New Octalysis Prime Theme Song
My most important project thus far
For those who have been following me, you’ll know that Octalysis Prime is my most important project thus far. I plan to share the entirety of my useful knowledge in this gamified platform.
Currently my 500-page book Actionable Gamification is only about 15% of the knowledge base. With 400 videos and more every week on OP (About 5-10 min on average), I plan to eventually get as close to 100% as possible.
My end goal is to leave this for my two daughters Symphony and Harmony. If one day I get hit by a bus, I’ll know that everything I want to teach my children is already in this platform.
So far we have hundreds of passionate members participating, learning, and upgrading their lives.
The Octalysis Prime Theme Song Launches
This week I’m most excited about the launch of our Octalysis Framework Prime Theme Song by talented musician Melody Hwang. It turned out brilliantly and feels like a fully legitimate contemporary pop song with a game angle to it.
I first approached Melody via her Kickstarter project and asked her if she could create something similar to the One-Punch Man Theme Song. I gave her some suggested lyrics and then off she went — creating this masterpiece that is now my favorite song BY FAR.
The song captures the spirit of Core Drive 1: Epic Meaning & Calling — the sense that what you are doing matters deeply and is part of something greater. It also embodies Core Drive 7: Unpredictability & Curiosity, keeping listeners engaged with its surprising, game-inspired composition style.
Enjoy the song!
