techBASIC 2.6 Adds WiFi Support for the iPhone and iPad - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Albuquerque-based developer, ByteWorks, Inc. today announces techBASIC 2.6 for iOS, an important update to their comprehensive software development environment for programming, data collection, displaying sophisticated interactive graphics, and analyzing data. techBASIC version 2.6 supports the TCP/IP, HTTP and FTP protocols. iOS App Developers now have the ability to write a program to connect networks using WiFi from their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.

Albuquerque, New Mexico - Byte Works, Inc., today is proud to announce techBASIC 2.6, giving iOS App Developers the ability to write a program to connect networks using WiFi from their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. techBASIC 2.6 supports the TCP/IP, HTTP and FTP protocols. techBASIC 2.6 support for WIFi includes:

* HTTP, giving the developer direct web page access. This includes control over the HTTP request, body, header and value.

* FTP allows files to be transferred. Support parallels the familiar BASIC commands for dealing with the local file system, and includes commands to create directories, delete directories and files, and read and write files.

* TCP/IP is great for general socket access. Like the other protocols, TCP/IP support hooks into the familiar BASIC I/O structure, so once a connection is made, standard BASIC I/O commands can be used to move data back and forth.

"techBASIC 2.4 gave developers the ability to connect to the Internet of Things using Bluetooth low energy. techBASIC 2.6 goes one step further giving developers an easy way to write programs to connect directly to the Internet," said Mike Westerfield, president of Byte Works.

techBASIC is a technical computing environment with built-in calls making it easy to create apps with interactive graphics, access internal sensors, connect to external devices with Bluetooth low energy and to connect to the Internet via WiFi.

techBASIC is also the only language on iOS to provide developers with powerful computing capabilities like a built-in help system and a step-and-trace debugger. techBASIC apps can be compiled and submitted to the App Store using techBASIC App Builder from Xcode on a Macintosh.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 11.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
techBASIC 2.6 is $14.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category.

Smoky Cat Software Releases Heart Graph for Kettlebelling app for iOS - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

UK-based Smoky Cat Software today announced that Heart Graph for Kettlebelling is now available to download on the App Store. Heart Graph, optimised for kettlebelling, circuits and similar activities, plots heart rate during exercise and allows comparison of those graphs between workouts. This comparison lets users exercise at the optimal level to make the most out of their training. Additional features such as automatic rep-counting allow users to focus fully on their training.

Oxford, United Kingdom - Smoky Cat Software today is proud to announce that Heart Graph for Kettlebelling is now available on the App Store for iPhone(R), iPad(R) and iPod touch(R). Heart Graph lets users see how their heart rate behaves during exercise, and crucially supports comparison of the heart rate graph across workouts. This comparison allows users to adjust the intensity of their workout to make the most of each and every session. Users can also monitor the effectiveness of training over time to help meet their own goals.

"Your body is different every day, and it is easy to over-train or take it too easy", says Thomas Wright, founder of Smoky Cat Software. "Perhaps you're tired from work or have a minor illness - it can be better to do a lighter session and give your body the time it needs to recover. Or maybe this is one of those days when you don't feel fully motivated, but actually your body is ready for anything! Heart rate monitoring puts you in control of how hard your workout should be."

The time-based record provided by Heart Graph allows extra information to be easily associated with different parts of the session. For example each set can be highlighted on the heart rate curve, with colours distinguishing between sets of a particular length and those with a fixed number of repetitions. Seeing those sections marked when reviewing workout data supports a deeper understanding of how the body is responding to the training plan.

