Pyroco 1.0 HD for iPad and iPhone: Become The King Of The Pyramid - Published on 08/13/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Gamio Entertainment has released Pyroco 1.0 HD for iPad and iPhone, the simple pyramid building board game for all ages. Place the final ball on top and become the king of the pyramid. Ideal for family members, kids, and couples to challenge each other. The game trains the mind and memory. Even kids can handle the easy controls, and they love the cartoon avatars, too. Variations on the basic rules make the game suitable for children, as well as for the experienced players and adults.

Prerov, Czech Republic - Gamio Entertainment has released Pyroco 1.0 HD for iPad and iPhone, the simple pyramid building board game for all ages. In the game, you want to be one who places the final ball on top, and become the king of the pyramid. The game trains the mind and memory. Ideal for family members, kids, and couples who want to challenge each other, or want to actively relax during a break or travel. One player mode is included. It is based on simple rules and has very simple controls. Even kids can handle it, and they love the cartoon avatars, too. Variations on the basic rules make the game suitable for children, as well as for the experienced players and adults. The player is going to learn the rules interactively in a tutorial. The game can be played by one or two people. One player can play against artificial intelligence, two players can play against each other on the same device. A round can be finished in a time under 1 minute, though beginners and children can be
amused for more than 10 minutes, and there is no time limit enforced.

Two players are building a pyramid of balls. Each player possesses a set of 15 balls, either light or dark, and by a single tap on the screen places a ball to grow the pyramid. The base of the pyramid is a 4x4 grid and is viewed from top. Once four balls have been placed next to each other in a square, they can support another ball, which can be placed on top of them, forming a second level of the pyramid. The pyramid has a total of four levels. At the fourth level there is just one ball, placed last by the player who becomes the winner, the king of the pyramid. At any time, a player can decide to pick up a ball anywhere from the pyramid, which doesn't support any other ball, and move it to a higher level, if four balls in a square can support it. By that the player saves one ball in the reserve in that turn. If the player succeeds to make a square of four balls of the same color, they can remove up to two balls anywhere from the pyramid, that do not support anything, and return
them to the reserve, thus saving up to two balls in that turn. The main strategy is to save as many balls of a color as possible during game, so that a player can place the last ball on top of the pyramid and win. There are two variations on this basic rules. Kids can play an easy game, where balls only can be saved by picking them up and moving them to a higher level. The experienced players may enjoy an extended rule set, where up to two balls may be removed from the pyramid also in case the player creates a row of balls of the same color.

The controls are very simple. Balls can be placed, picked up in order to be moved, and removed from the pyramid by a single tap, which is easy for kids and allows for fast and agile matches for the experienced players.

Soft graphics in wood and cute cartoon-style player avatars will keep the family in a friendly mood all the time. Stylish and restful background music will support the player's focus but can be turned off, so that they can listen to their favorite iTunes tracks instead. Individual scores can be shared with friends on-line in the Game Center. Several gameplay goals can be achieved and rewarded by achievement points in the Game Center.

Language Support:
* English, German, Czech

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone / iPad / iPod
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 14.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Pyroco game for iOS is available for only $1.99 (USD) worldwide through the App Store in the Games category.

Pubblog Releases PixSteward 1.0.7 - Advanced Flickr Backup for Mac OS X - Published on 08/13/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Pubblog today announced the release of version 1.0.7 of PixSteward, the essential Flickr backup, Flickr interface, and database for Macintosh. PixSteward Lite, the Mac App Store version of PixSteward is also now available for $9.99. PixSteward lets users download their Flickr photostreams to their Mac, along with any titles, tags, descriptions, geographic info and EXIF data they have entered online. PixSteward is a powerful, easy to use interface to all of Flickr's functionality.

Murfreesboro, Tennessee - Pubblog announces the release of version 1.0.7 of PixSteward and PixSteward Lite, the essential Flickr backup, interface and database for Macintosh. PixSteward Lite is available for $9.99 in the Mac App Store.

PixSteward lets users download their Flickr photostreams to their Mac, along with any titles, tags, descriptions, geographic info and EXIF data they have entered online. With PixSteward's powerful relational database, users can edit metadata as well as find, sort and export single images or multi-picture sets from their Flickr archive -- even when they aren't connected to the Internet. PixSteward is a powerful, easy-to-use, professional-grade interface to Flickr. PixSteward Lite limits users to a single Flickr account and restricts the saved location of the image database file to comply with Apple "sandboxing" requirements for distribution via the Mac App Store.

PixSteward is especially helpful for Flickr users who need to manage multiple Flickr accounts. PixSteward downloads and stores the original images from Flickr -- JPEGs, GIFs and PNGs -- so artwork containing transparency or vector paths (Photoshop JPEG) is preserved.

Photostream search with PixSteward is far faster and more sophisticated than online. PixSteward allows you to enter up to 20 terms per search and lets you name and save frequently-used searches. Database experts can "roll their own" by editing the SQL statement directly.

Results of searches can be rapidly exported from PixSteward for use in other image-editing applications and the user has an option to export "sidecar" text files containing the combined Flickr and EXIF metadata along with pictures.

When you are connected to the Internet and logged in to Flickr, PixSteward permits editing picture metadata, thus insuring sync is maintained between the cloud and your PixSteward local archive.

PixSteward goes well beyond other Flickr backup applications which merely download your photos to a folder. By combining image and metadata backup with a powerful relational database engine, PixSteward gives you the power of Flickr right on your Mac. With PixSteward you can use Flickr with greater confidence, knowing your essential images and information are safely preserved and accessible offline.

As PixSteward's veteran Mac developer John Seward (MailSteward, FileMyFiles) likes to say, "PixSteward doesn't replace Flickr, it completes it."

System Requirements:
* OS X 10.6 or later
* 2.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
PixSteward Lite 1.0.7 is $9.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photography category.
