## What is Control Act?

Control Act: Emotional Forge is a premium personal acting studio that fits right in your pocket. Train your attention, imagination, voice, diction, and emotional expressiveness entirely offline – no teacher, no director, and no internet required.

Start each day with a fresh etude on your home screen. Whether you are walking through a sandstorm or justifying a random pose, every exercise pushes you to take immediate action.

WARM-UP & BREATHING
Release physical clamps with guided routines for your neck, shoulders, jaw, and face. Master breathing techniques like 4-4-4, 4-7-8, and stage breathing using calming animated circles and precise haptic feedback.

ATTENTION & IMAGINATION
Sharpen your focus using the front camera – hold your gaze on your own pupil for 30 to 180 seconds. Explore small, middle, and large circles of attention with dynamic generative tasks. Find hidden details on your palm or observe the entire space around you.

ETUDES & ACTION
Justify random poses, which tracks your hands, legs, torso, and head in real time. Practice actions without objects – pour tea, peel an apple, or tie shoelaces with complete sincerity. Record your etudes locally with date stamps and personal comments.

JOURNAL & SELF-OBSERVATION
After every exercise, rate your honesty on a 0–10 slider. Pinpoint physical clamps on a detailed body map (neck, shoulders, back, jaw) and log your emotional state – from fear and joy to surprise and calm. Watch your progress through clear analytics graphs.

ACHIEVEMENTS & STREAKS
Stay motivated with a rich gamification system. Unlock badges for daily streaks (7, 30, 100 days), completing 100 etudes, mastering imagination, and discovering secret hidden achievements. Track your streak and  level right on the main screen.
