12-Steppers: Is There A Moral Inventory App? Yes! Life Inventory for iOS - Published on 10/08/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer James Hollender's Life Inventory iPhone and iPad apps provide an organized way to create a Moral Inventory, a requirement of Step 4 in 12-Step programs like AA and other addiction recovery programs. Following the detailed instructions, the user is gently guided through the complex requirements needed in order to complete a thorough Moral Inventory. These Lifestyle apps can also be used by non-12-steppers who want to learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible.

Revere, Massachusetts - Indie developer James Hollender's Life Inventory iPhone and iPad apps provide an organized way to create a Moral Inventory, a requirement of Step 4 in 12-Step programs like AA and other addiction recovery programs. Following the detailed instructions, the user is gently guided through the complex requirements needed in order to complete a thorough Moral Inventory. These Lifestyle apps can also be used by non-12-steppers who want to learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible. The Life Inventory for iPad app was named Top iOS app No. 3 for 2012. This and the iPhone version are Lifestyle apps that guide users in creating their own Moral Inventory, which can provide greater self-understanding of their personality, strengths, and weaknesses. These apps allow the user to learn more about themselves than ever thought possible and at only a small fraction the cost of a single visit to a therapist.

The process of completing a Life (Moral) Inventory does not directly address anyone's specific problems or addictions, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life. The Life Inventory app gently assists the user in probing into not only what happened, but also why it happened. The questions asked help the user delve into areas often never considered before, like:

* What did I want?
* Why did I want it?
* What am I not admitting?
* What lie did I tell myself?
* What did I leave out or not say?
* What lie did I tell others?
* Have I ever done the same thing?
* Was it any of my business?
* Were my expectations reasonable?
* What was the real truth?
* What was I not seeing?
* Did I fail to see the facts of the situation?
* What actions did I take to get what I wanted?
* What actions did I omit to get what I wanted?

The Life Inventory apps guide the user through six different steps, each with its own activity grouping, for making a Life Inventory in writing:

* Build Lists
* Causes and Effects
* My Part
* Fears Analysis
* Fear Questions
* Sex Relations

Throughout the process, users are encouraged to be completely honest about themselves. The Inventory begins by making one simple list, which defines four fixed Categories in which to file away what are broadly categorized as Incidents:

* People
* Institutions and Organizations
* Principles, Ideals and Beliefs
* Sources of Anxiety and Excitement

Each of the four Categories will contain hierarchical sub-categories. From there, users outline Entities and then individual Incidents.

Step-by-step, users complete the Causes and Effects of each Incident. Next, users determine the part they played in each Incident listed. It is not unusual to create hundreds of Incident forms, each devoted to a single incident. The app includes the ability to create and save all written lists and forms with password protection. Having completed all their Incident forms, users can refer to these forms to help list all their Fears. The app includes the following eight pre-defined fears, to which the user is free to add:

* Other people's opinions
* Not getting what I want
* Not having control of the situation
* Financial insecurity
* Abandonment
* Physical harm
* Failure
* Success

The fifth step is examining each Fear category and answering the following key questions:

* Why did I have this fear?
* When did I first notice this fear in my life?
* How did I hold on to this fear?
* What did this fear make me do?
* What chain of circumstances did this fear set in motion in my life?
* How did I react to this fear?
* What decision did this fear cause me to make?
* How did self-reliance fail me?
* What should I have done instead?

And the sixth and final step is examining Sex Relations, where users answer all the following questions regarding each of their sexual relationships:

* How was I selfish?
* Where was I dishonest?
* Where was I inconsiderate?
* Who was hurt in this situation?
* Did I arouse jealousy, suspicion, or bitterness?
* Where was I at fault?
* What should I have done instead?
* What will I do in the future?
* Did I pray or have spiritual conversations with him/her?
* Did I pray for him/her?
* Did I enjoy his/her company?
* Did we bring each other closer to God?

