Not A Basement Studio was started in January 2010 when Ken Luong, Khoa Nguyen, and Hieu Tran were getting bored with the university's curriculum and WoW's raiding nights. Being avid manga fan, they looked to the App Store for something to cure their boredom. That's when the idea for our first app came about. Four months of hard work and countless (actually 120) sleepless nights, Manga Rock, a manga reader for the iPhone, was released. Greeted with much love, and hate, the app received close to one million download on the app store. Two years later, joined by more like-minded and passionate people, we are now making awesome apps for the iOS App Store, making life better, one app at a time.

Seoul, Korea - Help Purple, a fanciful adventure game for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad from seller Gameday has launched. While the naming of characters (Purple, his friends, the antagonist Huge Monster) is delightfully simplistic, Help Purple conjures up plenty of challenge and well-paced complexity for adventure game genre devotees.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Kdan Mobile today announces a major update for both the iPhone and the iPad versions of Animation Desk, offering users a new and creative way of storytelling. This award-winning drawing and animation app helps its users flesh out ideas into e-cards, storyboards, and animation projects. Now with enhanced audio capabilities and upgraded stamp features, Animation Desk makes it easier to create digital story books or short-length animated films that will grab the attention of a wider audience.

Tainan, Taiwan - Kdan Mobile today is thrilled to announce a significant update for both the iPhone and the iPad versions of Animation Desk, offering animation hobbyists a new and creative way of storytelling. This award-winning drawing and animation app helps its users flesh out ideas into e-cards, storyboards, and animation projects. Now with enhanced audio capabilities and upgraded stamp features, Animation Desk makes it easier to create digital story books or short-length animated films that will grab the attention of a wider audience.

Animation Desk is renowned for its elegant interface and powerful animation functionality, as pointed out by the prestigious review site, AppAdvice. To further extend the app's abilities, its latest edition supports audio import and recording, so users can add background music, sound effects, and narrations to spice up their works. With the help of flexible audio support, users can easily turn an animated story into a visual and audio delight.

Another highlight of the newest version is the enhanced stamp tool. This patented gadget not only provides an easy option for users to copy, paste, and insert pictures, but it can also transfer patterns of a picture on to the drawing canvas. Users can quickly create an animated figure or a background element of a story. The stamp features largely reduce redraw time and thus allow users to focus on making slight changes among different frames. It also helps parents and teachers to make one-of-a-kind animated storybooks that appeal to young viewers.

Nosy Crow drops the price of its apps to low price for World Book Day - Published on 02/29/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent children's app publisher Nosy Crow is celebrating World Book Day on March 1 with a price drop for all of its apps to one low price, for one day only. In honour of World Book Day, which is marked in over 100 countries across the world, and in the UK has the primary aim of encouraging children to explore the pleasures of reading, the multi award-winning Cinderella, The Three Little Pigs and Bizzy Bear on the Farm apps will all be available on iTunes for the new price for one day.

New York and London - Independent children's app publisher Nosy Crow is celebrating World Book Day on March 1 with a price drop for all of its apps to $0.99/ 0.69/ Euro0.79, for one day only.

In honour of World Book Day, which is marked in over 100 countries across the world, and in the UK has the primary aim of encouraging children to explore the pleasures of reading, the multi award-winning Cinderella, The Three Little Pigs and Bizzy Bear on the Farm apps will all be available on iTunes for the new price for one day.

"With apps playing a larger part in children's literacy and involving young people in a more diverse range of reading experiences, we felt like this was the right way to celebrate World Book Day," said Tom Bonnick, Digital Project and Marketing Manager at Nosy. "We've received so much positive feedback from parents, speech therapists, teachers and other professionals on our apps and how they contribute to children's increased engagement with and enjoyment of reading and storytelling."

"Children are spending more and more time on screens. We believe that it's important for us as publishers to encourage children's to read by creating reading experiences that are at least as much fun as anything else they do on screens," says Kate Wilson, Managing Director of Nosy Crow. "At Nosy Crow, we're creating a new kind of compelling reading experience that is interactive and multimedia, not just a book squashed onto a phone."

