Everyone has a shadow.
Face yours.
It's the voice that says someone better will do it, that they'll think it's dumb, that now isn't the time. Every uncomfortable-but-good thing you do anyway is light against it. Log it in two taps, strike the shadow, and keep a card of every brave thing you've done.
Ten voices that hold you back. One at a time.
You start against The Doubter. Push it back with enough brave things and it breaks to dawn, and the next voice steps up. Each one is its own painting, and each one tells you its lie.
Face it, strike it, collect it, break to dawn.
The hard part is real life. The app is the two taps afterward, and the shadow that cracks because of them.
Do the uncomfortable thing
Apply, reach out, ask, speak up, ship the work. The hard part is real life. The app is the two taps afterward: what you faced, and how it felt.
Every act hits the shadow
Lightning cracks across the shadow and your light rises out of it. Dread hits hardest, ×1.5, and a daily streak multiplies it again, up to ×1.5.
Pull a card for what you did
Every act goes into your collection. Face a Dread and you pull a Mythic: gold foil, holo sheen, and your own words across it.
Face it down. Meet the next one.
Push a shadow all the way back and it breaks to dawn. Then the next voice steps up, from The Doubter to The Last Voice. Your light never fades.

Face a Dread. Pull a Mythic.
Every act you log becomes a card, filed in an album under the shadow you faced it against. The ones that roared, the Dread-grade acts, pull a Mythic: rays turn behind a gold-foil card that flies in and tilts, a holo sheen sweeps across it, and what you actually did lands across the front.
It's the receipt for the thing you almost didn't do. Share it, or keep it in your collection for the next time the voice says you can't.
Punch the card. Light the year.
Pick one thing to do more of this month and watch the holes fill in gold. Then look back on a whole year of it, every day lit by the hardest thing you faced.
Pick an action and a number, like reach out 10 times in October. Every time you do it, a hole lights and the shadow above the ticket takes the hit. Put a promise on it if you like (if I miss, I'll buy Sam lunch) and let a friend hold you to it. Nothing is paid through the app; it runs on the honor system.
A year of light
Tap a dayTap any day to see its cards. Under the year, every shadow you've faced down gets its own fanned stack, with its count, its Mythics and its grade split. Built to stay smooth past a thousand cards.
The real thing, screen by screen.
Not mockups. Actual screens from the app, with a year of brave things already in it.
Your shadow, today
The voice you're facing, its lie, and how far you've pushed it back.
How did it feel, honestly?
Unease, Fear or Dread. Two taps and it's logged.
A Mythic pull
Every Dread act pulls a gold-foil card of what you did.
This month's card
Every time you do it, a hole lights up in gold.
A year of light
Every day lit by its hardest act, and a stack for every shadow.
Ten shadows to face
From The Doubter to The Last Voice.
Everything you do to grow, brought into the light.
Each screen does one job, and all of it lives on your device.
How did it feel, honestly?
Two taps: what you faced, then how it felt. Harder acts earn more light, and every Dread pulls a Mythic card.
Keep the Flame Lit
A daily streak builds momentum that multiplies every act, up to ×1.5. Glimmers along the way earn lanterns, and a lantern keeps the streak alive on a missed day.
Today's Step
The next thing you planned sits right under the shadow's bar on Home, one tap from done.
The Honest Mirror
Weekly recaps, an "are you getting braver?" trend, and a fears-vs-reality gap that shows how rarely it was as bad as you feared.
Marks of Courage
Badges for your first Dread, a week of trials, a flame that came back, and your first dawn.

What's in the pack.
Straight answers, no fine print.
A tracker for doing the uncomfortable-but-good things that grow you: applying, reaching out, asking, speaking up, sharing your work. Everyone has a shadow, the voice that says someone better will do it. Every brave thing you log is light against it, so facing your fears becomes progress you can see.
Anything that stretches your comfort zone and you can start today, on your own: send the message, ask the question, post the work, make the call. The outcome is never the requirement; facing it is the win. Rejection counts in full, and backing out is still a step.
You say how each thing felt, honestly: Unease (a whisper), Fear (a shout) or Dread (a roar). Harder grades earn more light, ×1.25 for Fear and ×1.5 for Dread, and a daily streak multiplies everything on top, up to ×1.5. Every Dread also pulls a Mythic card.
Every act you log becomes a card in your collection, filed under the shadow you faced it against. Dread acts pull Mythic cards in gold foil. Separately, a monthly punch card lets you pick one action and a number for the month and light a hole each time you do it.
Never. Miss a day and the streak's momentum resets, and a lantern you earned can keep the streak alive, but every bit of light you've gained is yours for good. Braveclimb rewards showing up, not punishing you for a gap.
Yes. The Original skin in Settings swaps the shadows for a night mountain and a campfire: the same game, measured in meters up real peaks from Mount Olympus to Everest.
No account. Braveclimb is local-first: everything you log stays on your device and works offline, and you can export a backup any time. Builds with an analytics key send anonymous usage counts (never your notes, names, or anything you typed), and there's an off switch in Settings.
Your shadow is talking. Prove it wrong.
No account and no subscription. Log your first uncomfortable thing, strike The Doubter, and pull your first card. Coming to iOS: join the waitlist and we'll tell you the day it's live.
