Thank you! There is no option for that yet, but cycling basically does work if you have your phone in your pocket, or you use your watch on iOS in what we call "ankle monitor" mode. Current thinking is that we want to keep it steps based, but proper cycling support is planned. Manually adding activities likely won't be a thing other than maybe in the single player mode, as that could be abused by players way too easily.

Hello Lemmy!

It's been almost 6 months since I last posted here, and the reception here on Lemmy for our game has been awesome. We have another Wave going on right now, and also I have created a community here on lemmy as well ([email protected]) where I've been posting all of the development blogs and updates.

We have Wave 4 now on-going, and it's running until 8th of June. If you want to gain direct access to the game, you can support the development or you can also apply for free beta access.

Since last post, we've added quite a lot of new content, including an entirely new skill, and adding support for smart watches on iOS, which has been one of the most frequently requested features. Support for smart watches on Android is coming later on as well!

If you haven’t heard about the game before, I started this project as a personal hobby project to help myself walk more. I tried most of the games available, but I wanted to have something that didn’t need attention while walking and wouldn’t have predatory monetization like most mobile games tend to have these days.

The game is inspired by RuneScape, and you level up skills, craft gear, find loot and so on by walking IRL. We have a short introduction video to the game where I explain and show how the game works in more detail. The video is a bit outdated nowadays, but fundamentals of the game are still the same.

We've also updated our
roadmap to the game just few days ago, as we're now switching our focus to finish up the big three remaining features after which we can launch the open beta.

Thanks again Lemmy for all the support we've gained from here. The feedback has also been awesome, and the encouragement we've had from your comments have meant a lot to all of us working on the game!

I'll be answering all comments, feedback and questions here. Stay hydrated and keep walking everyone!

I heard about this on Reddit, glad to see it has made its way to the Fediverse. I am curious what you are using to develop this, since I've also been interested in making my own personal walking app (not going to be competition, only ever intended to release to myself and maybe a few friends).

Thank you so much! When did you apply to the Closed Beta? We did accept before the current wave practically everyone who had applied before it launched.

If you applied long time ago, make sure to check out https://portal.walkscape.app/account page if you already have got the access but missed the email.

Our artist is recreating all of the in-game locations in isometric style, and our plan is to soon-ish start to implement these into the game itself. Creating all of the 40+ locations takes some time for our artist, especially these city locations.

And thank you so much ️

I was accepted into the beta, but I'm unable to find the app in the store. I joined the google group, but I'm not sure what else to check. When I follow the link it shows the app in the browser, but when I try to find it with the play store app it can't be found. Any ideas?

Heard about this on Reddit.

In the last two months I've been walking a lot more (aiming for 30K steps over day, although my average has been closer to 20K).

Will have to check this out.

Make sure that you're logged into Google Play with the same google account you joined the Group with. If you have more than one google account, this is very likely the cause of the issue.