Features of Heart Graph for Kettlebelling include:
* Plot your heart rate against time during your workout
* Compare heart rate from a "reference set" in a previous workout to your current session
* Review all your workouts offline (e.g., to spot trends in your training)
* Add your own notes to each workout (e.g., to record details of a particular session, sets, reps, how you felt etc.)
* Filter workouts based on the notes you've entered
* Share workout data with friends via email
* Device rotation to landscape for iPhone and iPod touch maximises screen area for graphs

Beyond the basics, a single $1.99 (USD) In-App Purchase will enable the Premium Features of the app, giving you access to more in-depth comparison and additional features to support your workout:

* Audio rep counting so you never lose count - simply make a noise every time you complete a rep and the app does the rest
* Automatic timer for time-based sets lets you know when the set is done - no more watching the clock
* Mark sections of the heart rate graph as either rep-based or time-based sets to better record the details of each specific workout
* Mark the end of each time-based and rep-based set so you can monitor how your heart rate falls when the set is over
* Compare workout and reference set statistics (such as max and mean heart rate) over time to look for trends in your training
* Side-by-side comparison of the reference sets from multiple selected workouts
* Import workout data from other apps or your computer using Garmin TCX format files
* Export workout data to other apps or your computer using Garmin TCX format files
* Attach an image of your heart rate graph to emails for sharing with others

Device Requirements:
* A compatible heart rate sensor: either low-energy bluetooth (BTLE), or ANT+ connected using the Wahoo Fitness Key
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 16.7 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Heart Graph for Kettlebelling 1.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Health & Fitness category.

Paint My Cat 1.3 iOS - UK Top 10 Education App - Bring Drawings to Life - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nanu Interactive today announces Paint My Cat 1.3 for iOS, an update to its revolutionary app that lets kids go from coloring book to interactive 3D simulation of a living cat with one touch. Artists use the app's 80 colors and 3 brush types to color in drawings of headwear and eyewear, zap them into 3D reality, and outfit their cat. All 17 drawings can be downloaded and printed, allowing kids to use their own markers and pencils, snap a photo of the finished drawing, and bring it to life.

North Vancouver, Canada - Nanu Interactive today is pleased to announce Paint My Cat 1.3 for iOS, an update to its revolutionary app that lets kids go from coloring book to interactive 3D simulation of a living cat with a touch of their magic wand. Artists use the app's 80 colors and 3 brush types to color in drawings of their feline and its headwear and eyewear, zap them into 3D reality, and outfit their cat. All 17 drawings can be downloaded and printed, allowing kids to use their own markers, crayons, and pencils, snap a photo of the finished drawing, and bring it to life inside the app.

Feature Highlights:
* 80 colors to choose from
* 3 brush sizes
* Beautiful illustrations and artwork
* Realistic 3D physics and animation
* Stunning visual effects as your pictures come to life
* Customize your cat's appearance with hats and accessories
* Personalize the game with your own colors and ideas
* Pick up and interact with objects in the virtual rooms
* Interact with your cat - you can poke or tickle him and see his reaction
* Develops hand eye co-ordination
* Excellent for fine motor skill development
* Gameplay is simple and kid-friendly
* Animations guide non-readers through the game
* Kid and mom tested
* Completely ad-free
* Cat makes fun sounds
* Progress is saved when you leave the app
* Erase button for when you want to start over
* Fun coloring activity for all ages
* Unique computer vision allows anyone to transfer their drawings from the real world to the iPad

Selected New & Noteworthy by Apple and a top seller around the world, Paint My Cat brings the computationally intensive, algorithmically complex world of interactive 3D animation to iOS. Kids start with a large coloring book drawing of a cat for them to color in. The app includes thick, medium, and thin brush sizes and a choice of 80 different colors, allowing young animators to make their drawing as simple or elaborate as they like. When they finish, touching the magic wand produces an astounding surprise.

There's a puff of smoke and modest pyrotechnics, and when the smoke clears their drawing steps out of the page, completes a tight circle, and sits contentedly. Their drawing has been transformed into a 3D animated character. Every stroke, color, and design detail of the original drawing is now realized in the furry coat of a living cat.

Opening the Playroom, their cat appears on the floor. Tap him and he reacts; touch him and he rolls onto his back. Kids can drag him to any location in the Playroom, toss him a ball of wool, and watch him play. Artists have four different drawings to complete and bring into their cat's 3D world: the walls and floor of the playroom, a rubber ball, a cat's bed, and the door that opens to the outside.

