Common Core Curriculum for The Prisoner of Carrot Castle App Announced - Published on 11/25/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Helping teachers find creative material to teach Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in their classrooms, Purple Carrot Books has launched a set of CCSS aligned reading strategies for grades K-3 for The Prisoner of Carrot Castle picture book app. The Prisoner of Carrot Castle has enjoyed over 40,000 downloads from the Apple App Store and offers discounts to schools. Teachers can connect their iPad to a classroom SMART Board and read the book with all the interaction while kids watch and enjoy.

Cameron Park, California - Curriculum for The Prisoner of Carrot Castle was written by certified teacher Cyndie Sebourn of Apps With Curriculum. Ms Sebourn saw what was coming and started an educational technology service to develop Common Core-aligned course work for book app developers. Sebourn, a retired Arkansas educator, founded Apps With Curriculum to make educational apps better suited for classroom use. Her own book app with accompanying CCSS aligned curriculum, Smarty Britches Nouns, teaches kids about nouns through a Southern-themed story with engaging interactions that reinforce the learning.

The Prisoner of Carrot Castle has enjoyed over 40,000 downloads from the Apple App Store and offers discounts to schools. After downloading the app, teachers can connect their iPad to a classroom SMART Board(R) and read the book with all the interaction while kids watch and enjoy. Teachers can use the reading strategies offered in the CCSS aligned curriculum as a course of study that is cross curricular in subject areas and involves technology with education, an important aspect of CCSS.

With the roll out of Common Core State Standards (CCSS) there are lots of questions and issues. Most educators support the standards, but are concerned about the lack of training and proper implementation. Publishers and others are asking how they can help teachers and administrators implement the standards.

"We provide educational resources for children from three to eight-years-old through books in digital formats and curriculum that teaches healthy life skills - we call it learning entertainment." Chris Pedersen, Owner Purple Carrot Book

Dr. PetPlay Is 10% iPad App, 90% Child-Directed Fun - Published on 11/25/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Pretendasaurus debuts Pretend Play Apps for the iPad: Dr. PetPlay and Dr. PetPlay Free. Dr. PetPlay lets children ages 6-10 be a veterinarian and give their own stuffed animals a checkup. The app's features, just like a blanket fort or mini kitchen, become a fun part of children's imaginative play in the real world. Dr. PetPlay Free comes with a Cat so that children can truly experience the app's total play potential. The full version features 10 popular animals.

Portland, Oregon - Pretendasaurus, a Portland-based children's app studio, today launches Dr. PetPlay and Dr. PetPlay Free exclusively for the iPad. The first in a series of Pretend Play Apps, Dr. PetPlay is COPPA compliant, iOS 6 and 7 ready and available on the App Store.

Dr. PetPlay is not a game. It has no rules or levels and the flow is open-ended. The amount of players is only limited by the roles kid's dream up, which makes it easy for families and lots of friends to play or for a child's imagination and all of their animals. Using children's own stuffed animals, toys, or even drawings with the app means there are no toys with sensors or codes needed. Cooperative role playing can cultivate empathy as children take turns being a doctor or animal caregiver.

Brent Engels, Chief Creative Officer of Pretendasaurus explains, "During user testing, kids gathered all of their stuffed animals, invited everyone in the house to play and handmade props that transformed ordinary spaces into pet clinics, zoos, pet stores and animal adoption centers. The children thought of new ways to play every time they opened the app."

Engels continues, "The app itself is intentionally simple. It's a different experience than managing cartoon characters, scoring points or placing stickers. As parents, we believe in preparing safe digital environments that empower children and embrace their favorite ways to play."

As family-friendly developers, Pretendasaurus respects privacy. There are no ads, in-app purchases, social media access, third-party advertising or links to the web. Buttons which lead to the App Store for reviews (or free version to buy) are protected by a custom parental gate. All data and photos are contained within the app and no identifying information is gathered.

