Suctioncup Man
What started as a small test inspired by Piemation’s Suctioncup Man became a multi-week learning experience and a somewhat functional game made in Rive.

The Start
The Original goal was much simpler than the final project. Originally it was only meant to be the character climbing around the screen following your cursor.
Then I thought to add the bird and have it chase after you, and while that was not the final version, it did lead to this more intricate piece.
The Menu
Once I decided to make this into a little game, I knew I needed a menu. That’s when I decided to style this after the old Flash games of my childhood with simple buttons and text to briefly explain the game and get you playing.
