gamified habit tracker
so i love video games, and i've always been fascinated by how they keep you hooked. the psychology used in apps like duolingo (streaks, levels, ranks) is insane, I wanted that same feeling but for real life habits.
i tried habitica. couldn't get around it. felt like i was doing more app management than actual habit building. too complex, too focused on cosmetics. (but it is a decent app overall)
so i just built my own. i'm 17, just finished school, zero coding knowledge , built the whole thing on lovable, but the idea and the prompts was done by me only.
it's called Synapse.
the idea is simple — you log a "quest" for the day (one-time or repeating). complete it, the battle is won. you get XP, you level up, you build streaks. ranks go from Novice all the way to Legendary.
my favorite feature is the Power Grid — 5 dimensions of your life (health, studies, spirit, will, skills). every quest is tagged to 1-2 of them. as you complete quests, those dimensions grow. visualized as an animated hexagonal chart (inspired by the game dispatch, amazing game btw). it basically shows you what kind of person you're actually building.
there's also War Band — invite your friends, see their quests, levels, ranks. healthy competition hits different when it's people you actually know.
dark UI, neon aesthetic, full RPG feel. All the titles, elements are inspired from RPG games
i built this as a practice project but it turned into something i actually use daily. would love brutal feedback — what works, what doesn't, what's missing.

it is NOT AN AD, i just want some honest feedback
