I'm building a real-life RPG system inspired by Solo Leveling

Like many of you, I'm a developer with a love for anime- especially Solo Leveling.

There's something about watching a character like Sung Jin-woo go from wake to unstoppable, leveling up through sheer effort, deiscipline, and grind- that just sticks with you.
I remember thinking one night:
"What if life had a leveling system?"

A system that rewards daily consistency, punishes porcrastination like it's a boss fight, and actually tracks your real-world stat growth like Strength,Focus,Discipline....

So I started building it.

⚔️ Introducing Re-Birth

Re-Birth is a real-life RPG app that transforms your personal goals-fitness, habits, productivity- into a system of quests, stat growth, and level-up.

This isn't just another gamified to-do list. It's a Solo Leveling inspired freamwork for real-life transformation.

💡 How it works:

  • You get a Character Panel with stats like Strength, Vitality, Intelligence, and mare.

  • Your real-world actions(like workouts, journaling, focused work) give you XP.

  • You unlock new quests, streak bonuses, and rare achievements.

  • There's even a "Dungeon Mode"- time-boxed grind sessions for high focus day.

I'm building it solo-designing the system, coding the app, and handling animations that mirror the vibes of real RPGs. Think of it like the System from Solo Leveling- but it lives in your phone.

🔧 Why I'm Building It

As devs, we love systems. we love feedback loops. We love leveling up.

But real life is full of undefined goals, delayed rewards, and burnout. I wanted to build something thst makes self-improvement feel like a game- where you're excited to wake up and do the next quest.

*🧙 Who It’s For *

  • Anime & manga fans who dream of grinding like Jin-Woo.

  • Fitness lovers who want stat-based tracking.

  • Devs and creators who want to level up in focus and consistency.

  • Anyone tired of "boring" productivity apps that feel more like chores than games.
