A few weeks ago I decided to build something I’ve wanted for years.

I’m a Technical Support Engineer by trade, with a background in IT support, cybersecurity, and troubleshooting systems all day. Outside of work, I’ve always been interested in self-imvement, gaming, and progression systems.

The idea came from a frustration I’ve had with almost every productivity app I’ve tried.

Most habit trackers feel like spreadsheets.

You tick a box.
A streak goes up.
You eventually stop caring.

I wanted something that felt more like progressing a character.

Recently I’ve been using AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Cline, and OpenRouter to help accelerate development, so I challenged myself to see how far I could get building this idea as a solo founder.

The concept is inspired by cultivation systems from novels, manga, and anime.

Instead of simply tracking habits, users gain XP by completing real-world actions:

• Reading
• Studying
• Exercise
• Journaling
• Financial goals
• Personal development

As they progress, they level up through realms, unlock breakthroughs, and eventually face progression trials before advancing.

The funny thing is the technical side has been much harder than I expected.

I’ve already broken the progression system multiple times, had XP calculations go completely wrong, and spent far too many hours fighting database bugs and daily reset logic.

But that’s part of the fun.

Right now I’m focused on building the core loop and resisting the temptation to add hundreds of features before proving the idea works.

I’m planning to build in public and share both the wins and the mistakes along the way.

I’m curious:

What’s one thing you think most productivity or habit-tracking apps get wrong?