In the Closet is a full-length mirror, and their cat poses in front of it admiring himself. There are six different drawings to complete in this location: headphones, sunglasses, hair bow, top hat, cowboy hat, and goggles. As kids transform each drawing into a 3D, color-mapped object that can be rotated in space, they can let their cat see how he looks in the mirror wearing various combinations of headwear and eyewear. The real-time moving reflection in the mirror is an especially impressive trick.

The final location is the Lab, where a row of test tubes stand on a table with a whiteboard in the background. Their cat can move around the lab trying to satisfy his curiosity about all the equipment in the room. There are six more drawings to color in, including: model rocket, whiteboard, globe, bookshelf, trophy, and flower. Once in the lab, they can be rearranged to create the most pleasing effect. If any skeptics remain, kids can mix chemicals and cause an explosion, which graphically demonstrates that rendered objects are so real they are subject to the laws of Newtonian mechanics.

Paint My Cat also lets young artists work on each of the 17 drawings in the app with traditional tools, like crayons, markers, and pencils. With the drawings downloaded and printed (they are identical to those in the app), kids can color them in as accurately and elaborately as they like (with greater precision than that afforded by a fingertip). Snapping a picture of the finished drawing imports the picture, which is tiled onto the 3D model.

The app has so many positive effects on cognitive development, it has been embraced by special needs experts. According to Penina Rybak of Socially Speaking, "As an SLP (Speech Language Pathologist), who specializes in treating young children with autism and special needs, not to mention difficulty with visuospatial processing and TOT (time on task), this is the first drawing app I have seen that can be developmentally integrated into a visual presentation hierarchy, when educating children with an IEP (Individualized Education Program)." She adds, "I love that this app fosters specific play skills beginning with basic cause & effect, has repeated opportunities for requesting, turn taking, and choice making built into the user interface, and that the app is very decently priced. It is even available in the Mac App Store for educators and parents using Mac computers!"

"Get the whole family involved and have fun painting different toys and accessories for your cats to interact with," urged Alex Ferrier of Nanu Interactive. "This app is fun for all ages. Show off your creativity!"

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 4/4S/5, iPod touch (4th/5th generation), iPad 4/5, and iPad mini
* Requires iOS 3.2 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 49.7 MB

Taxi Professional iPhone App Provides Comprehensive Trip Management Kit - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Developer, Fabrizio Bartolomucci announces Taxi Professional 1.8 for iOS. This is an update to the free app designed to help travelers and taxi drivers connect when traveling. Providing turn-by-turn navigation, taxi booking and accurate fare calculation, the app helps taxi drivers deliver an efficient and trustworthy service and maximize their earning potential. Using the app, drivers identify locations by trip profitability, best paying customers, and highest concentration of travelers.

Rome, Italy - Italian iOS developer Fabrizio Bartolomucci has released the latest update of Taxi Professional 1.8 designed to help travelers and taxi drivers connect when travelling. The free app provides turn-by-turn navigation, taxi booking and accurate fare calculation, helping taxi drivers deliver an efficient and trustworthy service using nothing more than their iPhone.

"Taxi Professional has been designed to give drivers a comprehensive toolkit with which to manage their business using nothing more than their iPhone," explained Bartolomucci, "However Taxi Professional is much more than just a navigation or fare calculation tool."

Taxi Professional allows drivers to pre-book trips and accurately calculate the costs associated with traveling to the customer's location before delivering them to their final destination using the on screen counter. More importantly trip data is recorded and stored giving the drivers the raw information they need to accurately assess their performance.

Drivers can then use this data to identify where their most profitable trips began, where the best paying customers were collected and dropped off, where the highest concentration of travelers can be found at any given time of day. Drivers can then maximize their earning potential by being in the right place at the right time to make only the most lucrative trips each day.

The driver's rate can be configured according to local regulations or their own pricing scheme. Rates can then be shared with other nearby drivers who also use the Taxi Professional app to ensure that pricing remains competitive. Travelers who use the accompanying In Arrivo! can view the driver's rates and trip estimates in advance, before booking a ride directly from the app. This booking is then communicated directly to the driver along with the location of the customer for pick-up.

