TapGeoHunt - iPhone Game breaking the Angry Animal mould

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

TapGeoHunt - iPhone Game breaking the Angry Animal mould - Published on 02/23/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

With over 500,000 Apps now live for the iPhone, and a large chunk of those being games, the launch of a new iPhone App game is usually not that big-a-deal, especially since many of these new games are trying to replicate the success of some of the more prominent App games. One can only get so excited by the latest Miffed Moggies or Perturbed Pigs before you realise barriers are no longer being broken. Thankfully the launch of new iPhone App game TapGeoHunt is refreshingly different.

New York, New York - With over 500,000 Apps now live for the iPhone, and a large chunk of those being games, the launch of a new iPhone App game is usually not that big-a-deal, especially since many of these new games are trying to replicate the success of some of the more prominent App games. One can only get so excited by the latest 'Miffed Moggies' or 'Perturbed Pigs' before you realise barriers are no longer being broken.

Thankfully the launch of new iPhone App game TapGeoHunt see's a refreshingly different approach to great effect. TapGeoHunt is similar to a traditional treasure hunt game, where groups of individuals, or teams, race to find hidden clues or trinkets. The twist being that TapGeoHunt uses Augmented Reality to facilitate the game play. Using the camera in the iPhone the game shows the player what they actually see before them in the real world, but with the addition of a game objects layer overlaid, meaning the player can see treasure chests, zombies, ghosts and more in and about their defined real world play area.

Using simple compass directional controls and distance to next 'Hunt Point' the game allows for seamless game play with the iPhone's built-in capabilities and delivers a more 'playable by all' approach than having to solve clues to find each location.

At the core of the game play each team or individual must get within 10 metres of each 'Hunt Point' to be able to tap the Augmented Reality object, earn points, and reveal more of the game's storyboard. Each game can have as many Hunt Points as you wish and can be placed anywhere you want with simple map and pin controls.

The game provides 4 different hunt themes including Pirates, Zombies, Ghosts and Cops & Robbers, which will provide more than enough variety for regular players, but probably more useful for corporate team building games and promotional events is the game's ability to record videos to be played back at each Hunt Point.

Parents can create a controlled area for their children's hunt games, keeping them within an area that's safe. For workers lunchtime will never be dull again, by creating lunchtime hunts with colleagues, even including places to go to pick up lunch! Create hunts across your park, village, town or city, adding as many teams as you wish, all racing against the clock and each other to get to the finish.

Using the Video functionality is perfect for your organisation's team building motivational exercises, or promotional events. You can record company messages, motivational, or promo videos, to be played to participants at each Hunt Point and set the final Hunt Point, where all participants arrive, to the location of your event or party.

TapGeoHunt creator Ian Naylor said "being a parent I've noticed that these days kids are more and more reaching for their parents iPhones and submersing themselves in popular games such as AngryBirds. I wanted to create a game that was more inclusive and gets you off your bum and out into the real world."

The idea of MMOGs (Massive Multiplayer Online Games) is not new, but typically a MMOG locks the player in front of their gaming console and submerses them in a Persistent or Virtual world. With TapGeoHunt, you're playing in the real world, using Augmented Reality technology to map the game objects wherever you choose.

The idea that lots of people can play against each other, or join together in teams, get out of the house or office and have fun and maybe a little exercise to boot is a powerful combination. From trials done during the games development users certainly enjoyed this new slant on the MMOG.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation) and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 7.7 MB

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Today, entertainment software company Zyqued Inc. released Dishum, a casual game available for free download for iOS devices like iPad and iPhone, Windows Phone, Android Mobile Devices, and PCs and Macs. Dishum, Zyqued's latest release, pits the player against an alien invasion force. The player must defeat the enemy's flotilla of floating heads, shooting around enemy's force fields. Gameplay is intuitive, but the later levels become extremely challenging.

Franklin Park, New Jersey - Dishum, a casual game for mobile devices and PCs, is now available for free download. Released today by Zyqued Inc., Dishum features addictive yet easy-to-learn gameplay and worldwide competition for top scores.

Dishum, Zyqued's latest release, pits the player against an alien invasion force. The player must defeat the enemy's flotilla of floating heads, shooting around enemy's force fields. Gameplay is intuitive, but the later levels become extremely challenging. With limited time and ammo, the player's skills will be tested in both of the game modes, "Classic", which allows the player to start from any completed level, and "Challenge Mode", in which the player has just one shot to rack up as many points as possible.

