My entry for the Games with Rive challenge, finally! I was super happy to put my game dev skills to use.

⚔️ Battle Stride — a card-based dungeon crawler where you lay down path cards to guide a soldier through procedurally generated dungeons, battle enemies, and collect relics.

I used Rive's state machines to drive all the character and card animations, data binding to keep the HUD in sync with game state, and listeners for interactive hover and click effects on the cards.

All the art—characters, cards, tiles, and relics—was hand-drawn and animated in Rive's editor using vector shapes, then exported as lightweight files for the web.

Audio events in the state machine handle combat and pickup sounds. The whole thing runs in the browser with lightweight vector exports.

My game submission is a colorful perception quiz game utilizing scripting and the AI agent.

Some highlights of the project:

• Game logic that adapts to difficulty and color ranges, while also balancing types of questions across the total rounds. All scalable. • Particle system is reactive UI changes with built in presets to adjust the visuals on the fly. • The game brain script only edits the view model with what the game logic feeds it, and the game flow progresses only through control in the state machine. This allows for clear separation to track bugs. I learned a lot about scripting, state machines, and building working gameplay. Enjoy! X Post

This is impressive. The clear separation between game logic, view model, and state machine shows solid architecture thinking not just gameplay experimentation. Well done 👏