World Book Day is now in its fifteenth year and in 2012 will have its own app for the first time, featuring short stories by authors including Neil Gaiman, Anthony Horowitz and Charlie Higson.

About the apps:
Nosy Crow's Bizzy Bear on the Farm, Cinderella, and The Three Little Pigs apps are available on the iTunes App Store for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch (compatibility - all iPads, and minimum iPhone 3GS or 3rd generation iPod touch running iOS 3.1.3 or higher). Bizzy Bear is normally priced at $3.99/ 2.49/ Euro2.99, Cinderella at $7.99/ 5.49/ Euro5.99, and The Three Little Pigs at $5.99/ 3.99/ Euro4.99.

Los Angeles, California - Auryn, Inc., the most award-winning digital publisher and creator of unprecedented children storybook apps for iPad and tablet devices, announced today that several of the notable and award-winning apps from the company's popular collection will be offered free, throughout the month of March.

In recognition of National Reading Month, Auryn is giving away one free storybook app each day of the month to promote reading among children on digital devices.

Among the titles available for free download during March will include:
* Van Gogh and the Sunflowers (USA Today Top 5 amazing kids book app and current Appy Award finalist)
* Teddy's Day (Winner of multiple awards including the first ever Appy Award)
* The Little Mermaid (Parent's Choice Award winner)
* Bunny Fun: Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes (Parent's Choice Award winner)
* Teddy's Night (Parent's Choice Award winner)

March is recognized throughout the U.S. as National Reading Month; designated as such by the National Education Association. The organization will celebrate its 15th Annual Read Across America Day this year, a nationwide program that helps children discover the joy of reading and is expected to draw more than 45 million participants on Friday, March 2.

"Supporting National Reading Month with free storybook apps to inspire kids to read in a decade of all things video is a natural extension of our overall mission to encourage reading in the new age of technology," said Umesh Shukla, Founder and CEO of Auryn. "We are thrilled to bring a renewed enthusiasm for reading to our youth by bringing illustrations to life through animation and interactivity."

Recently published on Digital Book World, an exploratory survey by the Joan Ganz Cooney Center at Sesame Workshop revealed that most of the children in the study preferred reading an e-book to a print book and the comprehension between the two formats was the same.

10.: CollabraCam 1.5 - Major Update Not Compatible with Previous Versions

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

Wed Feb 29, 2012 9:01 am (PST)

CollabraCam 1.5 - Major Update Not Compatible with Previous Versions - Published on 02/29/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CollabraCam streams video from up to four iOS cameras over local Wi-Fi to a fifth device for the director to view and edit a video in real-time, all while allowing the director to silently communicate camera moves or angles to any camera operators to get the perfect shots. When the director calls it a wrap, all of the clips are transferred to the director's device and assembled into the final movie with automatically generated credits.

Grand Rapids, Michigan - Apptopus, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of a major point release update to CollabraCam.

The update version 1.5 is a rewrite of the majority of the app to provide a more stable and reliable experience with higher quality results. It is such a significant update that it is not compatible with previous versions of CollabraCam! Additionally, CollabraCam 2.0 is in the works with a redesigned user interface and some great new features, so stay tuned!

CollabraCam provides a quick, easy and fun way to shoot and simultaneously edit video from multiple cameras on-the-fly with friends, family or colleagues using iPhones, iPod touches and iPad 2. CollabraCam links iOS devices running the app over local Wi-Fi to create a simple yet powerful video switching control room. As the director, a user can view, record and edit from up to four live-streaming iOS cameras in real-time while also having the ability to silently cue the operators of standby or recording cameras to perform pan, track, dolly or tilt camera moves or request a high or low angle.

