Double Glitch reproduced in Figma a cool (or should I say ​“frozen”? Sorry!) effect first created by Marcus Eckert for the Riveo app. This cursor-tracking prototyping technique is getting wild!

Double Glitch is building on the powerful cursor-tracking technique I shared in the previous issue with a new tutorial for creating an interactive glowing card using a resource file he published in the community.

Double Glitch presents the video tutorial on cursor tracking technique as the first part of his series on advanced prototyping in Figma. You might remember his demo of this effect from a few months ago. A smart way to achieve the effect with a grid of interactive components!

As always, Double Glitch is pushing the limits of Figma prototypes — this time by rendering a rectangular cuboid in 3D using variables and advanced prototyping. See his demo on Twitter and thoughts on the intricacies of this project.

Double Glitch made the Space Invaders game and turned Figma into a game engine.

Double Glitch pushes Figma’s prototyping limits with this cool mouse tracking effect.

A simple but fun technique for creating cool animations with mirrored components.

A set of social widgets for Bento with a little extra depth from Double Glitch.

A pack from Double Glitch with a collection of pre-made text effects that you can apply to your designs with just a few clicks. Reminds me of the good ol’ days of downloadable Photoshop actions. While the pack is commercial, I suggest checking out a free demo in the Community and watching a screencast.

If that game wasn’t enough, check out these spatial 3D animations made using SkewDat plugin. There is a tutorial as well.

Honestly, at this point, I gave up on trying to understand how Double Glitch creates their prototypes. All possible Tic Tac Toe moves were manually tied together in this prototype, which is an incredible amount of work. Make sure to get a copy of the file and look under the hood!