According to Joseph Tharayil, Creative Director at Zyqued Inc., one of the most exciting of Dishum's features is its competition system. He says "When you're playing Dishum, you're trying to beat your own best scores, but you're also competing against players from Iowa to India. To make it even more interesting, you can only submit your scores from Challenge mode, using either your Facebook account or Zyqued Games Gamer Account."

Dishum can be played on the iPhone, iPad, and Android Tablets, as well as Android-powered mobile phones and Windows Phones. In its mobile iteration, Dishum is a tilt-based tap-to-shoot game. According to Joseph Tharayil, "The intuitive controls and short levels make Dishum great for fast, on-the-go play, while the ability to access your Gamer Account and upload your score from your mobile device add an exciting competitive element".

According to Technical Director Joy Sebastian, Zyqued will be releasing regular updates for Dishum. " Updates will include new features, additional levels, and new gameplay modes. We will soon be starting monthly contests in which players will have opportunity to win attractive prizes."

Dishum is available for free download from Apple's App Store, the Android Market, and the Windows Phone WP App Hub. For PCs and Macs, Dishum can be downloaded from Zyqued's website.

Tumult Inc. Releases Hype 1.5 Update - Published on 02/23/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Tumult Inc. today released Hype 1.5, a major update to its award-winning HTML5 animation builder for Mac OS X. The new version contains over 30 new features that give animators substantially more control over creating animations. The update also includes support for exporting content as an iBooks Author widget allowing textbook publishers to create breathtaking animated graphics. It is available today as a free upgrade.

Cupertino, California - Tumult Inc. today released Hype 1.5, a major update to its award-winning HTML5 animation builder for Mac OS X. The new version contains over 30 new features, including a refined animation building interface, element grouping, scene zooming, locking and visibility toggles, better Lion support, rulers, guidelines, improved animation pasting, more timing functions such as bouncing, and significant reductions to exported file sizes. It is available today as a free upgrade.

The 1.5 version of Tumult Hype also includes support for exporting content as an iBooks Author widget. This allows textbook publishers to create infographics with breathtaking animations and interactivity.

"Version 1.5 knocks out our top requested features, taking it from a 1.0 to a mature product. Professional designers will be delighted with the new capabilities and control for creating rich HTML5 animations. We're also proud of the numerous bug fixes and performance enhancements," says Jonathan Deutsch, founder of Tumult Inc. He adds, "With Adobe recently dropping support for Mobile Flash, Tumult Hype has become a critical tool to making animated content for smartphones and tablets."

Tumult Hype is primarily targeted at designers wanting to add effects to their sites, developers who need the capability to make content for iOS devices, and HTML5 coders looking for more effective ways to improve interactivity. It supports the latest HTML5/CSS3 features and utilizes an intuitive keyframe-based animation system with a recorder to create effective motions and transitions. No coding is required, though animations can be extended via Javascript API. Tumult Hype has been used by news/media organizations such as the LA Times, Washington Post, and Reuters for infographics, advertising agencies for animated ads, K-12 and higher education to create interactive lessons, NASA to show exploration roadmaps, and by many designers adding wow-factor to their sites.

EditShare Shifts Into High Gear For 168 Hours

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

EditShare Shifts Into High Gear For 168 Hours - Published on 02/23/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

EditShare, the leader in shared media storage and end-to-end tapeless workflow solutions, recently joined up with Doug Braddock and his production crew to sponsor the team's efforts in completing a film in just seven days. Their film, Mirror Mirror, has been entered into the 168 Hour Film Project, a Hollywood film incubator that attracts 70+ teams each year. The project is a competition in which production teams have exactly one week - no more, no less - to film and edit an 11-minute movie.

Boston, Massachusetts - EditShare, the technology leader in shared media storage and end-to-end tapeless workflow solutions, recently joined up with Doug Braddock and his production crew to sponsor the team's efforts in completing a film in just seven days. Their film, Mirror Mirror, has been entered into the 168 Hour Film Project, a Hollywood film incubator that attracts 70+ teams each year. The project is a competition in which production teams have exactly one week - no more, no less - to film and edit an 11-minute movie.