CollabraCam is defining the future of collaborative mobile video production by enabling groups to collectively capture an edited video live. Imagine a crew at the little league championship game ... bottom of the ninth, all tied up with two outs and a runner at second. Camera operators at first, third and behind home plate with the fourth roaming the crowd while the director monitors and records from the stands on an iPad. The director records Camera 3 behind home plate as the batter hits a fly ball that drops into left field, switches to Camera 1 as the batter takes first, then cues Camera 2 to pan right before switching to it as the runner from second rounds third and the outfielder guns it for home, then switches back to Camera 3 as the runner leaps over the catcher to score the winning run, and switches to Camera 4 as the crowd goes wild!

CollabraCam is for real-life collaborative storytelling and makes video production a social experience. CollabraCam is the must-have app for collectively capturing sporting events, discovering the next viral YouTube star, hitting the citizen journalistic beat, producing a talk show for film and video class - and for just having fun with friends ... the possibilities are endless.

CollabraCam on the go with a mobile HotSpot, a battery-powered wireless router (e.g. USB 3G router), an ad-hoc wireless (computer-to-computer) network on a laptop or anywhere you have access to power with a corded wireless router or even a Wi-Fi network built into your car! An internet connection is not required for any of these solutions to broadcast a Wi-Fi network for use with CollabraCam.

General Features:
* Comprehensive User Guide to view in app or print with AirPrint
* Enter your name or Twitter name to be displayed in credits

Director Features:
* Direct a multicam video on any iOS device over local Wi-Fi
* Connect with up to four iPhone, iPod touch 4G or iPad 2 cameras
* Add a title to the credits with optional copyright notice
* View, record and edit streaming video on-the-fly, in real-time
* Record from one camera and queue another camera on standby
* Send camera move or angle cues to camera operators
* Credits are automatically generated when a session is saved
* Resume a saved session with the same crew or a different one
* Export an assembled movies at 640x480, 480x320 or 192x144
* Export video clips to the Camera Roll to edit in a video editing app
* Save video clips via File Sharing in iTunes to edit on a computer

Camera Features:
* Operate a camera with iPhone (3GS, 4), iPod touch 4G or iPad 2
* Instant notification from the director of standby or recording status
* Receive camera move or angle cue communication from the director
* Clips are saved on cameras and transferred to the director

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

Pricing and Availability
The 1.5 update is free for current users and CollabraCam is currently $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and also participates in the iTunes Educational Institution Discount program.

Joint Venture Between BBP Creations and WWIS On 33 iBooks - Published on 03/01/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BBP Creations has partnered with Water Works Industry Solutions to create 33 educational iBooks for the waterworks industry. WWIS currently sells 33 different training DVDs for the waterworks industry focusing on underground water and sewer pipe installations. Each book will contain prerequisites, definitions, the common use of that particular training, the main training installation video, a 3D animated video review, the video transcripts, multiple choice review with video and a glossary.

Reno, Nevada - Big Ben Parliament Creations (BBP Creations) has partnered with Water Works Industry Solutions (WWIS) to create 33 educational iBooks for the waterworks industry. A joint venture has been established between both companies for this project. WWIS currently sells 33 different training DVDs for the waterworks industry focusing on underground water and sewer pipe installations.

"We felt that this was a great opportunity to advance our training into easier, more affordable and globally accessible apps with the new iBook 2," stated Nicholas Reviglio, co-owner of WWIS. "This joint venture is exciting for our company as it will allow us to reach more people with our educational series. This isn't just for waterworks operators. Our training shows how to fix problems that you can have in your own backyard."

BBP Creations will be releasing the first iBook of the series, "Mechanical Joint Installation for Ductile Iron Pipe," in April 2012. "We will be releasing one iBook a month with WWIS, the first few being the most requested trainings," stated Aurelia Goodfellow, Head of Marketing for BBP Creations. "This partnership has allowed us to expand into the new iBook 2 educational format. These are great training resources for everyone especially when a natural disaster hits and water pipes need to be repaired quickly. These iBooks will showcase the training that WWIS has prepared in a hands on approach that anyone can understand and use in an emergency situation, anywhere in the world. What better way to do that than on an iPad."

