Multiplayer productivity
This newsletter was brought to you byTempoRemember the whole Elon vs Zuck fight? Well, it’s apparently still going ahead, and Musk thinks there could be a chance it could take place in the Colosseum. As in, the gladiator arena from Ancient Rome. Yeah, we’re not so sure. Â
PARENTS WERE WRONG
Remember when you were a kid playing video games, and your parents would give you a speech on how you need to be more productive with your time? Well, why does it have to be one or the other?Â
Meet Focusverse, an app that combines two things our parents never thought would go together: productivity and gaming.Â
Gotta catch ‘em all: A multiplayer platform built around a Pomodoro timer, it allows you to connect with friends and challenge each other to stay productive. The more productive you are, the more Focúmon (Focusverse’s version of Pokémon) you earn.
Alongside collecting little monsters, you can unlock rewards through productivity challenges and connect with other players across the globe to stay accountable together.Â
So if you want to prove your parents wrong and show them that gaming is a real job
