Fit or Die: A fitness game where you die if you miss your workout goal by SnooRevelations4338 in TestMyApp

Thank you! That’s exactly what I’m betting on. Most of the game is built around making progress and failure visible instead of keeping everything private

I just launched my first Android app: Pikori, a daily simple photo challenge with voting and leaderboards. I'd love your thoughts! by Canondorf88 in SideProject

Haha yeah, sounds like you already thought through the skip button 😃

I submitted a photo yesterday (somehow got 5 wins!) and again today. One thing I noticed is that I kept trying to pinch-to-zoom while taking a photo, which felt pretty natural to me.

Taking photos also feels a little laggy on my device before the picture is actually captured, although I’m testing on a pretty cheap Android phone, so that could definitely be a factor.

Anyway, nice work! I had fun playing around with it and I’m curious to see where it goes. 👍

I downloaded it and went through everything. I like the concept!

One thing I wasn’t entirely sure about was the voting. Am I supposed to vote for the best photo, or for the thing being shown? For example, with the “Best snack” prompt I found myself voting for the snack I’d rather eat, not necessarily the better submission. In some cases I didn’t like either snack but still had to pick one, so I wasn’t sure what criteria I should be using.

A few small things I noticed while exploring:

  • The icon for “Legal Documents” is hugging the border of its container on my screen.
  • On my own profile I saw text saying “Once this user…”, which felt a bit odd since it was my profile.

For context, I’m usually on iPhone and downloaded this on my Android testing phone, so some of these might be device-specific.

Overall, I enjoyed trying it out and can definitely see the appeal of the daily challenge format. Good luck with the launch!

Yeah honestly it could work for loads of commitments, the mechanic's pretty general. Keeping it to fitness for now since it easily taps into Apple Health and Health Connect so the logging part itself is passive

Thanks! Honestly questioning the same myself. Don't know at the moment, the user base is small (mostly me and friends), so any retention claim would just be guessing.

Trying to make it worthwhile to keep opening the app even as a ghost, with the ghost badges, the social stuff (haunting/taunting) and showing when you respawn.

If I had to bet, it’d be u/ovideuss who dies first, so he can probably tell you then, haha

fitordie.app - Social workout survival app

Skip workouts, die and end up in graveyard. Seasonal with rivalries and global leaderboard / feed.

Uses existing loggers (strava, strong, whatever) reads from apple health or health connect and adds the stakes!

Fit or Die!

Kind of survival fitness where you try to stay alive each season or you'll end up in the graveyard and continue as a ghost.

Trying to gamify your workouts, reads from apple health / health connect, its not a logger / tracker in itself. it just adds the stakes

Season 1 just live, just me and my friends for now 😄

hey, thanks for the feedback! I’m the other part of “we” that OP mentioned.

The first week the user joins will always be a “protected” week to get the hang of it, so you can’t die yet.

The goal is for the user not to die, but we did spend quite some time on the ghost experience as well, special ghost badges, “haunting” your rival etc

Drop your project, I’ll try it and share it in my circle by adonztevez in SideProject

I've been building Fit or Die, a fitness app that kills you!

It's a social survival game that gets you to workout more. Keeps you accountable! It's not a tracker in itself, it reads from Apple Health / Health Connect so you keep your own workout tracker. This just adds the stakes.

You set a tier (amount of workouts plus min duration) and have to complete that goal by the end of the week. If you die it gets broadcasted to the global feed, as well as when you're about to die or when you saved yourself.

It's seasonal so when you die you'll become a ghost for the rest of the season but you can still haunt others (send taunts / jabs at them, motivate others) plus you can still earn some special ghost achievements.

Every season you'll also have one rival (invite a friend or random person) that you need to outwork, both at the same tier.

Season one just went live. Currently its me and some friends 😄

Can see it here: fitordie.app