With the new iBook 2, each book will contain prerequisites, definitions, the common use of that particular training, the main training installation video, a 3D animated video review, the video transcripts, multiple choice review with video and a glossary. "We have offered our training on DVDs since 2006, but were limited to the countries outside of the USA that we could ship to affordably. With the iPad, we can be 100% global and everyone who owns an iPad can purchase our training and within seconds have it available for a job site or for classroom training," stated Reviglio.

15.: iSticky for iOS and OS X - Reborn as Real-time Sticky Note Sharing A

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

Thu Mar 1, 2012 3:00 am (PST)

iSticky for iOS and OS X - Reborn as Real-time Sticky Note Sharing App - Published on 03/01/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Xinfinite and Yaranga today introduce iSticky 1.0 for iOS and iSticky 4.0 for OS X, their Productivity app that stores user's notes on iSticky's Cloud server for easy access on multiple devices. The new release for iOS integrates with the OS X version, supports push notifications, allows users to create note lists, share lists with other users, specify list permissions, encrypt note lists, and send notes to other users.

Gouda, Netherlands - Xinfinite and Yaranga today are proud to introduce iSticky 1.0 for iOS and iSticky 4.0 for OS X, a note application that stores user's notes on iSticky's Cloud server for easy access on multiple devices. After eight years as a successful OS X application, iSticky has been completely overhauled and has become available for the iOS platform as well. This useful Productivity application now includes the implementation of push notifications, facilitating real-time communication and alerts. It allows users to create note lists, share lists with other users, specify list permissions, encrypt note lists, and send notes to other users. iSticky can be used on multiple iOS and Mac OS X devices, with easy communication between the iOS and OS X versions.

iSticky lets users send an infinite number of sticky notes to themselves and others, providing a quick, real-time solution for sending important information like reminders, updates, directions, meeting times, dinner plans, meet-up changes, or any other individual or group note. iSticky provides a fast and organized way to send notes, at home, in school, on the road, or in the office.

iSticky is a great solution for:
* Teams: to create real-time to-do lists
* Companies with employees on the road: to give them the latest information or orders
* Colleagues: to send quick reminders instead of sending emails or sticking paper notes on desks
* Families: to send quick reminders, menus, honey-do lists, and other important information

Users may become connected with other users, allowing sharing of notes organized in lists. Current users send an invitation to the email address of the person they wish to connect with. If this email address is already registered as an iSticky user, the user will see an invitation in the iSticky app. If the email address is not registered as an iSticky user, iSticky will send an email with the invitation to purchase iSticky and connect to the user who sent the invitation. People can accept a connection invite, decline to become connected, or delete a connection any time.

Once connected, users may share notes and lists with other connected users. The owner of the list may specify the permissions of other users. iSticky also allows users to send notes outside of a permitted list to a specific connected user. These notes will automatically appear in the General list. The General list is a static feature of iSticky and cannot be deleted or encrypted. The connected user, if allowing push notifications, will receive an alert to the note.

Feature Highlights:
* Easy to use note sharing
* Notes and list stored on iSticky's Cloud server, enabling access on multiple devices at all times
* Supports Apple's Push Notification Service allowing for instant notifications
* Share notes and lists with connected users
* Connect with users through invites and specify list permissions among users
* Seamless integration between devices and users
* Note encryption options
* Send notes to other users

iSticky notes are ordered in color-coded lists a user can create. The notes will be displayed beneath the list header. Users can rearrange notes, e.g., the most important notes may be placed at the top of a list.

Once a list has been created, all connected users may add notes to the list. Each note is tagged with the name of the user who created the note and the date the note was created or last modified. After notes are created, they may be edited or deleted. If a user is not connected to the Internet when a note is created or edited, the note will be placed in the queue until the next time an Internet connection is established.

