How do you make a static avatar illustration sing?

This Rive animation project was a blast. Head to the link in my bio to read the full case study on how I did it! @rive.app

Thinking of turning this into a tutorial.

Would you try building a game in Rive without code?
Let me know

Result

✅ All transitions work
✅ Score is passed between screens
✅ UI is modular
✅ Game runs entirely inside Rive, no outside JS or frameworks

Is it practical for full games? Maybe not yet (Waiting for that in Rive code panel 😉😉).
But it’s powerful for interactive design & prototypes.

The Idea
Create a modular game using nested artboards:
Start Screen

Game Screen

End Screen
Each screen is a separate artboard. The main container (MainAppUI) handles transitions, score, and logic.

I wanted to see if it’s possible to build a complete game using only @rive.app no external code, just pure state machines, data bindings, and nested artboards. Spoiler: It works. Here’s how I did it 👇🕹️🔥#Rive

My Swamp Wizard Frog is animated!

Used @rive.app’s State Machine for seamless idle & ‘weaving staff’ animations.

Big thanks to my son for the wizardly music! Hear it: @davogm.bsky.social

If you need a character illustration or animation for your project, I’d love to work with you, Email is on the profile, and my DMs are open. 📥

Pretty happy with how it turned out. Have you given Blender a go for character design? Let me know below! 👇

Peace,

Testing the waters! Wanted to see if my skills from other 3D software would translate to Blender, and this beginner course by the awesome Nikolay Naydenov on character creation (based on the beautiful art of Deema Egorov) was perfect.
