between idle and action. There’s a pack to open and a randomizer that deals you a card.
Have a look at how it all came together 👇
Damn good work! How long did it take to make?