Users can ensure the privacy of notes of certain lists by encrypting them with 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard or AES encryption. If an encrypted list is shared, connected users must have the password in order to read the notes of a list. To prevent other people from reading the user's notes, iSticky for iOS offers the option of setting a passcode to get access to the app.

iSticky makes use of Apple's Push Notification Service, allowing users to be updated to any changes and additions to notes and lists. Changes are immediately pushed to all the users who need to know. If a user changes a note of a shared list, this change will be communicated immediately to all the users who are members of that list. This feature is integrated between iSticky OS X and iSticky iOS, allowing notification of notes changed on a Mac computer to be sent to an iOS device within seconds.

"iSticky brings you fast, real-time note sharing. With notes stored on our Cloud server, you will never be without vital information," stated Yaranga's Arie Pieter Cammeraat. "No more losing important information on tiny scraps of paper. iSticky has revolutionized the sticky note."

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.7 or later
* 5.3 MB

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 11.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
iSticky 1.0.2 for iOS is $9.99 (USD) and iSticky 4.0.60 for Mac is $19.99 (USD) available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category. Review copies are available on request.

16.: Verto Studio 3D 1.0 for OS X - Popular 3D Design App for iPad Now on

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

Thu Mar 1, 2012 3:00 am (PST)

Verto Studio 3D 1.0 for OS X - Popular 3D Design App for iPad Now on Mac - Published on 03/01/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent developer Michael L. Farrell today introduces Verto Studio 3D 1.0 for Mac, his full-featured, 3D modeling app originally created for iPad. The app supports import of OBJ and 36 other file formats, allowing users to download thousands of wire mesh models or create their own. Powerful enough for professionals doing mobile 3D content creation and easy enough for beginners, it features 3D modeling, dynamic lighting, texture mapping, iOS/OS X file sharing and Multi-Touch-Gestures in Lion.

San Diego, California - Independent developer Michael L. Farrell today is pleased to introduce Verto Studio 3D 1.0 for Mac, his full-featured, 3D modeling app originally created for iPad. The app supports import of OBJ, 3ds Max 3DS, Blender 3D, AutoCAD DXF and 33 other 3D file formats, allowing users to download thousands of available wire mesh models, or create their own. Powerful enough for professionals doing mobile 3D content creation, and simple enough for beginning modelers, Verto Studio 3D combines sophisticated 3D modeling, lighting, and texture mapping with a GUI that works with a mouse or Lion's Multi-Touch trackpad. Considering its unprecedented ability to import 37 different 3D file formats, the diminutive 9.5 MB app (which offers real-time Gouraud shading, dynamic lighting, self illumination, vertex editing, multiple camera angles, and an innovative Auto mode for manipulating every object in the scene simultaneously) now offers a pipeline, via email or Dropbox, for the
conversion of almost any 3D file into a Verto Studio 3D Mobile file for iPhone or iPad.

Feature Highlights:
* OBJ file import/export
* Verto Studio file format support and exchange via email or Dropbox
* Drag & drop Objects - Plane, Cube, Sphere, Torus, Terrain Generator (height field), and 3D Sketch tool
* Mesh generation
* Mesh augmentation - Polygon Extrusion, Polygon Subdivision, and Texture Coordinate Editor
* Editing features - Vertex Translation/Rotation/Scaling, Mirror, Material Editor, Texture Mapping, Lighting Editor, and Undo
* Multiple Camera Views - Top, Bottom, Left, Right, Front, Back, and Free
* Orthographic projection mode for engineering and CAD applications
* Real-time Gouraud shading and rendering of texture maps, including FSAA
* Real-time scaling, moving, rotating, panning, and auto scene re-orientation
* Multiple document interface allows opening as many scene files as desired simultaneously
* Drag and drop texturing
* Scenes can be appended to merge multiple files into one

Just as impressive as its smooth, real-time rendering, display, and manipulation of computationally intensive three-dimensional models (employing Hardware Full Scene Anti-Aliasing), is the app's economical interface. Users familiar with popular 3D applications like Maya or Blender are acquainted with their complex, confusing tools, menus, controls, and input fields. Verto Studio 3D employs only 11 simple buttons in the upper tab bar of the modeling window. Six buttons in a group control movement: Auto, Pan, Move, Rotate, Scale, and Select. None of these opens a window that would block the view. Instead, the user touches a button and then performs that action directly using a mouse or Multi-Touch-Gestures. For more precise control, another button opens the corresponding window for the chosen tool. For example, having chosen the Scale Tool the user may work directly on the screen, or open the Scale Tool window, which allows precision, numerical adjustment of X, Y, and Z scaling.

