#[HabitRPG](http://habitrpg.com/)

[HabitRPG](http://habitrpg.com/) is a habit tracker app which treats your goals like a Role Playing Game. As you accomplish goals, you level up. If you fail your goals, you lose hit points. Lose all your HP and you die.

##FAQ

###What is habit tracking?

See [Trackers vs Lifehackers](http://blog.beeminder.com/trackhack/) for a description and more habit tracking examples.
  
###This is confusing

If you played RPGs (Role Playing Games) growing up, this app will make sense to you; otherwise, it might be overwhelming at first. Be sure to follow the tutorial when you first load the website. If it's still not your cup of tea, checkout [Trackers vs Lifehackers](http://blog.beeminder.com/trackhack/) for alternatives.

###How do I heal?

After you play for a while you unlock the Item Store, from which you can buy health potions. Also, HP resets upon leveling up (everyone knows that!).
  
###All my tasks are red, I'm dying too fast

This is good. The worse you are at a task, the more valuable it becomes - meaning you gain more experience for completing those red tasks. This will incentivise you to try harder and to focus on the more difficult tasks. If you *really* need a bail-out, you can "Re-Roll" from the item store for $1, which resets all your tasks to a clean slate. It costs real money to prevent you from abusing it.
  
###How do I log in / save my data?

HabitRPG is built on [DerbyJS](http://derbyjs.com/), which doesn't yet support authentication. As soon as EveryAuth becomes available to Derby, I'll implement it - that and the other network integration aspects on the roadmap. You can follow the progress [here](https://github.com/lefnire/habitrpg/issues/3).

In the meantime, a workaround has been built to use a private url, similar to Workflowy's shared lists, which you can use to access your account from multiple computers. Click the top-right profile button and bookmark the URL it provides.