"The Taxi Professional app is under constant development, adding functions designed to make running a driving business easier," continued Bartolomucci, "In the near future we hope to include tools which will allow drivers to create an annual audit trail of expenses for instance."

"Our commitment to ongoing development means that Taxi Professional will continue to grow, becoming even more valuable to drivers as it adapts to meet their real-world needs."

Language Support:
English and Italian

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 8.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Taxi Professional 1.8 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category.

SCSC Announces a Price Reduction on Scannerz Through February 19, 2013 - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Software and Computer Systems Company, LLC has announced a 20% price reduction on their entire line of drive and system testing products through February 19, 2013. Scannerz is an analysis tool utilizing advanced diagnostic algorithms that analyzes not only the hard drive, but the circuitry supporting the drive. This temporary price reduction will be in effect as of February 12, 2013. The products discounted will consist of Scannerz with FSE, Scannerz with FSE-Lite, and Scannerz Lite.

Reston, Virginia - Software and Computer Systems Company, LLC (SCSC) is thrilled to announce a week long sale on all available packages of Scannerz with FSE or FSE-Lite, and Scannerz Lite for the Mac OS X operating system. The sale will begin on February 12, 2013 and end at midnight on February 19, 2013. Every package combination will be discounted by 20% during this time.

"We thought right now would be a good time to offer a discount for several reasons," stated an SCSC spokesman. "With our recent introduction of full support for CoreStorage technology and extended support for both hardware and software implementations of RAID, we thought the price reduction might be enough to get potential customers to take a better look at all of our products. With other drive testing tools costing in the vicinity of $100, our new discounted pricing will allow users to obtain a high quality drive testing product without spending a fortune. It hardly makes sense to us to spend twice as much on a drive testing tool as it does to get a new hard drive."

"We've upgraded the videos on our web site to make it clear just how easy it is to perform a test on a drive and its components without being a rocket scientist. We now have a newer video which illustrates Scannerz more advanced features as well and a newly released video illustrating Scannerz detecting cable faults in an external hard drive. Scannerz is the only product on the market capable of this type of fault detection, and hopefully people will realize that Scannerz is capable of out performing any other drive testing product on the market when it comes to detecting problems with the drive or its associated system components."

SCSC has indicated that this pricing will be in effect only until February 19, 2013.

The discounted pricing for the products will be as follows:
* Scannerz with FSE will be reduced to $35.96
* Scannerz with FSE-Lite will be reduced to $27.96
* Scannerz Lite will be reduced to $14.36

Software and Computer Systems Company, LLC (SCSC) was formed in 2005. It is legally licensed to do business as a limited liability company in accordance with the laws of the State of Virginia. Originally, SCSC focussed on producing its own line of cross platform software tools using Java. The applications consisted of performance enhancing application tools, engineering and scientific tools, and tools for the medical sciences. In 2008, SCSC changed its focus and became dedicated primarily to developing products for use on the Mac OS X and IOS operating systems. SCSC's product line up for Mac OS X currently consists of Scannerz with FSE, Scannerz with FSE-Lite, FSE, and SpotOff with Spot-O-Meter. Scannerz is a hard drive scanning tool, FSE is a file system events monitor, and FSE-Lite is a less capable version of FSE and is included in all base versions of Scannerz. SpotOff and Spot-O-Meter allow a user to control and monitor Spotlight activity. Copyright (C) 2005-2013 Software and

MileBug 2.6.1 for iOS adds hi-rez graphics and greater locale support - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MileBug for iPhone 2.6.1 adds high resolution graphics and greater internationalization support, as well as requested bug fixes in reports and expenses. With the business rate now at 56.5 cents/mile, users log a $1 tax deduction for every 1.8 miles driven. MileBug also supports iOS 6.x and the larger screen of the iPhone 5. MileBug helps customers track miles driven for business and other reasons, receive their reimbursement and/or tax deduction.