The five remaining buttons include: Add Object, Configure Tool, Object List, Object Editor, and Inspector. The Add Object drop-down menu lists the following: Plane, Sketch, Cube, Sphere, Terrain, Torus, and Light. Configure Tool complements the Move, Rotate, and Scale functions and opens a dialog box containing three empty number fields, which confers absolute, numerical control. The Object List is a simple, touch to select, drop-down list of every object and light source in the scene. With any object selected, the Object Editor drop-down menu provides complete control over vertices, meshes, triangles, and features such as extrusion. With any light or object selected, the Inspector window provides comprehensive control over lighting type, position, direction, intensity, angle, attenuation, color, etc. And with any object selected, the Inspector provides full control over how the object interacts with Ambient, Diffuse, Specular, and Self-Emitted Light, as well as numerical control of
Texture Maps, Wrapping, and Tiling.

Most of the important functions are available from the modeling Window, but several are found in the drop-downs of the menu bar: Undo, Camera View, Select, and Open/Save/Export capabilities. Undo permits an unlimited number of undo actions. The Camera View allows the six standard views plus a variable view, and either normal perspective or orthogonal projection may be chosen. Select allows selection of None, All, or Inverse of Objects. Open/Save/Export allows the user to open 37 different 3D file formats, Save any scene as a native file, Append a scene file, and Export as an OBJ or native Verto Studio 3D file.

File Formats Supported:
Collada (.dae), Blender 3D (.blend), 3ds Max 3DS (.3ds), 3ds Max, ASE (.ase), Wavefront Object (.obj), Stanford Polygon Library (.ply), AutoCAD DXF (.dxf), LightWave (.lwo), Modo (.lxo), Stereolithography (.stl), AC3D (.ac), Milkshape 3D (.ms3d), TrueSpace (.cob,.scn), Valve Model (.smd,.vta), Quake I Mesh (.mdl), Quake II Mesh (.md2), Quake III Mesh (.md3), Quake III BSP (.pk3), Return to Castle Wolfenstein (.mdc), Doom 3 (.md5*), Biovision BVH (.bvh), CharacterStudio Motion (.csm), DirectX X (.x), BlitzBasic 3D (.b3d), Quick3D (.q3d, .q3s), Ogre XML (.mesh.xml), Irrlicht Mesh (.irrmesh), Irrlicht Scene (.irr), Neutral File Format (.nff), Sense8 WorldToolKit (.nff), Object File Format (.off), PovRAY Raw (.raw), Terragen Terrain (.ter), 3D GameStudio (.mdl), 3D GameStudio Terrain (.hmp), and Izware Nendo (.ndo)

Because the app opens a remarkable variety of 3D file formats, users may exploit the many thousands of objects already modeled and available through on-line libraries and services. Readily downloadable are easily constructed models with relatively few vertexes, such as geometric shapes and simple objects like books or computer monitors. In addition, highly complex models such as spacecraft, houses, people, animals, and plants are also available. All models may be edited to the user's requirements. For 3D veterans and newbies alike, Verto Studio 3D offers an intuitive, inexpensive solution for three-dimensional content creation.

According to independent developer Michael L. Farrell, "My goal in creating Verto Studio 3D for iPad was two-fold; first, to introduce casual users of the iPad to the incredible creative possibilities of 3D modeling; and second, to provide a tool for experienced modelers to demonstrate ideas and designs anytime, anywhere, on their iPad. Apple was so impressed with the app that they featured it in a multi-national TV commercial. Now, with Verto Studio 3D for the Mac, users have a simple, practical 3D app that produces great results without a steep learning curve. And projects can be easily moved back and forth between their iDevice and their Mac."