Dr. PetPlay Free comes with a Cat so that children can truly experience the app's total play potential. Currently, the full version has 10 popular animals and is available exclusively on the iPad App Store at the introductory price of $2.99.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad 2 and newer
* Requires iOS 6.1 or later
* 38.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Dr. PetPlay 1.0 is $2.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

AppDaddy Technologies Releases Tactical NAV HD For iPad - Published on 11/25/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Tactical NAV HD, a battle-tested app originally created for military personnel, is now available for the iPad. Tactical NAV HD assists military service members and first responders in mapping, plotting, photographing waypoints, building and drawing overlays, and sharing information with other users on the battlefield and back at home. This app has even been used to call for artillery and mortar strikes against insurgent forces during combat.

Fort Bragg, North Carolina - Tactical NAV HD, a battle-tested app originally created for military personnel, is now available for the iPad. The app assists military service members and first responders in mapping, plotting, photographing waypoints, building and drawing overlays, and sharing information with other users on the battlefield and back at home. The app has even been used to call for artillery and mortar fire against insurgent forces during combat.

"We are extremely proud to announce Tactical NAV HD for the iPad," said Jonathan J. Springer, app creator and active-duty U.S. Army soldier.

Springer, who is currently stationed at Fort Bragg, N.C., originally created the app during a combat deployment with the 101st Airborne Division while they were deployed to the Pech Valley in Kunar Province, Afghanistan. It gained worldwide attention after a free-lance journalist witnessed him using Tactical NAV to call for artillery fire during an enemy attack on base. The app was successfully used to neutralize the insurgent threat.

"What we've done with Tactical NAV HD is create something that has never been done before on the iPad. Once you use it, you'll see what we're doing here. There's no other application on the App Store that does what TACNAV HD does," said Springer.

Some of the features that Tactical NAV HD offers include live map annotations, drawing and distance tools, actual U.S. military graphics and symbols for plotting units and formations, photo and video saving tools, MMS and Facebook sharing features, and an extensive list of other features.

Alan Corbett, lead engineer for Tactical NAV HD, really enjoyed working on this project. "Once again, we push Apple's hardware to it's limits. We have over 500 hours and 50,000 lines of code in Tactical NAV HD, compiled for both 32 and 64-bit iPads alike. Wait until you see the drawing and distance functions. We think you're going to love what we've created for you ... and we're just getting started," said Corbett in an interview.

Springer reiterated Corbett's comments and promised users would experience a military grade application never before seen on the iPad. "After spending more than 24 months in Iraq and 12 months in Afghanistan, I was fortunate enough to be able to use some of the best equipment available to conduct combat operations in support of my country. Tactical NAV HD is a combination of many of those tools and systems, and I'm proud to offer it to users everywhere," said Springer.

Feature-Filled Update to Multiplayer Online Combat Game MEG: RVO - Published on 11/25/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The latest update to Skunkwerks Kinetic Industries' intense and addictive top-down multiplayer online combat simulation game MEG RVO 2.3.0 features new weapons, a state-of-the-art core game engine, a new single game/franchise option, and more. The app is compatible with iPad and available now in the App Store. MEG: RVO transforms gamers into contractors and puts them to work for a sinister corporate entity called "Slate Kinetic", which is training Remote Vehicle Operators to explore new worlds.

Cupertino, California - Global fans of Skunkwerks Kinetic Industries' remarkably intense and astonishingly addictive top-down multiplayer online combat simulation game MEG: RVO can now download the latest version, and enjoy a wide range of new features.

Brilliantly combining action, strategy and multiplayer combat, and optimized for the iPad's Retina display, MEG: RVO transforms gamers into contractors and puts them to work for a sinister corporate entity called "Slate Kinetic", which is training Remote Vehicle Operators (RVO) to explore new worlds.

Contractors must join campaigns and skilfully equip their combat vehicle - known as a "rig" - with weapons and armor, deploy various structures to assist in defense, make the best use of terrain allies, and battle against other players and A.I.-controlled enemies in order to gain control of strategic locations within the app's simulated environment.

