Cozy Decor - a Mini-Game built in Rive! 🎀✨

Excited to submit my entry for the Game Challenge!

This project was my first attempt at building a complete game loop entirely in Rive, from mechanics and interaction states to feedback and progression. I wanted to recreate the feeling of the cozy decorating games I loved playing as a child, with my own motion design twist.

So, I’m no graphics designer, OR animator, AND I only found out about this challenge last Friday, and those other entries are AMAZING, so I’m not sure what I’m doing here, but I really wanted to be here, so here I am with my stick figures, hah. 

 Five evenings. Pure Rive. Blended together some bones ’n’ strokes, nested artboards, fun scripts, state machines (I will forever be in love with those), and NOT. A. SINGLE. SMI. All pure ViewModels and data bindings and all that useful stuff! Cute baby, fluffy monsters, driven mother, all for you to enjoy this simple click-to-kick mini game. Careful though. You may run out of Energy Points. Or you baby - out of Courage Points…

Cheers, everyone!