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6 or later
* 4.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Verto Studio 3D 1.0 for OS X is available now at the introductory price of $24.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the Mac App Store in the Productivity category. Normal pricing of $49.99 will take effect shortly. Review copies are available on request.

DEVONtechnologies, LLC today releases maintenance updates for all editions of DEVONthink and DEVONagent, for the brand new search app DEVONsphere Express, as well as for its freeware Mac apps EasyFind, PhotoStickies, and XMenu. The update to both DEVONthink and DEVONnote bring many new important features, and improvements. DEVONsphere Express 1.2 improves memory usage and memory management, and more.

Coeur d'Alene, Idaho - DEVONtechnologies, LLC releases maintenance updates for all editions of DEVONthink and DEVONagent, for the brand new search app DEVONsphere Express, as well as for its freeware Mac apps EasyFind, PhotoStickies, and XMenu.

DEVONsphere Express 1.2 improves memory usage and memory management, and supports email messages dropped from Apple Mail, Markdown and Textfile files, TaskPaper documents, as well as .conf and .config text files. In addition, DEVONsphere Express now supports Microsoft Entourage, indexes files on the Desktop by default, and improves the quality and quantity of results for related items. The update also enhances support for DEVONthink Pro (Office) and Microsoft Office document, updates its index more efficiently, and compresses the index so that it uses less disk space.

DEVONthink Pro and Pro Office allow to easily delete databases and all their caches without having the user manually move the database package to the trash in the Finder. All editions of DEVONthink support Adium chatlog files, improve compatibility to Mellel and OmniOutliner 3 files, and make indexing webarchives more reliable if Safari 5.1.x or later is installed. The update to both DEVONthink and DEVONnote brings a new contextual menu command to update saved bookmarks, e.g. after navigating to a new page, support for Google Chrome bookmarks, and allow to add custom templates or AppleScript scripts to toolbars.

DEVONagent Pro 3.1.2 also adds support for Google Chrome bookmarks and scripts that can be added to window toolbars for easy access. Using Thumbshots.com makes even showing thumbnails in DEVONagent Express truly "express" (and in DEVONagent Pro, too), enabling users to search directly from the menu bar quicker than ever before. The thumbnail gallery scanner and the Marketing default search set have been updated, too, and all editions including DEVONagent Lite get a better SEC plugin and updated French localization.

Finally, EasyFind 4.8.2 better handles words with hyphens and dots (abbreviations), displays the number of found items in the Dock, and improves drag-and-drop compatibility to certain other apps. PhotoStickies 5.6.5 features a new icon and is more compatible to OS X 10.7 Lion, and XMenu 1.9.4 improves reliability in 64 bit mode. Of course, all updates from DEVONsphere Express through DEVONthink, DEVONnote, DEVONagent, and the freeware apps, fix bugs and glitches and improve the overall reliability and performance.

20.: Angry Planes - NYC Accountant turns Developer - Launches App

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

Thu Mar 1, 2012 3:31 am (PST)

Angry Planes - NYC Accountant turns Developer - Launches App - Published on 03/01/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BAM Entertainment LLC today introduces Angry Planes 1.0, its new gaming title for iOS devices. Featuring simple and intuitive controls, Angry Planes offers superb pick-up and playability. Users must drop bombs from their Angry Plane onto swimming squid below, bombing a designated number of squid before time and bombs run out. Version 1.0 features 90 levels that progressively unlock, and combined with a '3 Star' rating system, A.P. provides high replay value and countless hours of gameplay.

New York, New York - With over half a million Apps currently live in the App Store, it's hard enough to simply get noticed ... nevermind produce a top 25 app. Many of these 'blockbuster' apps are developed by well known, experienced developers; most of which are companies with dedicated resources. However, one of the 'small guys' is trying to break that mould, and has made a bold run for it with the introduction of Angry Planes to the App Store.