"The process of completing a Life Inventory doesn't directly address anyone's specific problems or addictions, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life," stated indie developer James Hollender. "The Life Inventory for iPad app gently assists the user in probing into not only what happened, but also why it happened."

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 12.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Life Inventory for iPad or Life Inventory (for iPhone or iPod touch) is $9.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Lifestyle category. A Lite version of each app is $1.99, a supplement that provides a mock Moral Inventory from which the user can learn by example and experimentation. Review copies are available on request.

VeprIT Resize Sense 1.3.1 - Flexible batch image resizer for Mac - Published on 10/08/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VeprIT released Resize Sense 1.3.1, a new version of the flexible batch image resizer for Mac OS suitable for any need. Resize Sense (MacWorld Gem 2012) saves the user time on repetitive tasks by supporting custom presets, and can apply multiple presets to every image. In addition, Resize Sense allows to manually adjust the crop individually for every image. Resize Sense 1.3.1. brings Retina Display support, user-configurable window layouts and other user interface improvements, and bug fixes.

Zoetermeer, Netherlands - VeprIT is pleased to announce Resize Sense 1.3.1 for Mac OS X. Resize Sense (MacWorld Gem 2012) is a flexible batch image resizer with various resizing options suitable for any need. It stands out from other batch image resizers with the following distinctive features:

Saved user presets:
* A user performing repetitive tasks only needs to configure the resizing options once per task, and save it as a preset. It is even possible to apply multiple resizing presets to every image.

Manual per-image, per-preset crop (and even straighten) adjustment:
* Most other batch image resizers would at best allow to align the crop rectangle to the left/right/top/bottom, but a better control is often required.

Live final image preview:
* The user can see immediately how the final image will look after cropping, extending with solid borders, or distorting.

Batch image cropper & straightener functionality:
* For images of the same size, Resize Sense can be used as a bulk image cropper and straightener, because it supports copying & pasting the crop & straighten configuration between images.

Batch image format converter functionality:
* Resize Sense can be used to convert multiple images from any format supported by the operating system to JPEG, TIFF, PNG, GIF, and BMP.

* Simple, intuitive, self-explanatory user interface

Resizing types supported in Resize Sense:
* Fixed width and height. The images will be cropped if required
* Fixed width or height. The other dimension will be computed based on the original image size
* Fixed output image dimensions. They are assigned to width and height based on the original image orientation. Will be cropped if required
* Fit to a box with defined width and height
* Fit to a box with defined dimensions. They are assigned to width and height based on the original image orientation
* Fixed longest edge size. The other edge will be computed based on the original image size
* Fixed shortest edge size. The other edge will be computed based on the original image size
* Crop only. A special type for the case if only cropping (without specific sizing) is needed

Size units:
* Pixels
* Percents
* Inches
* Centimeters

Resolution units (available when defining size in inches or centimeters):
* Pixels per inch
* Pixels per centimeter

Additional resizing options:
* Enlarge image if the original or the cropped part is too small for the requested size.

Choose how to fix the image aspect ratio if it changes (if the requested size is not proportional to the original). Resize Sense offers the following solutions to this problem:

* Crop the image, aligning the crop rectangle as desired, or even adjusting it manually.
* Add solid borders of a customizable color.
* Distort the image.

New in Resize Sense 1.3.1:
* High resolution Retina Display support. Fixed some important functionality such as cropping and mouse selection in Image Browser
* Fix: importing and some other image operations could be slowed down on Mac OS 10.8 (Mountain Lion)
* The main window layout is now user-configurable
* Remembers the Image Browser thumbnail size after relaunching
* Minor user interface improvements and bug fixes

Testimonials:
"Resize Sense 1.3 is a simple app that does some complex things in a relatively intuitive way. The program provides excellent user documentation to guide you to exactly the setting you need. If you have to resize or crop single or batches of images on a regular basis, you'll be glad to leave the heavy lifting to Resize Sense."

