Hard Reset

Hard Reset - The Game Powered by Your Life
This isn't gamified productivity. It's not badges for brushing your teeth. Hard Reset is a full cyberpunk roguelike deckbuilder that happens to be powered by your real-world accomplishments.

Your Life Fuels the Fight
Every real task you complete earns Action Points (AP). Use them to move through the city, attach new hardware, mod your cyborg body, and unleash devastating combos against the oligarchs and their henchmen controlling a dystopian city.

Deep Roguelike Gameplay
- Procedurally generated runs ensure every attempt feels fresh
- Build synergistic decks from cybernetic hardware and wetware insights
- Permanent meta-progression unlocks new cards, abilities, and story paths
- Three acts culminating in a final Act IV boss fight

A Narrative That Matters
You're a cyborg resistance fighter battling through a corrupt city to free the people from the Oligarch's rule. Each death brings resurrection via recloning. A cast of animated characters with their own agendas and stories unfolds as you make friends and enemies. Nothing is as it seems in this twisting story.

Based on Behavioral Science
Designed using principles from contingency management therapy, Hard Reset transforms task completion into genuine gameplay. This isn't a checklist with RPG elements bolted on—it's a complete game that harnesses your real-world momentum.

Features:
Strategic deckbuilding with meaningful choices
A checklist which supports basically every possible task/routine type
Animated cyberpunk art for all major characters and most cards
No ads, no manipulative monetization
Created by a solo developer obsessed with checklists
