You speak into the void. It’s hard to participate. A Discord server is not a community.\n\nWe’re setting out to help people make meaningful connections in their communities and feel belonging through better-shared experiences. We give members easy and fun ways to participate.\n\nYour operators will now be able to design member experiences and get a real-time pulse on community engagement. Making participation tangible and fun. \n\n\n**Community is multiplayer.**\n\nPlaygotchi gamifies collective engagement where every member contributes to your community companion’s health. Community members get rewarded for their activity through playful interactions.\n\nMeasure what matters and get a tangible pulse on your growth and the relationships you’re building. Similar to quadratic funding: Instead of a small number of people doing the heavy lifting, you go farther when everyone collectively participates to keep the community thriving.\n\n![Playgotchi-Dashboard](https://images2.imgbox.com/c0/f3/wTQoDUzG_o.png)\n\n**Make the internet fun again.**\n\nBy assigning each community a unique virtual companion, Playgotchi helps you understand what meaningful involvement looks like week over week. Our main goal is to make measuring what matters a delightful experience anyone can do, and everyone is excited to take part in.\n\nThe health of the virtual companion corresponds with the overall health of the community. Community operators configure the engagement data they want to measure and track it through a real-time dashboard.\n\nThe platform encourages active participation as members' involvement, such as Discord posts and social media engagement, nurtures the community's virtual companion and rewards them with XP points. As the community prospers, members collectively achieve milestones, unlocking a variety of rewards that further enrich their experience.\n\nBy replacing traditional community metrics with this captivating, game-like model, Playgotchi fosters a sense of belonging and strengthens connections among members. The platform highlights the value of each contribution, ensuring that communities remain vibrant and engaged in a fun, interactive manner that traditional metrics simply cannot achieve.\n\n![Playgotchi-Game](https://images2.imgbox.com/78/4c/ubi02l0F_o.gif)\n\n**Help us hatch.**\n\nIn order to bring our MVP to life, we need your help.\n\nWe grew up in the era of Tamagotchi and Cool Math Games, exploring and learning via analog and early-digital experiences. We know how didactic experiences can help engage and capture people’s interest in a way no dashboard could.\n\nSo, now that we’re all grown up and looking to bring this sense of playfulness into our workspace. We gathered our inspiration from these experiences in a way that actually translates and gets the job done, no gimmicky virtual pets here. We’re using this interface as a vehicle for better connections among people.\n\nBy donating to this grant, you’ll be helping us experiment and see where this concept could lead us to. Specifically, we’ll be funding the following points for our first stages:\n\n* Launching a MVP to alpha test with at least one community.\n\n* Front and backend development\n\n* UX and UI design\n\n* Art and story\n\nWe’re excited to bring this idea to fruition and out in the open for people to play around with, we’re very open to hearing your feedback and cool ideas about how Playgotchi could fit your community’s need better!\n\n![Leapold-Dancing](https://images2.imgbox.com/b7/93/ytvLc54Q_o.gif)\n\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "playplaygotchi"}
