Is this a real productivity app or just a game?
Both — and that's the point. The task management system is fully functional, clean, and built to the standard of dedicated productivity apps like Todoist. The game layer sits alongside it, not on top of it. You can use 8Bit Startup as a serious productivity tool and the game makes sure you actually do.
When can I use the app?
8Bit Startup is currently in development. Join the waitlist to be among the first to get access when we launch — founding members get early access and a permanently discounted rate locked in for as long as they stay subscribed.
Who is this built for?
8Bit Startup is built for online entrepreneurs and solopreneurs who grew up playing video games. If you're building something on your own, you struggle to stay consistent and motivated, and you've always felt like productivity tools were a bit soulless — this was made for you.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The core experience — task management, game progression, and office building — is free to use. Paid plans unlock deeper game content, advanced progression, and productivity insights for founders who want to go further.
How much does it cost?
Founding members get full access for £39/year — locked in permanently at that rate for as long as they stay subscribed. After the founding period closes, standard pricing will be £7/month or £49/year. Spots are limited.
