CHANNEL 13 📺👁️ A found-footage

CHANNEL 13 📺👁️ A found-footage horror scene you play through smart glasses.

You open a moldy fridge full of roaches, grab a warm beer, sink into a ruined couch and turn on an old CRT. Every zap, something hooded and faceless gets a little closer in the static. On channel 13 it rushes the glass… and then it comes out. 🎧 Sound on.

How I built it: • Rive CLI: the whole scene is written in RML with a coding agent (Claude Code), built and checked with rive --verify / inspect / screenshot, then pushed to the Rive editor • GPU Canvas (WGSL): two shaders. A smart-glasses lens pass over the whole frame (fisheye, chromatic split, low-light grain, light-buzz flicker, digital glitch) and a cursed CRT shader (B/W analog snow, scanlines, rolling bar, vertical-hold slips, the figure bulging the glass, procedural spider-web cracks, power-off collapse) • Luau scripting: story timing and "dread" level, channels and subliminal flashes, flying glass shards • Data binding: one Story view model shared across artboards, a Broadcast view model driving the TV • State machines: beat timelines, roach and bulb loops, 13 channels, all sound cues • Audio: 22 sound effects, zero music. Fridge hum, buzzing bulb, roaches, footsteps, CRT whine, whispers, heartbeat, screamer, shattering glass

Uses both the CLI and GPU Canvas.
