Here’s a quick sketch for a micro game I’m building using Rive. The goal is to create an interactive illustration/ hidden object game. Up next I’ll start figuring out the actual illustration style, but in the meantime I’ll also need to decide on all the interactions and puzzles for it.

First Rive video with my daughter as collaborator, mainly contributing by sleeping so I can record it. 😄

You’ve probably seen the trick of changing the editor background colour to distinguish design and animate modes in Rive.

Here’s another small hack: add the background to Layouts so you can clearly see how elements reflow during animations or inside embeds. Simple but very handy.

This is a fun single-level game built over the course of a few weeks.

In this game, the player has a limited amount of time to complete the level. The catch is that using traversal abilities such as double jumping or dashing consumes a small amount of that time. Players must carefully balance movement and efficiency while navigating the environment.

This is meant to be an arcade type game where players try to beat each other’s highscores, so the goal is to traverse the level with the most time remaining.

Enemies use a basic AI system that allows them to patrol platforms, chase the player when spotted, and return to their route if the player escapes. The final boss uses a finite state machine that cycles between several attack patterns, including AoE attacks and projectile launches.