"Resize Sense is an all-in-one batch resizer and cropping tool that will save both time and tedious labor in getting one image - or hundreds of images - to exactly the right size for webpages, email, and layouts."
- Jackie Dove, Macworld senior editor.

"Congratulation for your software, after long search this is the more flexible, powerful and stable."
- Carlo Vigiani, Viggiosoft.

"It has been so long since I was looking for an app that would allow me to make image resizing fast and flexible. I evaluated many applications but all have limitations, and at the end I had to use a script in Automator. I finally found this application, which is the best in its kind. This software does one thing: resize batches of images, but it does so in an excellent manner and with a high degree of customization."

"Highly recommended, the amount requested is absolutely adequate and pays for itself in 30 minutes of tedious manual labor saved."
- Pendolare, Resize Sense user (review on the Mac App Store Italy, translated from Italian).

"I bought this app a couple of days ago and am finding it great.... Resizing images has ceased to be a chore. The layout couldn't be simpler, all on the one screen, very easy to organise you work. I really like the ability to resize to various dimensions all at the same time. Great price and really fast."
- lensable, Resize Sense user (review on the Mac App Store Ireland).

"I recently bought your app and I must say that after many, many, many trials of similar software, yours is the best for my massive bulk resizing. Simply, fast and careful."
- Eddie, Resize Sense user.

"Image resizing and cropping works very well and the app has a nice tidy interface that is easy to learn. I work in a medical industry where I need to be able to reprocess image folders containing hundreds of images and crop them to remove identifiers or technical data. I can do this in a matter of seconds using Resize Sense without the need of employing big cumbersome apps that consume a lot of system resources. Working with family photos is also a breeze. Well done of a very neat app."
- MartinN2067, Resize Sense user (review on the Mac App Store).

"Professional tool for a good price. Nice features, quite easy to use if you understand some basics."
- pp3920, Resize Sense user (review on the Mac App Store).

System Requirements:
Resize Sense 1.3.1 requires a 64-bit Intel-based Apple computer with Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or later. Resize Sense 1.2.0 and earlier versions also work on Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard).

Pricing and Availability:
A trial version of Resize Sense (with disabled results saving) is freely available for download at the application webpage. The current price is 8.9 Euro. The license can be purchased at the download page. Resize Sense is also available on the Mac App Store.

Sherlock Holmes Gamebook App Available on App Store - Published on 10/08/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Sherlock Holmes 1 - Murder at the Diogenes Club by newcomer developer AppEndix LLC is both: a book, in fact a complete novel in the best tradition of the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stories, written by renowned gamebook author Gerald Lientz; and a game, in which players attempt to uncover the secret behind the gruesome Murder at the Diogenes Club with the help of the great Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. The app is the first of eight Sherlock Holmes Solo Mysteries gamebooks by Iron Crown Enterprises.

Guilford, Maine - Sherlock Holmes 1 - Murder at the Diogenes Club by newcomer developer AppEndix LLC is both: a book, in fact a complete novel in the best tradition of the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stories, written by renowned gamebook author Gerald Lientz; and a game, in which you attempt to uncover the secret behind the gruesome Murder at the Diogenes Club with the help of the great Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. Featuring a fully interactive interface with dice rolls, character sheet, sound effects and more, this unique app for the iPhone (including full screen compatibility with iPhone 5/iOS 6) and iPad is now available on the AppStore for just $0.99 USD! No annoying ads, no unlocking - pay a buck and own it!

Sherlock Holmes 1 is the first of eight Sherlock Holmes Solo Mysteries gamebooks by Iron Crown Enterprises to be published as interactive apps, including one title which was never available in English before. The app is universal (iPad/iPhone) and multi-language: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian and Brazilian/Portuguese are supported initially.

App Description:
Scandal shakes London's most exclusive men's club as Colonel Philip Sylvester lies murdered in the reading room. Can you uncover the murderer, the motive and the method? Is anyone among the respected but anti-social members a likely suspect? Can you rely upon Sherlock Holmes or his older (and some say "more accomplished") brother Mycroft for assistance?

