Focumon – Turn your work into a multiplayer adventure
I was on the eternal quest of searching for a properly gamified productivity app that keeps me motivated throughout the day and in the long term. After a few months of a fruitless search, I made up my mind and decided to build it myself! I've since launched FocuMon a little over a month ago. Quite a few early users told me it has helped them stay focused, so I'm excited to share it on HN for ya'll to try it out and let me know how I can make it better!

In plain words
Focumon is a gamified productivity app that rewards work by letting users collect, level up, and evolve digital monsters as they complete tasks. Designed for people seeking long-term motivation, it combines an idle game experience with focus tools, offering both single-player progression and multiplayer adventuring with users worldwide. The app steps back once users enter a flow state, providing motivation to begin work rather than constant distraction.

In the maker’s words, at launch
I was on the eternal quest of searching for a properly gamified productivity app that keeps me motivated throughout the day and in the long term. After a few months of a fruitless search, I made up my mind and decided to build it myself! I've since launched FocuMon a little over a month ago. Quite a few early users told me it has helped them stay focused, so I'm excited to share it on HN for ya'll to try it out and let me know how I can make it better! FocuMon is like an idle Pokémon game where you can collect, level up, and evolve cute monsters by being productive! It puts a reward layer on top of your work which helps to give you an initial boost to get into focus; it then gets out of your way once you are in the flow :) I'm actively developing more features & game modes for FocuMon. It is also a multiplayer-first app where you can adventure together with people from all over the world! Cheers and thanks for your time! Milton
