jinni

/jinni16

A self-actualization game based on tamagotchis helping startup societies maximize community health. Play in real life with friends and watch your avatar evolve. Like Pokemon GO for personal growth! jinni.health

I realized one of the main things stressing me while building /jinni was all the changes ive been making and worrying ill break something.

So i finally got serious and started testing frontend + backend this week. Hundreds of more to go but big 0->1 moment.

Feels good to formalize progress and set yourself up for future success at the same time 💪
Dope user research and player onboarding session last week. She loves Hello Kitty merch and bought a HK tamagotchi recently. Literally my ideal target player. Got lots of great feedback on design and gameplay. She loved the NFC card interactions ;)

Also my first time explaining the game in Japanese. Was pretty rough but now I know “self-actualization game” is 自己実現ゲーム and people get it almost immediately when i add たまごっちは君のデータを食べる. Definitely needs work still 😝.