With experience, talent and a little luck, contractors will earn Slate Kinetic's currency known as "SKN" (pronounced "skin"), which they can use to purchase new rigs, weapons, armor and defensive systems in the Slate Marketplace. Plus, contractors can leverage their combat experience to unlock more powerful equipment, and use their robotic MEG Unit to retrieve salvaged equipment from defeated foes.

And now in MEG: RVO's latest version, contractors can use the new Aiming Reticule (a HUD feature that provides a better idea of their current weapon's aiming trajectory and range), and access some extra firepower against nearby enemies by destroying one of the new Explosive Reactors at the correct moment. They can also access the Facility Map (a new indoor simulation zone), and keep an eye out for SKI Turrets (large sentry turrets that guard specific areas of the simulation zone).

Other major improvements and enhancements include:
* New client/server architecture
* New core game engine ("the SKU engine") that integrates several state-of-the-art commercial game development packages, as well as in-house developed technology
* New single game/new franchise option (instead of 5 apps per month)
* New expansion packs (Tier1 will cover 2013-2014)

"Many games on the iPad, while accessible and entertaining, lack long-term replay value," commented Ian Jardine of Skunkwerks Kinetic Industries. "MEG: RVO aims to combine the casual accessibility of these more disposable games, with the depth and player-retention of MMO/RTS games such as World of Warcraft. There are currently no games on the market which combine all the unique aspects of MEG: RVO gameplay, and the strong positive feedback we've received from gamers worldwide has confirmed for us that we're on the right track, and have created something unique, special and, of course, intense and addictive!"

Currently, MEG: RVO is available in two versions: no cost and full. The no cost version allows users to play as a "Guest" for as long as they wish. The full version provides access to better gear, and allows users to accumulate combat experience points and in-game "SKN" currency, as described above. Plus, they can choose a unique username to impress allies and terrify enemies.

Skunkwerks Kinetic Industries is also committed to constantly updating the app with more environments, new rig chassis, new enemy types, new defensive systems, new deployable structures, and graphic and performance improvements.

Added Mr. Jardine: "The ultimate goal for the MEG franchise is a near-infinite, open-world game, with no well-defined start or end. Skunkwerks Kinetic Industries seeks to build a community of players who will enjoy spending time inside the game, interacting with the game environment and with other players, and contributing to in-game commerce."

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 156 MB

Pricing and Availability:
MEG RVO 2.3.0, the updated and improved top-down multiplayer online combat simulation game that fans worldwide are calling intense and addictive, is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

Created in December 2011, Skunkwerks Kinetic is an autonomous new project launched by the founders of Vancouver-based Skunkwerks Software in collaboration with a newly-formed creative team. The founders have a solid history of developing innovative technology through Skunkwerks Software and were named to BC Business magazine's list of Top 20 Innovators in 2013. Skunkwerks Kinetic's focus is to create a single, original, Action Real Time Strategy game franchise that will eventually expand into additional markets. From its current iteration, the MEG franchise will evolve into a Massively Multiplayer Online, Action Real Time Strategy (MMO/ARTS) game.

touchAble 2 Offers No-Compromise iPad Control Of Ableton Live - Published on 11/25/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Berlin based Zerodebug today introduces touchAble 2, the long-awaited whole new version of its dedicated Ableton Live controller app for iPad. touchAble 2 offers a high level of controls and customization at bargain rates. touchAble 2 is available as free update for all existing users and runs on all generations of iPad. touchAble 2 has been completely redesigned from the ground up, with stability and performance in mind - as well as an array of new and improved features.

Berlin, Germany - Zerodebug today is very pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of touchAble 2, the long-awaited whole new version of its dedicated Ableton Live controller app for iPad. During the last months, the Berlin-based developers team Zerodebug have focused their efforts to create touchAble 2 the ultimate iOS control surface entirely dedicated to Ableton LIVE.

touchAble App has become increasingly popular since it has arrived on the market in september 2010, as more Live users realize the flexibility and the high level of controls and customization offered by the app; at bargain rates compared with the dedicated hardware controllers currently available. Countless artists around the globe - from bedroom producers to award winning artists - use it on stage, in their studio or while on the road.

touchAble 2 has been completely redesigned from the ground up but also compatible with all iPad generations. All the new features of version 2 are available to users running touchAble on iPad1.

touchAble 2 now features a Template Editor Module allowing users to edit, create, and design controller templates directly within the app using XY Pads, Faders, Rotaries, Labels, Buttons and Containers. Any Live parameter in the current Set can be assigned, as well as MIDI messages. Templates can contain multiple pages and can be saved, restored, and combined with other touchAble's Modules.

