This is a shameless re-submission, as I already submitted this whack-a-mole mini game for the Rive data binding challenge. But since this one is specifically about games I thought: 'what the heck, why not?'

No scripting in this one (yet).
Hopefully I can build something new for the next challenge :-]
Thanks for playing!
😄 character design and animation is solid, well executed
Cheers Anush!
Haha thanks Ciro 🙌

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!

It's fucking awesome
What if your facial expression became your controller? 🎮
I created a shooting game that trains your facial muscles by using your own expressions as the controller.
- 😊 Smile to power up your shots
- 😮 Open your mouth to fire a laser
- ⚡ Real-time 2D x 3D integration with Rive + React + Three.js
- 🎶 Sound, light, and animation working in sync
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.
