Seems pretty well done, though text is microscopic on Android. I can see paying $5 for it one time. Would never consider the $40 subscription.

    Yeah, this monetization approach is a complete no-go.

    If everything runs in the device, as advertised, an one-time fee is the only reasonable $ option.

Huh this is cool. Was thinking about earlier that it must be a lot easier to make motion capture games now.

Are there any new dance style games?

As an aside wonder if there is something to adding game/gambling mechanics to exercise.

    I propose "Professional Arm Wrestling": All the drama, none of the effort.

    Put your elbow on the table, hold your phone in your hand, and pantomime professionally arm wrestling opponents over the internet: make dramatic gestures, grunt, scream, trash talk, and cuss out your online opponent.

    Professional wrestling is already all acting, so you don't need fancy force feedback or actual arm strength. Just perform the struggle, fake the comeback, and pretend your phone weighs 300 pounds.

    That's the entire premise of DDR and PIU. Throw Max 300 on and that's pretty much the definition of HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training).

    I picked up a Madcatz Xbox Pump Exceed pad years ago, stapled it onto a 3/4" plywood board with medium gauge vinyl covering and pretty much play every day.

It looks super nice but camera seems a bit though for my phone (pixel battery is dying), is there any plan for more exercises than only pushups?

I run outta ammo after one pushup :sad_cat_emoji:

looks fun and much more entertaining than the hundred pushups program.