"There was an enormous amount of work to get through. Planning and preparation had to be meticulous and there was no latitude for serious technical problems to occur. We had to hand in our master exactly one week (168 hours) from rolling-camera," says Braddock. "If we were one second late, we would have been disqualified."

Braddock's production team consists of about 30 people, some with decades of industry experience, others just a few years out of film school. For the 168-hour project, they worked with a cast of four, plus six extras. With only a few days to shoot and edit the entire piece, the team employed EditShare advanced tapeless workflow solutions: Flow (asset management) and Energy Series (shared storage), with support from Ark (back up and archiving). "The fact that we could all access the same footage simultaneously made a huge difference in our efficiency," Braddock says. "We had synced rushes and QC tests done throughout the shoot and just a short time behind camera. By the end of the first editing day, I had an assembly ready for the composer to start work."

Mirror Mirror, written by California-based writer April Manor, is the story of a teenage girl battling low self-esteem, who discovers her true worth through a special mirror. Though he's been credited as film editor on five features and has overseen drama projects in post-production, Braddock, who's been working in film and television for 25 years, stepped into the role of producer for a drama for the first time on Mirror Mirror. "We have a great script, and I wanted to produce it so that at least one viewer somewhere in the world will get helped by the story," he says. "I also see the project providing further credits, experience and additional international exposure for each of the cast and crew."

"Taking on a film project with only one week to complete is a very impressive feat," said Andy Liebman, President, EditShare. "We're happy to be able to support a project that gives filmmakers - veterans and rookies alike - the opportunity to learn more about their craft, be challenged, and work together in a positive environment. If they can create an 11-minute film with EditShare helping facilitate production and post in one week, just imagine what they can do with our system under a typical production timeline."

Braddock and crew began filming Mirror Mirror on February 10, 2012 and submitted it exactly one week later on the morning of the 17th. The film will premier in Hollywood at the end of March and compete for numerous awards.

Funi Player 1.01 for iOS 5: Music Effects Editor is Creative Musical Fun - Published on 02/24/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer Sejin Kim today introduces Funi Player 1.01 for iOS, his music-editing app that gives users an innovative way to listen to and enhance the songs in their music collection. Users may isolate vocals or instruments, adjust the speed of the tracks, or listen to songs backwards in this powerful Music editing app. Taking music listening to a new level, Funi Player users can create custom recordings of edited music creations for karaoke, artistic creation, musical practice or fun.

Seoul, Korea - Independent developer Sejin Kim today is pleased to introduce Funi Player 1.01 for iOS, his music-editing app that gives users an innovative way to listen to and enhance the songs in their music collection. Users may isolate the vocals or instruments, adjust the speed of the tracks, or listen to songs backwards in this powerful Music editing application. Taking music listening to a new level, Funi Player users can create custom recordings of edited music creations for karaoke, artistic creation, musical practice or fun. Using Funi Player's new technology, which requires iOS 5.0 or later, songs are all playable in stereo sound with or without effects, creating a true stereo sound editing experience.

When users launch Funi Player (pronounced Funny), they are taken to a screen that features the same menu as the iOS Music player, and it contains their entire media library. Listeners may choose a song from Playlists, Artists, Songs, or Albums. Once a song is selected, users have the option of listening to the song as it was originally recorded in Normal Play, or listening to music in one of Funi Player's innovative music effect modes including: Acappella Effect, Vocal Removed Effect, Reverse Play and Speed Control Play.

When listening to a song in Acappella Effect, the instruments are removed leaving only the voice of the singer or singers. Isolating the voice gives singers the opportunity to hear intricate vocals, without the distraction of the instrumental tracks. While the song is playing in Acappella Effect, users may pause, play, turn the effect on and off, and record the song in this effect.

Musicians may also listen to only the instrumentals of a song in the setting Vocal Removed Effect. This setting, which removes the vocals from a track, includes the option to play, pause, record and turn the effect on and off. Perfect for karaoke, users may use this setting to play the instrumentals of a track while adding their own vocals.

The Reverse Play option of Funi Player takes a song, vocals and instruments and plays the entire song backwards. The record option allows users to record this different version of a song. At any time during this effect, users may play, pause, or turn the effect on or off.

