- New RPG hopes to tackle procrastination and improve productivity
- Deadline Savior offers a fun way to complete boring tasks
- Insights into productivity peaks and task completion rates will be available
Deadline Savior, a game produced by Cointinue Games, has introduced a new way to stay productive.
Using the Pomodoro Technique, a popular time management method, the game alternates focus periods with short breaks, encouraging players to maintain a high concentration while completing tasks.
Each successful “Focus Session” grants the player’s in-game character the ability to explore monsters, battle monsters, and earn rewards. During ‘Rest Sessions’, players can review their progress, upgrade gear and strategize for the tougher challenges ahead.
A unique RPG experience with a purpose
Deadline Savior transforms completing tasks into an adventure, with your real-life success directly fueling your in-game journey.
The Steam store page highlights Deadline Savior’s familiar RPG elements, where players can select classes such as Paladin, Rogue, or Druid. The outcome of battles depends on carefully selected equipment and skills, requiring players to think strategically.
As characters level up, new abilities become available, adding depth and personalization to the gameplay. These classic fantasy mechanics ensure that the game remains engaging even during short play sessions and fits into work routines.
In addition to entertainment, the game offers practical task management tools. The store page states that Deadline Savior includes a multi-tiered task list, tracking the total focus time for each task. Players can also view up to 30 days of productivity data and identify patterns and bottlenecks in their workflow.
The game’s story reinforces this theme, placing players in the role of heroes destined to defeat the evil dragon ‘Procrastination’ and reclaim the Goddess’ Hourglass – a clever metaphor for regaining control of time.
Designed to reach a global audience, Deadline Savior offers a variety of language options to ensure accessibility for players worldwide. The game supports full interface and audio localization in popular languages such as English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Thai, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Korean and Russian.
In terms of system requirements, this game is optimized to run smoothly on a wide range of PCs. It requires at least an operating system of Windows 7 or higher, with a processor of 2.5 GHz or faster.
The game requires 4 GB of RAM and at least 1 GB of on-screen memory to run, with DirectX Version 9.0 also required for compatibility, making the game accessible to most players, even on older systems.
