Relax Firefly - Resting Place 1.1: Unwind to the Sounds of Nature - Published on 08/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Rudis App today introduces Relax Firefly - Resting Place 1.1 for iOS, an improved version of their relaxation app. This opportunity for rest features the glowing lights of up to six fireflies that follow the user's touch across the screen. The app also features a variety of sounds from nature that users can mix and match to compose a relaxation experience specific to their personal preferences. Relax Firefly provides a great opportunity for substantial rest from the stress of life.

Cheoin-gu, Republic Of Korea - Rudis App today is pleased to introduce Relax Firefly - Resting Place 1.1 for iOS, an improved version of their spiritual relaxation app. This opportunity for true rest features the glowing lights of up to six fireflies that follow the user's touch across the screen. The app also features a variety of real sounds from nature that users can mix and match to compose a relaxation experience specific to their personal preferences. Relax Firefly - Resting Place provides a great opportunity for substantial rest from the seemingly relentless stress of day-to-day life.

Feature Highlights:
* Experience realistic fireflies on screen
* Choose between light, dark, and nature backgrounds
* Choose between relaxing sounds of bugs, frogs, birds, rain, and music
* Set timer beforehand to regulate the relaxation experience
* Be lulled to sleep by the soothing sounds of nature

User choice plays a significant role in the quality of Relax Firefly. The number of fireflies on screen is flexible; there may be anywhere from two to six fireflies, depending on personal preference. The users may choose to have a white background and watch their fireflies scurry unlit across their screen, or they may turn the light off using a simple switch in the upper right hand corner. This makes the stage dark, allowing the fireflies to light up as they crawl. Similarly, the user may switch to the nature view, and watch the fireflies fly lit up around a brilliantly simple rendering of the night sky.

While the fireflies move in random directions on their own, users may also direct their movement by simply placing a finger on the screen. The fireflies will flock to the place of contact and then loyally follow the user's finger as it moves across the screen.

The listening experience is just as flexible as the visual; sounds available to the user consist of nighttime bugs, frogs, chirping birds, rain, and calming music. The truly remarkable part of this feature is the user's ability to mix and match the sounds as he or she pleases, creating the perfect personal composition to facilitate relaxation for each individual user.

Relax Firefly is able to provide complete rest to those with especially busy schedules through its optional timer feature. If set beforehand, the app will shut off at a certain time the user has chosen. Free from worrying about getting completely lost in the application and losing important time, busy users can relax and enjoy the period they have set aside for leisure.

"We recommend Relax Firefly to those under great stress, who would like to reconnect with nature or are having trouble sleeping," said a spokesperson for Rudis App. "The calming sounds of nature will take users to a comfortable, homey place."

Language Support:
* English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later (iOS 5 tested)
* 3.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Relax Firefly - Resting place 1.1 is $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Health & Fitness category. Review copies are available on request.

Sheep were bred at record rates in the early 60's after a direct relationship was realized between getting a good night sleep and the amount of sheep in the world.

With the ability to count sheep into the thousands people were getting more sleep then they could ever dream of. Sheep were bred and bred strong. Many sheep had to survive in the desert, winter tundra, and in farms around the world. Basically anywhere there was room, sheep were bred.

Unfortunately this has gotten out of control and there is now an over abundance of sheep, endangering productivity of humanity. This has also provided a surplus of warm wool sweater and blankets. As every wants to be warm while they sleep.

To help fight this epidemic of Sheep, Monsters have been released into the wild to reduce the sheep population in a last ditch effort by local secret organizations. Of course monsters need to eat sheep to stay awake themselves.

Though some evil sheep wranglers from around the world, which have benefited from the over population, are determined to stop the monsters from eating the sheep.

GemPulse for iPhone - Pulsing gems, a space cow, and explosions galore - Published on 08/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Fireflux announces GemPulse for iPhone, a unique puzzle game with never before seen, thought provoking mechanics. Players of GemPulse must quickly build chains of like-colored Gems to create a large circuit. The player will then detonate the circuit, awarding points to move on to the next level. Race against the clock to build the largest circuit, then blow it up! The goal of GemPulse is to reach a target score before the timer elapses. Each level consists of one white gem & an array of others.

Chico, California - Fireflux today is pleased to announce the release of GemPulse for iPhone, a unique puzzle game with never before seen, thought provoking mechanics. Players of GemPulse must quickly build chains of like-colored Gems to create a large circuit. The player will then detonate the circuit, awarding points to move on to the next level. Race against the clock to build the largest circuit, then blow it up!

The goal of GemPulse is to reach a target score before the timer elapses. Each level consists of one white gem and an array of other colored gems. A pulse begins at the white gem and travels outward, creating a chain to like-colored gems. Every third gem in the chain will continue to chain to all adjacent gems, regardless of color. The player replaces gems one at a time to grow the length of the chain, and finally detonates it for points.

Each level in GemPulse represents an 8x8, two-bit picture. A crossbow, a reference to Scorched Earth, and a broken heart are among the many levels to play. Players can earn bronze, silver, or gold medals for completing levels quickly by reaching the target score.

Players must vary their strategy while playing GemPulse. A player can detonate their chain at any time, collecting points for the length of the chain. The longer the chain, the higher the score multiplier will be. Players must balance the detonation of chains against the complexity of the current puzzle in order to best determine when to detonate. Multiple detonations can be performed per level.

Device Requirements:
* iOS 3.1.3 or later
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* 33.1 MB

Pricing and Availability:
GemPulse 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.
