I built an assistant character in Rive that's wired into the product's actual state — not a loop on top of the UI, but a face that responds in real time. It blinks and breathes while idle, leans in the moment you start typing, jumps when the answer lands and winces when something goes wrong.

Every expression is driven by data binding, so the character mirrors what the assistant is actually doing — part of the product, not a sticker on top of it.

Entering Somying into the Rive Interactive Character Challenge!

Somying is a project I've been building over time — not just a character that plays an animation and calls it a day, but one with her own little world that users can actually interact with. Inside the room, everything is designed to be interactive — from clicking and dragging to gamepad support, with real-time clock references that automatically shift the room's atmosphere from day to night. The character, animations, and all interactive systems are built entirely in Rive. The code side was developed with AI assistance to handle the integration and communication with Rive.