YOU are the detective in this intriguing first "gamebook" of the Sherlock Holmes Solo Mysteries (TM) series. This gamebook also includes a second, complete mystery adventure, Irish Star. Two complete Holmes mystery adventures in one app!

What is a gamebook, you ask? A gamebook is unlike a regular book. In a regular book, you read one chapter after another, from 1 to 2 to 3. In a gamebook, at the end of chapter 1, you have to make a decision (or roll the dice, or both); and your decision and the results of your actions determine what chapter you read on from there. In this way, a gamebook does not present you with just one fixed storyline, but splits into dozens and sometimes hundreds of different outcomes. YOU determine how the story goes on. And no two plays are the same.

Feature Highlights:
* Dynamically adapting music
* Atmospheric sound effects
* Create your own detective or play the default character
* Fully automated character/clues sheet and your own digital notebook
* Automatically saves and resumes the story where you left off
* All gamebook rules: virtual animated dice, page flip and random number table
* All the original artwork from the printed book in HD
* Game Center Achievements
* VoiceOver compatible (listen to the text!)
* Supports full iPhone 5 screen
* iOS 6 compatible

Note: This gamebook is an original work. It is not the work of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Language Support:
English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish

Device Requirements:
* 3/4/5 Gen iPhone, iPad, or 3/4/5 Gen iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 139.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Sherlock Holmes 1 (v1.0) is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

In this game players prepare the spooky mansion for guests and hosts for a devilishly fun midnight party of tricks and treats. While decorating the mansion, players travel to the mysterious forest, dark graveyard, castle high in the mountains and meet zombies, ghosts, witches, mummies and vampires. Of course, most of them are just wearing Halloween costumes. But some are not.

Sheffield, United Kingdom - Notus Games studio is pleased to announce the worldwide App Store release of Tricks And Treats HD - a new puzzle game for iPad that the whole family can enjoy. The game has been released in English, German, Ukrainian and Russian with more localizations in the pipeline.

In this game player prepares the spooky mansion for guests and hosts a devilishly fun midnight party of Tricks and Treats. While decorating the mansion we travel to the mysterious forest, dark graveyard, castle high in the mountains and meet zombies, ghosts, witches, mummies and vampires. Off course most of them are just wearing Halloween costumes... but some are not.

* Work your way through 100 puzzle levels.
* Earn lots of gold and silver to buy new upgrades
* Choose from more than 20 power-ups and bonuses
* Use your Match 3 skills to set the highest score
* Relax and enjoy atmospheric Halloween music

This year we bring Tricks'n'Treats to iOS with all levels and content fully optimized for iPad. For the second year in a row game occupies top places in the charts of major PC casual games portals. Here are some samples of player's feedback:
* This is a good game for Halloween, but it is a good game anytime you want to sit and relax after a busy day.
* I don't normally get anything other than hidden object games but this little gem is a treat for Halloween. Love it
* ... There aren't many family-friendly, non-scary games for Halloween, but this one is pure fun, not fright. And I did buy it to enjoy for the month of October.
* This game was fun, and I enjoyed adding to my haunted house with the accumulated points from playing the match3. Pumpkins, skeletons and grave yards, what's not to like! Some levels are a little more challenging than others with unmovable blocks in the way, but there are tools for those who aren't patient enough to work around them. I'm not usually a match 3 fan, but I very much enjoyed this game.
* Tricks and Treats is a classical Match-3 game. But not too easy,and I played lots of them. Bonuses have to be "earned" and can be upgraded the further you play.
* I love this game! The music is good and the graphics are great. I like it so much that I completed the game and then started over again. I relax with this game as a nice switch from the HO and brain/logic games. This game is easy in the beginning but gets more challenging until you have to use your special power ups just go complete the game. I recommend this game to all ages. Have a blast decorating your yard.
* Cute game! Basic match 3 with catch music. Caught myself humming along and tapping foot. Powerups are very helpful. Enjoyed it!

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 54.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
