Hello again, Product Hunt! 🤙
Let’s be honest: there are a lot of habit tracking apps. Many are even gamified. But none capture the same satisfaction of building something from scratch like in Civilization or SimCity.
That’s why I made Habit Island, a strategy-inspired habit tracker where your consistency powers a growing island civilization. Here’s what makes it different:
🏝 Build Your Island Civilization
Start with a small patch of land and slowly grow your domain. Unlock new tiles, clear terrain, and design your island layout as your daily routine strengthens.
💎 Progress Powers Growth
Every completed habit earns gems you can use to expand your land, harvest resources, and upgrade buildings, turning your daily consistency into visible growth.
📊 Visualize Your Momentum
Display your habits in a clean checklist or switch to a heatmap-style contribution graph to watch your progress compound over time.
I built Habit Island for people who love strategy games and want that same sense of steady progress in real life. I’d love your thoughts and ideas on what you’d like to see in future updates!
@damehero This is so creative. First time I'm seeing this kind of design. Why do you think gamification is so powerful for habit formation? And how do you balance fun and productivity without making habits feel trivialized?
Gamifying habits through kingdom-building is a clever take — the visual progress of your kingdom growing as you stick to habits creates a tangible reward loop. What happens when you break a streak? Does part of the kingdom fall?
A fun take on the traditional habit app will always draw me in. Going to give this a try over the next few weeks.
A quick first take, when interacting with the map, it'd be nice to pinch to zoom out.
Absolutely loving this idea! Congratulations on the product and the launch!
Do you differentiate between types of habits? I immediately thought about the idea behind Atomic Habits, but I'm not sure if it's aligned with your vision for the growth of the product.
I like the idea of turning consistency into a visible kingdom!
Is there any built-in procrastination prevention? :D
This is like Sims (hopefully used for productive "wasting time") – aka doing something meaningful to create my island :D
Love this! As a programmer, it feels familiar with that GitHub contribution graph vibe, and it also brings back memories of playing Warcraft as a child. Will be using it over the upcoming days and hopefully it keeps me motivated :)
