We created a full game about what it feels like to run a studio and deliver projects on time. (Is not super easy 😜)
Check out Studio Run, on our website https://thelittlelabs.com/work/studio-run - to see how we handled the illustration, animation, logic, product design, and sound all in one cohesive build. In Rive!
We’ve gotten really great feedback from sharing it on social media, and we’re excited to bring it into this Rive Challenge. #gameswithrive
Hope you all enjoy it!
Ohh love thiiis!
Can't help but root for you guys here too! Loved that game from the very start :))
This is such a clever concept — turning the chaos of studio life into an actual game is brilliant! The illustration and animation style are so cohesive, and building it all in Rive is impressive. Good luck with the Games With Rive challenge!
thanks so much for the kind words!
Your welcome 😊
Amazing!!! 😍
This game turned out amazing! It was an honor to participate in the production and see such an incredible result!
What an incredible project! I'm rooting for you guys!
I love everything about this game! Was a fan since you released it and today seeing your submission reminded of it so...I started my day playing it with my boyfriend. He went pretty far but I am a looser :D
get ready on the refresh!
@Ana Catita try now, and win :)
So cool, it took me a whie to understand what was an obstacle and what was an actual powerup/collectible on the scene, but other than that, pretty amazing!
thanks Lucas! appreciate the powerup feedback!
make your own character for our game! https://www.instagram.com/p/DU8uuS1E8GV/

amazing work! love the characters and the retro console at the very start!
🎮🏃✨
Yo, this looks pretty fun.
cheers!
We just made the game easier, (we listen) and of course we added Santa, late from Christmas deliveries! But ready to run a studio. https://thelittlelabs.com/work/studio-run

TheLittleLabs - StudioRun! Rive game
StudioRun - A Cosmic Side-Scroller Adventure. Game made by TheLittleLabs an interactive design, illustration, and animation team - bringing brands and stories to life through imaginative, human-centered experiences.
I really like the game concept
super!
You guys are cracked
gotta love this!
I cannot help but admit that this is an amazing work.
This is one of the things that fascinates me, and seeing it done exceptionally with attention to the tiniest details makes it an even better experience. Way to go!
This is brilliant. Way more engaging than a traditional case study.
This goes beyond a fun concept it’s experiential storytelling. Turning real-world workflow challenges into an interactive game is such a smart creative move.
we are just so proud 🥹 challenges started coming in to design your own character. https://www.instagram.com/p/DVJXb0Zjt5Q/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
This game is so fun!! I really love the design and gameplay. I'm sooo obsessed!
miss you
TheLittleLabs Studio is on another level! So happy to see u guys participating here in this challenge.
The game was so absurdly good that, at first glance, I thought it was an ad for some pro mini game, lol! Then I realized it was an entry, and I was blown away.

DRIVE & SURVIVE! 🚀🚗💨
My driving game just levelled up!
Rockets are now in play. Collect ammo as you navigate the twists and turns of the track, then unleash chaos on your opponents in this fast-paced top-down racer built entirely in @Rive
Very Impressive
Tried building a Flappy Bird-style game in Rive today.
After an hour of state machines, triggers, and transitions… all I managed to create was a ball that falls beautifully, but refuses to jump. 😅
It made me realize how powerful (and humbling) interactive motion design really is. It’s not just animation. It’s logic, systems, and precision.
Huge respect to everyone who masters Rive and builds real interactive experiences with it. It’s a different level for me.
Rive really said “Oh you thought this was just animation?” 😅 really huge respect to @JΛVIΞR