Biagio Iellimo is the founder of BAM Entertainment LLC, the new developer of this full feature 2D action/strategy game. An accountant living and working in the craziness of New York City's financial world, Biagio is BAM's single employee. When asked about how Angry Planes came to fruition, this is what he had to say, "I'm a complete 'techy', and have always been a fan of all things Apple. It's been my dream to release an app since the day the App Store went live. For the past 18 months, I crunched numbers during the day, anxiously waiting to get home to work on Angry Planes at night. Developing has become my true interest/passion, and I've put everything into this app to make a game that is truly unique, interesting, and fun. I am extremely excited about introducing it to the Apple Community!"

Angry Planes brings back the essence of what mobile games were originally all about: simple and addictive with that pick-up and play ability so you can fully enjoy the game whether you have 30 seconds or 30 hours to spare. Version 1.0 features 90 levels that progressively unlock, and combined with a '3 Star' rating system, A.P. provides high replay value and countless hours of gameplay.

To pass each level, users must drop bombs from their Angry Plane onto swimming squid below, bombing a designated number of squid before time and bombs run out. To make things challenging, there are color-changing squid that require multiple hits to kill, they swim in different speeds/patterns on every level, and obstacles in the water provide the squid ample bomb cover and hiding spots.

The controls are simple and intuitive - left/right arrows at the bottom of the screen make the plane speed up/slow down as it continuously flies from side to side. A single red bomb button completes the controls, dropping one bomb with each tap. Timing becomes the name of the game, as users cannot change the direction of their plane on demand. If they fly past the squid below, they must get to the end of the screen in order to turn around. The combination of timing the plane's speed with dropping bombs onto moving targets below can be what Biagio describes as the "most gratifying or frustrating fun you'll ever have...either way you'll be hooked to this app quickly!".

Angry Planes' graphics are polished and gameplay is extremely smooth. There are different planes to choose from, as well as bonus characters such as submarines and sharks, which have special features that enhance gameplay. It's Game Center enabled, and users can compete on multiple online leaderboards to see who can eliminate the most squid.

Device Requirements:
*iPhone 3GS or higher, iPod touch 3rd generation or higher, iPad 1 or 2
*Requires iOS 4.0 or higher
*16 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Angry Planes 1.0 is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. There are 4 versions available: iPhone/iPod touch Free and Paid ($0.99), and iPad Free and Paid ($1.99).

25.: Quake Escape releases How to Survive the Mayan Calendar Apocalypse

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

Quake Escape releases How to Survive the Mayan Calendar Apocalypse - Published on 03/01/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Quake Escape, a new mobile app game for iTunes has released infographic parodying the Mayan calendar prophecy that the world will end after 2012. The infographic details various ways to survive the natural disasters that Mayan conspiracy theorists expect to plague the earth this year. An example of their helpful but humorous tips for surviving an earth quake include: avoiding cities, which are likely to crumble at any moment. The graphic suggests everyone live, instead, in a moon house.

Clifton, New Jersey - Quake Escape, a new mobile app game for iTunes has released infographic parodying the Mayan calendar prophecy that the world will end after 2012. The infographic details various ways to survive the natural disasters that Mayan conspiracy theorists expect to plague the earth this year.

"The infographic is funny because it's so topical right now," said Peter Garcia Quake Escape President. "There's a heightened awareness about the end of the world because of the Mayan Calendar, and we want people to be prepared for the worst in a very candid manner."

An example of their helpful but humorous tips for surviving an earth quake include: avoiding cities, which are likely to crumble at any moment. The graphic suggests everyone live, instead, in a moon house.

Much like the game, Quake Escape's infographic capitalizes on the Mayan Calendar interest that has taken the world by storm. The idea also goes hand-in-hand with the popularity of zombie apocalypse survival guides.

The Quake Escape infographic has three main areas of advice: How to Survive an Earth Quake, How to Survive a Flood, and The Absolutely necessary Survival Kit. Each section details unorthodox solutions to the end of days natural disasters. The cartoonish characters and sleek graphics make this infographic interesting and easy to read. For more information on Quake Escape, visit their website, or download their app for free in the iTunes App store.