TouchAble 2 ships with the new Midi Clip Editor , a powerful tool to edit MIDI clips. Creating a melody, a chord progression, or a rhythm pattern with the Midi editor view is very intuitive. The Drum Mode makes it easy to lay down a drum loop, while the Chord Mode allows for precise note placements and lengths. A set of editing tools transform a simple patttern to a series of very advanced MIDI clips; Duplicate, reverse, shrink, expand, delete or mute any notes on the fly.

The app now offers a Browser which enables access to Lives Library, including all of Lives Devices, Instruments, Samples, Drums & Sounds. Load a device on a track or a sample on a drum pad using a simple drag & drop at any time.

To ease control of very big sets, touchAble 2 introduces an overview that allows quick access to any position in the set. Live 9 Users can now use the Clips Module Module to manage their Live Set - Create or delete Tracks, Scenes, Clips and even stop buttons - without ever touching your Computer. The transport bar provides a set of advanced Live session tools and controls.

Users can now play their favorite instrument banks, samples and VSTI with the Isomorphic Keyboard, the Piano Keyboard or the Drumpad, three different interfaces, that can all send MIDI Notes with positional velocity, as well as pitchweel and aftertouch messages to Live and other applications running on the computer. With In-Key engaged, only notes that are included in the specified key are assigned to the keyboards, allowing for fantastic chord progressions and beautiful melodies even in the hands of a novice. See what you are playing: Drum pads display and update name of slots. The Repeat mode allows to create complex rhythm patterns on the fly.

The Devices Module provides quick control in Live situations. The Combo mode gathers the devices that are going to be used frequently within a live session. The intuitive Snap mode with quantization allows for wild changes that snap back to the original value when released. The new interface makes navigation between banks or tracks very easy. For some of Live's devices, a native template mimics the device in Live - providing a well known interface that will make users feel right at home.

The completely overhauled XY Pad gives you hands-on control of the effects applied; you can manually mix and match up to 12 parameters with 4 dots. It features now an intuitive gesture recorder, an Instant Mode for quick effects on the fly similar to the Kaoss Pad, and includes physics functions per dots with gravity and bouncing, and snapshots with morphing synced to the tempo of the session. Parameters can now be assigned within the configuration menu or simply using the new Auto Learn function.

* touchAble's Mixer lets users adjust Volumes, Sends and Pans - on normal tracks as well as on return tracks
* It provides access to the Crossfader and enables you to change the A/B assignments
* Accurate dB readings and level meters provide now a high level of control
* The Mixer can be switch to fullscreen mode to double the amount of control - or to stretch the faders over the full iPads length, providing additional accuracy
* The intuitive snap mode and multiple controls per track make it the perfect tool for live performances as well as studio-use

touchAble expands your workflow by adding a hardware controller connection feature. By using the Apple camera connection kit usb adapter or any other MIDI interface for Apple IOS, touchAble 2 can map several control functions such as Devices controllers, menus and module switches, providing the ultimate level of interaction : combine the best of physical touch combined with the efficiency of multitouch screen.

Thanks to the new Server & Scripts, it is now possible to run an unlimited number of iPads with touchAble at the same time. On Windows, it does not require any 3rd party MIDI software anymore.

