Compassion Game - A gamified app that motivates adopting a plant-based diet

Factory farming is a huge problem in today's world. Many people go vegan or vegetarian but 80% quit.
Compassion Game motivates people to adopt a plant-based diet. Keep healthy streaks alive, earn badges tied to real resources, and grow with the community.

Hello! In April 2022 I made a tough and impulsive decision to quit my job at my best friend's IoT hydroponic farming startup to devote myself full-time to the liberation of farmed animals movement. I spent a lot of time brainstorming what kind of activism to engage in and launched a content series (https://compassionplanet.space) as a first step. Rather than lead protests (although I still attend) or sell some new plant-based meat, my focus is on human-centered (web) apps to motivate players, based on game principles, to gradually adopt a more compassionate plant-based diet. I wrote a more in-depth blog post about why I built the game here: https://compassionplanet.space/c.... I am still looking for co-founders so if you or your friends think liberating farmed animals and entrepreneurship are cool like I do, please reach out!

This is a great idea! It looks like the initial version just scores based on vegan meal count (not vegetarian or any other variation). If the mission is "no matter what size of a step they want to begin with", then it would be great to see some other types of steps.

@amer_mallah Thanks for the feedback. I received a few similar responses from other players too. Definitely thinking about it for version 2.
