How to plan updates without over-scoping
A practical roadmap starts with polish, then adds small content, an event, and retention systems that a solo or small team can actually ship.
How to use it
- + Enter the current launch stage and biggest weakness.
- + Review each week's feature, reward, and metric.
- + Cut any feature that is too large for the team size.
Example outputs
- + Week 1: onboarding polish and clearer rewards.
- + Week 2: one new area or upgrade path.
- + Week 4: daily goals and a collection board.
Common mistakes
- + Adding a large new system before the first session is stable.
- + Shipping events with fake urgency or unclear rewards.
- + Ignoring metrics after each update.