Statement:
"We have rewritten touchAble 2 from the ground up - with stability and performance in mind. But also, we wanted to stand clear of the planned obsolescence that affects the iOS World and consumer electronics in general. 3 Years after the initial release, a big number of people are still using touchAble on their iPad 1 - and therefore it was our goal to keep touchAble compatible with all generations of iPad. A well built MIDI Controller can be used for years - why would it not be the same with an app? For this reason, we have written a completely new graphics engine based on OpenGL, that now keeps touchAble fluent across all kinds of devices - and will continue to do so in the future! Our goal was to create the app that you and us always wanted touchAble to be - and now, 9 months after publishing a survey to our user base - we are happy and proud that we have integrated almost all the features that were wished for. We feel that it was well worth the time and effort - and we hope you
will agree with us when you touch it."

Combined with its strong integration in Live, its seven different modules (Clips, Mixer, Devices, Keys, Pads, XY Pad, Template Editor) and a MDI Clip Editor touchAble 2 covers every control element of Live's session view. touchAble opens up a wide range of creative performance techniques beyond the typical knobs and faders paradigm. It takes a musical and seamless approach to controllerism, with all areas of the interface carefully designed and optimized for intuitive and efficient touch-screen operation as well as Ableton Live workflow. In short - it makes Live Sessions touchable.

Device/System Requirements:
* Compatible with all generations of iPad
* Requires iOS 5 or later
* Ableton Live 8 & Live 9
* Mac OSX 10.5 and above or Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8
* touchAble Server (downloadable for free)

Pricing and Availability:
touchAble 2 is $24.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Music category. The update is free for previous owners.

Really Get to Know Yourself - Step by Step with a Life Inventory App - Published on 11/25/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

James Hollender's Life Inventory apps help users learn to know themselves. These apps, once understood are amazing and built-in instructions are a great help. They guide users step by step in creating their own Moral Inventory which can provide greater self understanding of personality, strengths and weaknesses, leading to a better knowledge of self than they ever thought possible. Life Inventory guides the user through six different steps, each with its own activity grouping.

Revere, Massachusetts - James Hollender's Life Inventory apps help users learn to know themselves. These apps, once understood are amazing and built-in instructions are a great help. They guide users step by step in creating their own Moral Inventory, which can provide greater self understanding of personality, strengths and weaknesses leading to a better knowledge of themselves. These apps allow any user, even someone not in a 12-Step program, to learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible and at only a small fraction the cost of a single visit to a therapist.

The Canadian Reviewer has suggested Life Inventory may even become your always available digital therapist: "If your smartphone has become your personal trainer, assistant, and even financial advisor, why not turn it into your therapist as well? Life Inventory app for iOS is here to help you understand what makes you tick. This app helps you create your own Life Inventory or Moral Inventory to provide you with better understanding of your personality, strengths, and weaknesses to help you live a better life."

Both the iPad and iPhone/iPod touch versions accomplish exactly the same thing, only the interface is considerably different for each because of the significant differences in screen size.

The process of completing a Life Inventory does not directly address anyone's specific problems, habits or addictions, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life. The Life Inventory apps 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?

Life Inventory guides the user through six different steps, each with its own activity grouping, for making a Life Inventory:

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

Throughout the process, users are encouraged to enter data into their Inventory, be completely honest about themselves and take advantage of encouragement and support from others.

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 related each Entity.

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 more if desired:

* Other people's opinions
* Not getting what I want

"The process of completing a Life Inventory doesn't directly address anyone's specific problems, habits 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 app gently assists the user in probing into not only what happened, but also why it happened."

The Life Inventory for iPad app was rated as the 3rd Top iOS App for 2012: "Life Inventory for iPad: This iPad top iOs apps 2012 has the potential to let users create their very own Life Stock, which may present higher self-understanding of their character, strengths, and weaknesses. Life Stock is geared towards folks working by manner of a 12 step AA program and has quite quite a bit of spiritual connotations as faith and fellowship is the cornerstone of these kinds of programs. It assists customers in probing into not solely what happened, but in addition why it happened. Life Stock is certainly equivalent to moral inventory. Because the idea behind the app is advanced, new users might wrestle a bit with it. Life Stock is suitable with iPad and requires iOS 5.0 or later. This app costs USD 9.99. There may be additionally an iPhone version available."
