Currently, we are only using the step tracking function, but depending on the duration of the pandemic, we will allow users to earn Aura from lifting weights to yoga to rock climbing to swimming.Īura can be used for fully paid games to $10-$50 gift cards for any console (including mobile) to currency in a specific game to DLC and recently fitness classes.
Users receive Aura for every 1,000 steps synced from Google Fit or Apple Health. This way you don’t have to get fit with a game you no longer care about. My vision was to develop an app that not only emphasizes fitness and social interaction, but also works for ANY game. However, people lost interest a few months later because they got bored of the game like Wii Fit or Beat Saber. In that first month of launch, it felt like world peace – people were outside exploring trails, all kinds of people from different generations were mingling, and small businesses were booming. When Pokemon Go came out, I started to walk 6 miles to work instead of driving, hoping to catch new Pokemon. It made me realize I cared more about my own character than my own health. I have always struggled to stay motivated to exercise, even when I did have free time. What was your inspiration behind launching Hero Trainer? The goal is to help gamers get physically and mentally fit. Users sync their steps with Google Fit or Apple Health, earn Aura for every 1,000 steps, and then redeem Aura for fully paid games, gift cards, premium game items, and more.
