Pushup RPG Turns Reps Into Combat
A fitness RPG uses on-device camera tracking to count pushups and squats, turning each clean repetition into damage against monsters, progress, and loot.
Field notes
The app uses the phone’s front camera to assess form and count repetitions, then maps each clean rep to combat damage, XP, loot, and progression through a skill tree. Its scope goes beyond solo exercise: users can join guilds, contribute to a shared weekly boss, compete on worldwide, national, or friend-only ladders, and enter camera-based 40-second arena matches. The site says pose detection runs in memory on-device and that no video or pose data is uploaded.