The Speed Control Play option gives users even more creativity with songs in their music library. Users may adjust the speed of a song by slowing it down by increments of .1 times to a maximum of .5 times slower speed. Users may also increase the speed of a song in .1 times increments to a maximum speed of 2.0 times.

Funi Player includes many additional features including links to YouTube Videos, Lyrics, and Ringtones in iTunes. The YouTube Videos tab takes the user to a list within the app of related YouTube Videos. The Lyrics tab takes the user to an in-app page of lyrics for the particular song. The Ringtone in iTunes tab launches iTunes and takes users to a list of related available ringtones.

Funi Player lets users share their edited musical creations. Users may record music with enhanced effects and send as a WAV file via email. Funi Player also supports AAC compression, allowing very large recordings to be sent via email with ease.

In addition, the app supports the following song play features: play and pause, play collections, play next, play previous, scrubbing, now playing button, searching, index, lyrics, repeat, shuffle, background play and remote control. Once a user has synced a device to iTunes, Funi Player updates the media library automatically, allowing for seamless integration with the user's media selections.

New myGuardianAngel App - Never Face Trouble Alone Again

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Fri Feb 24, 2012 3:00 am (PST)



New myGuardianAngel App - Never Face Trouble Alone Again - Published on 02/24/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Developed by DS Apps LLC, MyGuardianAngel 1.0 gives a person the ability to call 911 with the push of one button while simultaneously sending a message to each emergency contact stating that 911 was just called along with the location of the event. The concept of the myGuardianAngel App is to get a person the most help possible with the push of one button while collecting video evidence and allowing emergency contacts to track the users GPS location.

Fredericksburg, Texas - A stranger approaching, walking to a car or a class alone, a first date met online or jogging alone can all be potentially dangerous situations. The new myGuardianAngel iPhone App from DS Apps LLC gives a person the assurance that they won't have to face trouble alone. The app allows a person, with the push of ONE button, to send an emergency alert to several contacts, capture video evidence, be tracked by GPS and through streaming audio from the phone update ALL emergency contacts, at the same time, as to exactly what the situation is and exactly what type of help is needed.

How many of the countless news stories about someone disappearing without a trace could have ended differently if the victim could have, in a few seconds time, pushed the "Help" button on this app? Consider that one out of every five college women are sexually assaulted during their time in college. In a date, party or domestic violence situation one push of a button on this app can alert friends and/or family to come to the aid of a potential victim without anyone knowing they called for help.

The myGuardianAngel iphone app also gives a person the ability to call 911 with the push of one button while simultaneously sending a message to each emergency contact stating that 911 was just called along with the location of the event. This is a huge time saver in an emergency.

No longer does a person have to wait for something bad to happen before they call for help. At the first sign of danger the "HELP" button can be pushed. Should it be a false alarm simply saying "everything is ok" into the phone lets ALL emergency contacts know that everything is ok. If something bad happens then there are people who care, with the location, ready to provide the help that is needed. The app sends all information to a secure web site for viewing so destroying the victim's phone does not destroy the evidence. All of this technology is available with the push of one button at a price of only 99 cents. It begs the question: Can you afford not to have this app?

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, 4G iPod touch
* iPad 2 Wi-Fi and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 4.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
MyGuardianAngel 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category. For more information, visit MyGuardianAngel online.

Justin Bieber's Attorneys Threaten A Beaver - Published on 02/24/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Lawyers for Justin Bieber have sent a "Cease and Desist" order to the maker of a game app called "Joustin' Beaver". A new single-player arcade-style adventure game for iOS and Android devices, Joustin' Beaver allows fans to help their favorite pop star poke fun at the overbearing and aggressive paparazzi. The Joustin' Beaver game is a parody and is protected by the First Amendment of the Constitution. Nowhere in the game is Justin Bieber's name, photo, image, or life story mentioned.

Jacksonville, Florida - Lawyers for Justin Bieber have sent a "Cease and Desist" order to the maker of an iPhone game app called "Joustin' Beaver". The game features a cartoon beaver that floats down a river knocking camera-wielding hogs (Phot-Hogs) into the water with his lance. The app is being target by Bieber's legal team for possible infringement, among other things.

"The App utilizes our Client's name and likeness and portrays a beaver character based on our Client as part of the App's game play... You have no right to utilize our Client's name, image, likeness, life story or identity in or in connection with the App," wrote Bieber attorney Aaron Rosenberg.

