Water Balloon Explosion Reinvents Slicing Game Apps - Published on 02/27/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Big Future Media introduces Water Balloon Explosion 1.0.1, now available in the App Store. Water Balloon Explosion features Hard and Babysitter modes. With balloons actually coming at the screen, it boasts an exciting new style of gameplay, reinventing the slicing app game model. With 3 modes of gameplay, including the new Babysitter mode, designed for the toddler, making it easy for them to keep playing without having to ask the parent to restart the game, it will quickly become a fan favorite.

"Who doesn't love a good water balloon fight? My five year old son was asking to pop water balloons on my iPhone one day, and I realized he had a great idea. What if we incorporated the swiping actions of games like Fruit Ninja into a water balloon game, except make the balloons actually move towards the screen? My kids haven't been able to put it down since. The great thing is, I am also playing it a lot, especially in those quick five minute slots where you want to pass some time having fun," said Adam McArthur, one of the founders of Big Future Media.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad

Big Future Media is brand spanking new. Our small and therefore far more trustworthy team of self-proclaimed app experts came together under the desire to do one very important, even transcendent, thing - entertain the crap out of people. And there's a lot of room to do more and do better in that arena. Right now it's character apps and games, but with time and the encapsulation of a Hollywood movie script, maybe we can make the world a better place too. Copyright (C) 2013 Big Future Media.

MacMate Now Includes Filesharing for Large Files - Published on 02/27/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MacMate, the Mac cloud storage and hosting service, which launched to replace Apple's MobileMe service in 2012, has added its sixth key feature into the growing MacMate cloud service: FileSharing, the ability to easily send any file, any size, to anyone. With a few clicks, users can drag or select a file to share, add a message and send securely. The service is available from just $29.00 USD per year allowing Mac users to share their cloud more easier than ever.

New York, New York - MacMate, the Mac cloud storage and hosting service, which launched to replace Apple's MobileMe service in 2012, has added its sixth key feature into the growing MacMate cloud service: FileSharing, the ability to easily send any file, any size, to anyone. With a few clicks, users can drag or select a file to share, add a message and send securely.

With a few clicks, users can drag or select a file to share, add a message and send securely. There's no file-size limits, no bandwidth restrictions and no limit to the amount of files that can be shared. It's quick, secure and has some innovative features like low-resolution previewing, expiry date and download notification, as well as being able to share a file with multiple users (cc'd or bcc's) and mailing lists - so a file can be shared with the whole company, school or an entire customer base for example. The really great news is that this unlimited file-size sharing service starts at just $29.00 USD per year, compared to $99.00-plus for comparable services.

Gary Hall, founder and CEO of MacMate said "We're continuing to add amazing services to MacMate. FileSharing works amazingly and is the most exciting new feature since we launched MacMate. It addresses problems customers have sending large files via email or FTP - offering them an elegant replacement - at an amazing price. FileSharing is quick, simple and secure."

Recently MacMate enhanced its hosting service - popular with iWeb users as well as anyone looking for Mac web hosting services - with easy-to-use SEO injectors and true multi-site and multiple domain capability for both websites and email. What's more is that the hosting is in fact very well specified: 100% uptime cloud clustered hosting with multi-continent load balancing and failover - something you'd normally pay significantly more for. As too are the business-class email facilities that come with MacMate.

From an established, award-winning ISP, MacMate's sixth key cloud-services under one roof represent a new chapter in how to share your cloud: hosting (from any web design program), galleries, email, cloud storage, filesharing and calendars.

MacMate promises to add additional functionality soon with public download folder enhancements, guest upload capability as well as a whole new, re-mastered gallery feature. With major product upgrades every couple of months there's surely much more to come from MacMate in 2013.

MacMate was designed specifically as an alternative to MobileMe and to fill the gaps left by iCloud, namely Mac cloud storage, iWeb hosting and galleries. Since its first launch in April 2012, new features have been added and improved and it's gathered a loyal following around the world. MacAce owns its own network based in both London and Bristol in the UK, New York and Boston in the US - with superfast links the world over. It's an ISP that proudly guarantees all of its services and has achieved notoriety, in the UK particularly, when it was crowned Best Overall ISP (Customer Choice) in the 2012 ISPA awards, as well as numerous other "Best ISP" and "Best Web Host" awards during the last 4 years.

Pricing and Availability:
MacMate starts at just $29.00 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) per year for the basic cloud disk storage at 5GB, email, iCal calendar hosting and now FileSharing. The top-of-the-line MacMate Pro ($99.00) package includes the web hosting and galleries features too. Included is a new iOS app for file storage, file sync and gallery management. Both are available from the MacMate website.

Corpus Collusion Adds Retina Display Graphics To The Dream Log App - Published on 02/28/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Corpus Collusion today announces The Dream Log 1.5, an update to its creative writing tool developed specifically for the iPad. Designed for both creative writers and dream recorders alike, this stylish journal provides six luscious backdrops to inspire imaginative thought and pair with preconscious musings. Features such as low-contrast themes and an alarm clock facilitate a morning writing practice. Version 1.5 adds iOS 6 support, sort by year, and more immersive layout to the program.

Oakland, California - Corpus Collusion today upgraded its beautiful writing tool, The Dream Log, for Retina Display. This stylish journal provides six luscious backdrops to inspire imaginative thought and pair with preconscious musings. For both creative writers and dream recorders alike, thirteen delightful chimes can wake users from slumber.

"Corpus Collusion designs software as visually sleek as the iPad itself," said company co-founder and visual designer Vibrata Chromodoris. "The iPad's Retina Display is a pleasure to work with, and I know our users get exactly the rich sensory experience I intend."

The Dream Log makes it easy to keep a creative writing practice current. Whether journalling dreams, as consciousness explorers such as Jung recommend, or chronicling the day's affairs, writing every day is a popular inspirational device in the creative person's toolkit. Features such as low-contrast themes and an alarm clock facilitate a morning writing practice.

The included alarm clock features thirteen chimes, an intuitive interface, and an anachronous styling. Its ambient tones were specifically chosen to keep the last moments of the user's dreams from shifting into nightmares. To set the alarm time, the user simply drags the clock hands. The fantastic styling of the clock face inspires dreaming of other worlds, and the clock shifts colors, too, to match motif.

The Dream Log serves as a 21st century writing tool, taking advantage of modern technology unavailable in a bound paper journal. The user can organize entries by date created or last opened, with calendar days rendered to merge into the background. Each entry keeps its own theme and font choice. Fonts are styled in bold for onscreen legibility, but export in normal weight via email, print, or PDF. Users can share their entries via Facebook, LiveJournal, or Blogger. Version 1.5 also adds the ability to sort by year in a fun collapsable view.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iPhone OS 5.1 or later
* 62.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
The Dream Log 1.5 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Lifestyle category.