American Fork, Utah - MileBug for iPhone 2.6.1, the popular mile tracker app, adds high resolution graphics and greater internationalization support, as well as requested bug fixes in reports and expenses:

1) New graphics on the tabbar and elsewhere bring a sharper, clearer user experience
2) Greater support for internationalization/localization with currency formatting in Expenses
3) BUG FIX - Reports properly group by Vehicle
4) BUG FIX - Swedish users have use of tabbar on larger iPhone 5 screen
5) BUG FIX - Expenses in Trip records produced from Favorites no longer cross-connected

The Business rate is now 56.5 cents/mile, a one cent increase over last year making this the highest rate in history. The Medical/Moving rate also increased by one cent to 24 cents/mile, while the Charity rate remained at 14 cents/mile.

MileBug also supports iOS 6 and the larger iPhone 5 screen! This means a greater viewing area for both maps and reports, as well as data entry forms. Additionally, MileBug now sports a new color scheme of green and black. Due to the needed upgrade, the minimum iOS supported is now 4.3, requiring an iPhone 3Gs or later model iPhone, but still supporting all models of iPad, including the new iPad Mini, through the 2x magnifier feature.

With just 6 days in the App Store, MileBug 2.6.1 has already received 105 ratings with an average of 4.5 stars.

Back in 2008, just 2 weeks after the iPhone SDK was announced, plans were started for the development of MileBug. It eventually went live in the App Store on August 25th, 2008 as one of only 2600 apps then available in the store. As with many of the early apps, MileBug was priced at $7.99. Over 40 copies were sold that first day. Over time the price has fluctuated, a free version became available, and MileBug continues to be a popular Finance app, consistently appearing in the Finance Top 20 for the past 3 1/2 years, and achieving over 230,000 downloads between the full and lite versions.

With the 2.0 release last year, MileBug now incorporates GPS tracking with full map display. Pins are dropped approximately every 100 meters and can dragged and dropped to edit the trip interactively on the map at any time.

Over the past 4 years, MileBug has enjoyed some recognition:
* On January 4th, 2013, MileBug rose to be the #4 Finance app and #893 overall in the U.S. App Store
* In March 2012, MileBug rose to be the #5 Finance app and #540 overall in the U.S. App Store
* In January 2011, MileBug rose to be the #4 Finance app in the U.S. and #6 in Canada
* In January 2010, MileBug was highlighted in the What's Hot section of 57 App Stores worldwide
* Also in January 2010, MileBug rose to be the #1 Finance app in Ecuador and #2 Finance app in the United States
* Featured in the Apple's WorldWide Developers' Conference (WWDC) banners both in 2009 and 2010
* The MileBug logo appeared in the front window display of the Apple stores in San Francisco and Salt Lake City

Popular on the iPhone and iPod touch, MileBug was released for the Android platform Summer of 2010, and Windows Phone 7 January 2012.

To make next year's taxes that much easier, and the tax returns that much larger, MileBug helps those driving their own vehicles for business, or other reasons receive their reimbursement and/or tax deduction. From small to big business, from realtors to direct sales consultants, MileBug continues to serve those needing a mileage tax break.

"I love this app. I've used it every day for a year and it is just the best...On the first of each month I email a report, print it and get reimbursed. No problems, it just works. Thanks." - customer review, Oct. 2012

"I've used MileBug for several years for business and charity work. It's easy to enter data and generate reports at year end. A good, trouble-free app." - customer review, Oct. 2012

"Overall, I highly recommend [MileBug] because it does exactly what it is intended to do. The ease of use and generated reports make filing taxes less of a headache this year." - Advance IT Solutions, Sep. 2012

"Best Mileage Tracker App: MileBug" - AppChasers, Sep. 2011

In the U.S., the IRS business rate for 2013 is 56.5 cents/mile. MileBug for the iPhone/iPod touch helps people track their miles and provides emailed reports for easy submission to employers, accountants, and the IRS. It only takes tracking 6 miles for MileBug to pay for itself.

