Flare for gamified workout rpg?

I'd like to make an RPG that gamifies working out. Players would level up their stats by working out (e.g., level up agility by going for a run). Ideally it would (at least for some features like running) be tied to a wearable such as Fitbit. Would it be possible to create such an RPG using Flare?
If the input was translated to a gamepad or some other kind of option like that. Out of the box Flare has no Fitbit capability unless it is basically a small computer and even then it is not viable. I think Unity has more hokey input set ups and it has more options for one can make custom inputs for instance VR. Or if you get really stuck just pay some dev on freelancer who knows how to code for Unity. Flare in general is optimized / specialized for PC; everything is built around PC expectations; even the gamepad control system is for PC.
