About Exocus: Gamified Focus Timer
Exocus is a pixel-art, gamified focus timer app. Here, your focus is no longer boring, repetitive, or meaningless because every moment of your focus will transform your very own planet.
Do you struggle with staying motivated when you commit to doing something valuable in the long run, like learning new words, practicing an instrument, working out, or mastering a new language? Initially, you're full of enthusiasm, but soon, your passion wanes. Memorizing words becomes a chore, the instrument is neglected, workouts turn into a burden, and progress in the new language stalls...
You start doubting yourself: “Maybe I just don’t have what it takes to stick with long-term commitments.”
That’s not true! Let us explain the real reasons.
● Lack of Immediate Rewards:
You understand the long-term value of these tasks, but how much does this half-hour of focus matter right now?
● Repetition Leads to Boredom:
When the initial novelty wears off, the repetitive nature of the task can make you feel bored and tired.
● Overly Negative Focus:
Focusing on what you haven't accomplished rather than acknowledging what you have done can lead to negative self-evaluation and loss of motivation.
Let Exocus Help You!
====== Exocus Solutions ======
Exocus is a gamified focus timer that visualizes your concentration as a planet's evolution, helping you achieve long-term, pain-free focus.
● Emotional Design and Sense of Meaning
After each focus session, you’ll see the story of what happened to your planet during that time. Even five minutes of focus equals 38.53 million years of evolution for your planet, so your focus is crucial. Want to raise the stakes? You can enable “Hardcore Mode,” where failing to focus might cause your planet to be destroyed!
● Stage-Based Incentives
Short-term Incentives: After each focus session, the planet’s landscape changes and tells you its story.
Medium-term Incentives: After several hours of focus, the planet undergoes more significant transformations, like forming magma, oceans, and land.
Long-term Incentives: After around ten hours of focus, the planet completes its evolution. You can then add it to your star system, with each project corresponding to a star system, showcasing your long-term accumulation in that project.
● Continuous Freshness
We offer hundreds of unique planet designs, satisfying your curiosity and desire to collect with constant surprises. See a planet's full appearance only after evolving it through focused efforts. Earn Stardust coins by focusing to unlock new planet seeds, motivating continuous concentration.
====== What Makes Exocus Special? ======
● Meticulously Crafted Design
Exocus uses a unique pixel art style, maintaining simplicity while incorporating delightful little Easter eggs for you to discover. We believe the beauty of Exocus can bring joy, which will ultimately translate into more focused time.
● Fun Game Elements
Exocus embraces gamified design in a bold yet restrained and professional man
