Product Hunt

I really like products like these that combine games and fitness. What gave you the idea for this @marspark?

@jakecrump I'm really glad you like the concept! This is actually our 3rd fitness game after "Wokamon" and "Pocket Plants". It all started when I wanted to find a motivator to stay active, but none of the fitness hardware/software can cut it. They made fitness more convenient and efficient but they don't change the fact that fitness takes time to show results and it's really boring. One of my favorite quote by Alan Thicke: "Fitness needs to be perceived as fun and games or we subconsciously avoid it." This is exactly what we would like to achieve: make fitness fun and help people to adopt a health/fitness habit.

@riakemppi We fetch steps from smart phone's build-in pedometer, Fitbit and Google Fit. So yes :)

Looks interesting - I'll try it! I'm doing a panel on gamification at Baycon this year, if this proves useful I'll be discussing it (along with Habitica, which I've used for years as a to-do list).
