@rive_app is magical ✨

ASCII text generated from 3d model using @rive_app + CLI. You can adjust the "lighting" direction and glyph size in real time.

Works with animation from #Blender or still meshes. #UIUXDesign

Build Your Own Ghost 👻

A little 3D toy made in @rive_app. Real cloth sim on the GPU canvas, built with the Rive CLI. Hats and the room made in Blender.

Pick a fabric, paint it, add shoes and a hat, then take it for a walk.

Power-ups coming next. This was so fun!

[Rive @rive_app]

Rive has grid and stack layouts.

Grid gives you rows and columns that fill, hug, or stay fixed. Stack layers everything in one cell, front to back.

Put them together and you get an inventory screen that resizes itself. 👇

@VFXCentral @dubcreationX I also think that sometimes: “ai is a way to overcome technical hurdles.” But I also know tech bros see the inverse: Ai is a way to overcome creative or artistic hurdles. Now than anyone can make anything, what value is there in any of it?

[Joey Judkins @JJMotionStudio]

I love that AI also has to start with the bouncing ball.

[Miles @uxmiles]

Yup it's over.

We're no longer hiring motion designers.

[Joey Judkins @JJMotionStudio]

Product teams: Can we please use a different term than “dogfooding”

[Rive @rive_app]

Freehand Brush Tools just landed in Rive 📷 Brush, Pencil, Eraser, Bucket, and Shape Bend are live for everyone draw it by hand, then bring it to life.

@radbar_1 November looking like a really fun month for games

[Joey Judkins @JJMotionStudio]

@boredpxnda Yeah I don’t get it either. Good game, but VERY overrated. I’m with the guy who was like “I can tell the game wants me to be sad right now but I have no idea who these people are.”

iPhone duo showing battery life like Red Dead Redemption

[Joey Judkins @JJMotionStudio]

Wonder when we might get progressive blurs in @rive_app to get in on some of that folding phone action

[Joey Judkins @JJMotionStudio]

It’s like Christmas morning. Again. Amazing new features for rigging in Rive!

[Rive @rive_app]

Rive Editor 0.8.5761 is live 🔗🎯

Constraints show up in the Hierarchy, and a new Target For panel tells you what's pointing at your selection.

Many of these updates make complex rigs easier to work with 👇

[Joey Judkins @JJMotionStudio]

Cool when can I get a new shirt

[Jerry Liu @SloppyJ44]

Been chipping away at a brand evolution at @rive_app - including a logo refresh. Excited to share more soon!

Oh my GOD @rive_app

[JcToon @HelloJcToon]

I’ve been testing @rive_app's new Brush tool in a small animation project that took me back to my Flash days. Everything in the scene was created with the brush, characters, effects, backgrounds, and more.
For the animation, I used bones, but I also tried a few small frame-by-frame animations using solos, such as the dust when the character jumps and the start of the rainbow.

[Joey Judkins @JJMotionStudio]

@rive_app has always felt similar to Flash in a lot of ways, but this was always the last missing piece. Exciting times ahead!

[JcToon @HelloJcToon]

Drawing, animating, and testing in @rive_app . This is sooooooo fun!!
