👋 Hey everyone! I'm a solo dev currently building something a little wild — a real-life RPG app inspired by Solo Leveling.

The idea hit me when I wondered:
“What if life had a leveling system?”
One where workouts, habits, and focus gave you XP, quests, and stat upgrades — like Strength, Intelligence, and Discipline.

So I’m building Re-Birth — a mobile app that turns your life into an RPG.
I’m sharing the whole journey here and on YouTube if you’re curious: youtube.com/@CodeStartAI

Fun fact: I sometimes call my morning routine “Dungeon Mode.” 😂

Looking forward to connecting with others building cool stuff or just geeking out over anime, gamification, or tech!

Whoa, this sounds awesome! 💥 Turning real-life goals into RPG mechanics is such a cool concept — and Solo Leveling is a top-tier inspiration.

Definitely checking out Re-Birth and your dev journey on YouTube — can’t wait to see how it evolves. Wishing you epic XP gains and bug-free quests ahead! 💪🎮✨

Thank you so much! 🙌 Your support means a ton — I’m hyped to share the Re-Birth journey with you! 💥

If you haven’t already, check out the site and drop your email for early beta access and exclusive updates:
🌐 re-birth-woad.vercel.app/

Quick question to help me level up the app:
What kind of quests or rewards would you love to see in a real-life RPG like Re-Birth? 🎯⚔️

Appreciate your feedback — every bit helps make this experience legendary! 🛠️✨

Hello there, I'm new as well... It seems cool tht in what you are working now, certainly gamification is one of those thing what are going to dominate store apps next year, that's my thought hehe. What technologies are you using for the project?

Hey! Thanks, and welcome 😊 I totally agree — gamification is going to dominate the app space soon. I’m building a real-life RPG app inspired by the “System” from Solo Leveling. Right now, I’m using React Native, Node.js, and a few other tools depending on the feature — super fun to build!

If it sounds interesting to you, I’d love for you to sign up for the beta and give some early feedback through a short survey. You can check it out here: forms.gle/oiwe8nGABSAAt7SV6

And if you know anyone who’s into anime, fitness, or gamified apps, feel free to share it with them too — would really appreciate it 🙌

Hi everyone, I'm Steve of Steves Games.
I started designing and developing games using construct 3 a couple of years ago and loved it so much decided to try and start a company.
I have a game on Steam for sale (Jumping Steve) but no fans yet. I love creating anything, music, games or even sewing random creepy dolls. No one i know is into creating stuff so I'm looking around for some good communities.

Hey Steve! Sounds like we have similar interests. Im an artist-first so leaned into "creation" in various ways as well. That also got me into game-creation as the ultimate skill-flex lol. Happy to connect! 💜

I tried looking at your stuff on discord but I just couldn't find my way around, il try again when I'm at my laptop. It's a bit overwhelming trying to be sociable online. Hope you're having a good day.

👋 Hey everyone!

I'm a Full-Stack Engineer with a few years of experience, driven by a desire to solve real-world problems and build meaningful user experiences.

Although this account's been around for a while, I've only recently started using it — especially now that I've decided to dive into writing tech blog posts.

Just published my very first article on why I switched from Postman to Bruno for anyone curious:
👉 Ditching Postman: Why and How I Transitioned to Bruno

Excited to connect with all of you, learn from our journeys, and grow together with the community 😊
