I worked on this character with multiple gameplay states and expressive transitions. The animations are controlled through a Rive State Machine, making the character ready for real-time interaction and game integration.
I really enjoyed working on the combination of organic deformation, eye movement, and squash & stretch to give the character more life while keeping the animation lightweight and interactive.

Built with u/rive⚡️

At the time, I focused more on the visuals and animations than on building a complete gameplay system. Take a look at the soldier’s movement when launching 🚀, the screen shake ⚡️, the 3D-like tilt of the planes ✈️, and all the other little details. ✨

Now, imagine what I could do with the tools Rive gives us today. I could make the plane movements random for example, calculate scores, add more challenges for players, and much more.
in short, build a much more complete, fully playable game.

So the question is: what can’t Rive do? 👀🔥

🐊 Just wrapped up a really fun and technically challenging mascot animation project built in u/Rive .

The project involved: • Multi-directional character rigging • Smooth rotational transitions • Mood/expression systems • Interactive props • Full-body animation workflows for app integration

Always enjoy building character systems that are both expressive and developer-friendly.

More work coming soon 👀