A spokesperson for RC3, Inc. parried, "The Joustin' Beaver game is a parody and is protected by the First Amendment of the Constitution. Nowhere in the game is Justin Bieber's name, photo, image, or life story mentioned. We were surprised to learn that in addition to being a talented musician, Mr. Bieber is also a fictional beaver."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and Android
* Requires iOS 4.3 or Android 2.1

Burst! 4.0 for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Fri Feb 24, 2012 6:01 am (PST)



Burst! 4.0 for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad - Published on 02/24/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Al'liqu'a Al'leezat! Burst! is a hit! 2012 began with Burst! in the top 10 on multiple iTunes charts across the world. The only unlimited-projectile action puzzler game has entertained hundreds of thousands of players, and is only getting started. The latest release of Burst boasts multiple upgrades including a new map pack, twenty new levels, a new arrow, and three free level-skips for those extra tough levels. Burst! 4.0 is available for download on Friday, February 24, in the iTunes AppStore.

Marshall, Michigan - WickeyWare, the small indie game studio with a big hit, announces a major update for the hit game Burst! Durring its initial release in late 2011, Burst! spent multiple weeks in the top ten of multiple iTunes charts, and currently boasts over 400,000 downloads and 120,000 players on Apple's Game Center.

Burst! tells the story of young Chester who one day awakens to find the skies of his simple world filled with colorful balloons. On investigating, he discovers that these balloons are not as innocent as they appear. Chester must use the special weapons he finds along the way to clear his skies in pursuit of the dark villain Lyndon and his mysterious motives.

"We loved making and playing this game," says Tim Wickey of WickeyWare, "and there is just so much more of Chester's story to be told." Chester's story picks up after he has destroyed Lyndon's factory and has taken shelter in the adjacent forest. There he discovers that not all of Lyndon's traps have been destroyed. Now faced with some of the most diabolical puzzles that Lyndon has ever crafted, Chester constructs a new radar arrow to level the playing field.

The new, much anticipated, "Desidious Forest" map-pack is included for free to those who have already purchased Burst! "We don't want to do updates with just bug fixes," says Wickey, "We always try to provide new content for our fans." For the first time, players can now skip up to three levels for free. If three skips aren't enough, players can purchase additional skip-packs.

Burst is a puzzle-styled action-adventure with complete 2D physics simulation. Arrows can be launched with the games signature swipe gesture, or with the more traditional pull-back-to-shoot method. There are now six map packs and 120 levels. As Chester advances, there are special arrows - including the brand new radar arrow - and new opportunities to improve his score. He has unlimited regular arrows available to him, but the less he uses, the better his score and the more bursts he receives.

Features:
* Complete 2D physics simulation
* Multiple special weapons
* Original graphics, and visual effects
* Original music
* Retina graphics enabled
* Universal App for iPhone and iPad
* 40 free puzzles and 80 more puzzle with purchase
* 3 free skips and packs of 3 skips available for purchase

What People are Saying:
* "Fantastic game. GREAT visuals. Very challenging & addictive. Great sound effects. Best game I've seen for the iPhone on the app store. Everyone should get this one! A Five Stars." - ManManManManMam

* "Awesome game! Have it on my first page! :D" - Fishes Ring

* "Lots of FUN! It looks great and it's a lot of FUN. :)) Excellent little game for riding the subway. It's just hard to put down once you start." - Yeees Birds

* "This is one of the few apps that keeps me coming back . . . Even the music makes me smile. The sound effects give a very satisfying pop, crunch, or squeak based on what happens. I recommend this game!" Luc?

* "This game takes brains and it keeps you occupied until the end." - Ittositeitelusiait

Contest:
In celebration of the release of Burst! 4.0, WickeyWare is holding a contest to see who can get the best high score on the new Desidious Forest map pack. A $10.00 iTunes card will be presented to the player who earns the highest score on or before Sunday, February 26. To play, contestants should post a screenshot of the Desidious Forest map pack - with the highest score - to the WickeyWare Facebook page. The winner will be announced next week.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* Universal Application
* 26.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Burst! 3.01 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. Burst is free to play the first two map packs, and it is still only $0.99 to unlock the full game. There are three skips that are included with this version, and additional packs of three skips are only $0.99 each, through in-app purchase.