Inside the MileBug app is an option to select kilometers instead of miles. From within the Presets, users can define custom rates for business, charity, medical, and other categories. If you get one rate from your employer for reimbursement, and another rate from the IRS for your side business, you simply create two different business rates.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, iPad Mini
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 0.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
MileBug 2.6.1 for iOS is $2.99 (USD) available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Finance category.

GoodReader SDK Available to iPhone and iPad App Developers - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Good.iWare today announces their Software Development Kit, enabling 3rd-party software developers to take advantage of GoodReader's powerful file viewing and annotation capabilities, as well as its versatile server access options. The SendToGoodReader SDK enables developers to offer their own customers the ability to send files and folders directly to GoodReader for reading and PDF annotation, without having to go through any menus, then receive an annotated PDF file back to their app.

Topeka, Kansas - GoodReader, the world's best-selling document reader for iPhone and iPad, now offers a Software Development Kit (SDK), enabling 3rd-party software developers for the iPhone or iPad to take advantage of GoodReader's powerful file viewing and annotation capabilities, as well as GoodReader's versatile server access options. The SendToGoodReader SDK enables developers to offer their own customers the ability to send files and folders directly to GoodReader for reading and PDF annotation, without having to go through any menus, then receive an annotated PDF file back to their app once the user is done with it.

Good.iWare, the developer of GoodReader, has often been asked by software development companies to allow them to use GoodReader's market-leading PDF reading and annotation technologies in their own apps. For developers whose apps produce readable data files, such as PDFs downloaded from secure corporate servers or files with some app-specific data generated on-the-fly, the ability to offer their customers the same high level of reading and annotating experience as GoodReader provides is a huge advantage.

SendToGoodReader SDK provides a quick and convenient way to pass files and folders from third-party apps directly to GoodReader and, optionally, save those files back to the originating app. The process of sending files to GoodReader and receiving them back does not require an internet connection, providing a smooth transfer of files between apps without users worrying about incurring additional charges, or contending with slow or missing internet connections. It also doesn't force users to go through a menu with a selection of target apps, making the transfer process a convenient one-click operation.

"Until now, iOS offered the only way to exchange files between apps on the same device - the "Open In..." function," said Yuri Selukoff, president of Good.iWare. "We believe that our SDK offers a more advanced and convenient way of providing GoodReader's file viewing and annotation capabilities to users of other apps."

Using SendToGoodReader SDK, developers will not only be able to transfer single files one-by-one, but also complex collections of files and folders containing an entire hierarchy of data. With just a click of the "Save Back" button within GoodReader, the annotated file will be quickly saved back to the originating app. This entire process happens without users having to go through an extra step of selecting a target app from a system menu, such as using the standard "Open In..." functionality.

"We hope app developers will appreciate the ease-of-use of our SDK design, and believe such cooperation and app integration will result in a great benefit for their customers," Selukoff says.

About GoodReader:
Since its release, the iPad version of GoodReader has achieved #1 in sales in the U.S., Canada, France, Germany, Spain and many others. GoodReader is known as the top document reader for viewing, navigating and annotating large PDF documents on an iPhone and iPad. Besides its annotate and text search capabilities, other key GoodReader features are active hyperlinks, which enable users to more easily navigate within the document or launch a linked document or website, and PDF Reflow. GoodReader has also set the standard for iOS document readers in the enterprise, offering a high level of document security and synchronization with remote servers. Versions of GoodReader for iPhone and iPad are available in the App Store for $4.99.

Scumbag Turned Scholar Creeps into the App Store - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The AppFlixion Group introduces Scholar or Scumbag 1.0 for iOS. A former torrent site administrator that once served time in federal prison for illegally uploading movies has become a successful software developer and is releasing his second iPhone app entitled, Scholar or Scumbag. With Scholar or Scumbag users put skills to the test. Given a picture, users simply decide whether the an individual in history was a scholar or scumbag.

Erie, Pennsylvania - The AppFlixion Group introduces Scholar or Scumbag 1.0 for iOS. With Scholar or Scumbag users put skills to the test. Given a picture, users simply decide whether the an individual in history was a scholar or scumbag.

