Hi Product Hunt! I'm excited to introduce Focumon, a productivity app with a fun twist inspired by Pokémon! As an indie developer, I've created Focumon to combine gamification with customizable productivity tools, making to fun to stay motivated. You can earn rewards, level up, and enjoy a unique, engaging way to stay on track with your goals. Plus, Focumon is community-first and you can hang out and stay accountable with like-minded trainers by forming Focus Parties! I'm still in the early stages of this journey and would love to hear your thoughts and ideas. Your feedback is incredibly valuable to me as I continue to develop and improve Focumon. Thank you for checking it out!

Nothing beats gamification, especially when it comes to habit forming. This is a solid approach @milton_ren. What inspired this product?
Milton Ren
@perewari Thanks Pere! I made a very similar product last year called Focusverse, which was kinda meh but there was a handful of users sticking around. So I decided to make a 10x better version for them early this year!

Hi @milton_ren ! I'm happy to see your post. I absolutely LOVE Focumon and the effort you've put into it. After using Focumon, I couldn't help but wonder: Who is Milton Ren? How did you come up with such an incredible app? What was going through your mind when you created Focumon? And why is 'Productivity' so important to you? I'd love to hear your story. How about we grab a coffee and chat?

A great product, encourages focusing and can act even as full fledged todo-list manager if you like long-list time management systems like those of Mark Forster (FVP, Do it tomorrow, Autofocus). Strongly recommended
Milton Ren
@vlachbild Thank you so much for the recommendation!
Anson Chan
That's really an interesting app! Are the art assets AI-generated?
Milton Ren
@bdm Nope! All of the art were hand-made with a lot of love ❤️
William Jin
Congrats on launching Focumon! How does the gamification enhance productivity?
Milton Ren
@william_jin Thanks! For a lot of the people the game setting helps adding a reward/meaning layer on top of their daily goals, which boosts focus and reduces procrastination. However it certainly doesn't work for everyone. Give it a try and let me know how it goes!

Focumon looks amazing! As a productivity enthusiast who loves gaming, this feels like the perfect blend. Turning work sessions into a Pokémon-style adventure is such a clever idea. I can already imagine how collecting and leveling up pixel monsters would make my Pomodoro sessions more engaging. The social aspect of connecting with other "trainers" worldwide is a great touch too. It could really help with motivatio. I'm curious - how customizable are the Pomodoro/flow timer settings? Being able to adjust these to fit different work styles would be super helpful.
Milton Ren
@allen_xu1130 Thanks for asking! The timers are actually super flexible, to the point I think I need to simplify them a bit. You can read more about the focus protocol here https://focumon.com/about - also there's a new optional time-blocking feature where you can use to plan your day ahead! https://www.focumon.com/stack