History from past to present has been filled with scholars. We've been graced with talent from Einstein to Edison and Shakespeare to Salinger. But the world wouldn't be complete without a few scumbags, as well. Scott McCausland, Co-Founder of The AppFlixion Group, jumped head-first into the "scumbag" category in May of 2005. McCausland knowingly and illegally uploaded Star Wars Episode III to the file sharing site where he was an administrator. As it turns out, the FBI warnings that you see at the start of every film are no joke and McCausland found that out the hard way.

After serving several months in a federal prison, McCausland decided that he needed to make a change. In 2011, after previously obtaining a degree in Management Information Systems, McCausland received his MBA from Penn State University. Enter, the scholar.

"When you make a mistake of the caliber that I did, it stays with you for long after the initial consequences. A lot of people are stuck on my past, but I'm not," McCausland said. "I'm a new person with new goals and new passions."

One of those passions is running a successful iPhone app development business. McCausland, along with partner Josh Layhue, made their initial mark in the App Store with Bust A Caption in late 2012. Their second title is set to be released on February 12, 2013. The app is appropriately entitled, Scholar or Scumbag.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 29.0 MB

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

Award-Winning - From Cheese: Available For iPhone, iPad and Mac - Published on 02/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

After the success of BANG! the Official Videogame and AXL: Full Boost, comes From Cheese 1.3.0, the new, top rated, fun, reverse logic game by the award-winning developer SpinVector. Now available on the App Store and the Mac App Store, from $0.99 USD. Players draw a scent-trail from a piece of cheese to a chubby mouse, then the mouse will smell the trail and follow it all the way backwards to the cheese. The app features 50+ mind-twisting levels, nicely drawn interludes and a jazzy soundtrack.

Benevento, Italy - SpinVector, the Italian developer behind the critically acclaimed, multiple award-winning Bang! the Official Videogame and AXL: Full Boost broadens its presence on the mobile market with From Cheese 1.3.0, a game about the struggle of a chubby mouse to save its starving colony from the cruel intentions of a mad-scientist kid.

The game is now available on the App Store (iPhone and iPad universal) and the Mac App Store. Grand Prize-winning From Cheese is a super-cute game with a unique, reverse logic gameplay: the player draws a scent-trail from a piece of cheese to a chubby mouse, then the mouse will smell the trail and follow it all the way backwards to the cheese.

The game is so easy to learn that it doesn't even feature any explanatory text: you use your finger (or pointer) to draw the path from the cheese, then press the "play" button and the mouse starts following the trail from its end: so, if there's a door that is opened by a button, the mouse must walk over the button and then through the door; but this means that the player will have to draw the path through the door first, then over the button, because the mouse will start from the other end of the trail.

This clever, award-winning gameplay gets very complex as new elements are added to the mazes: vacuum cleaners that will suck the trail, angry cats that will jump above walls, barking dogs able to "freeze" the cats and evil rats trying to pursue the same cheese you desperately need.

An exclusive feature for a puzzler is the continuous undo system: when you draw the scent-trail, you use a certain amount of "scent" that is shown in a "scent-bar" - simply drag your finger (or pointer) along the bar to pin-point your undo at any given particle of the trail. Smart and comfy.

With 50+ mind-twisting levels, nicely drawn interludes and a jazzy soundtrack, From Cheese is ready-fun for any player: casual gamers will enjoy the quick play; experienced puzzler will need all their efforts to try and get the three stars and the golden clock in all levels.

"I'm amazed by the results we've got in terms of awards, critics and, more importantly, user-reviews for our games." said Giovanni Caturano, CEO of SpinVector and From Cheese designer "it's a tremendous thrust to push forward, improve our existing titles and make better and better games to match the players request for innovative and satisfying gaming experiences. Thanks to the hundreds of thousands of gamers who enjoy our games!"

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

Pricing and Availability:
From Cheese 1.3.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide through the App Store in the Games category. The app is also available form the Mac App Store.
