Tasa's Mineral Database app now supports iPhone and iPod touch - Published on 06/06/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Tasa Graphic Arts, Inc. today announces Mineral Database 1.2, an update to its popular interactive reference for iOS devices. Compiled by M. Darby Dyar and Mickey E. Gunter and illustrated by Dennis Tasa, Mineral Database features entries for more than 300 common mineral species. Ideal for field use, this app provides a quick reference for students, educators, professionals, or anyone interested in minerals. Version 1.2 is now a universal app so that it may be installed on all devices.

Taos, New Mexico - The Mineral Database compiled by M. Darby Dyar and Mickey E. Gunter and illustrated by Dennis Tasa is now a universal app so that it may be installed on the iPhone and iPod touch as well as the iPad. If you have the iPad version, just update to version 1.2 and then install it on all your iOS devices. If you were waiting for the iPhone version, just go to the App Store and purchase it. The app requires iOS 6.1 or later.

The screen layout for the iPhone is very different than the iPad screens. There are multiple views that may be selected from the main menu. However, all of the data and features from the iPad version are included in the iPhone version, just the user interface is different.

This app provides a quick reference for students, educators, professionals, or anyone interested in minerals. This searchable database is easy to use. No internet connection is required. Ideal for field use. Recently updated to include 3D crystal structures that you can rotate and enlarge to fill your screen.

Entries for more than 300 common mineral species cover the vast majority of occurrences without presenting an overwhelming number of obscure species rarely encountered. The software provides hand sample photos, photomicrographs of thin sections, physical properties, 3D crystal structure animations, optical properties, classification, and occurrence data as well as partial data for many more species, varieties, groups, sub-groups, and series.

Search for color, hardness, and streak in field and classroom uses. Use the app as a companion to a polarizing light microscope by searching for birefringence or refractive index. Identify your unknown mineral through use of any or all 54 search criteria. The comprehensive search feature allows mineral identification by using known physical properties (such as color, streak, luster etc.) or crystal and optical properties. Or, you can visually search the hand sample photos and photomicrographs using the pop-up image galleries.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.1 or later
* Universal Application
* 693 MB

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Creating Your App today announces Electronic Toolbox Pro 7.01.04, a significant update to their popular electronics engineering app for iOS devices. Unveiled in 2009, Electronic Toolbox Pro was the first of its kind to debut on the AppStore and continues to be the go-to electronic reference and calculator resource for professionals, hobbyists, and students. Version 7.01.04 includes 72 individual tools, provides iCloud and Dropbox support, and features a fresher design to its interface.

Essen, Germany - Creating Your App today is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of Electronic Toolbox Pro 7.01.04, a significant update to their popular electronics engineering app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices. Unveiled in 2009, Electronic Toolbox Pro was the first of its kind to debut on the AppStore and continues to be the go-to electronic reference and calculator resource for professionals, hobbyists, and students.

"Whether diodes and ICs, Electronic Toolbox Pro is a toolbox in your pocket." asserts Nathan Kline of What's On iPhone (15 August 2012). "Electronic hobbyists, and engineers can use these tools to increase their productivity and stop lugging around large reference books. It's great to see support for less popular areas of the app space."

Specifically designed for anyone who wants to learn about electronics, Electronic Toolbox Pro provides a vast amount of background information and underlying formulas in a comprehensive glossary (only available in English). Electronic Toolbox Pro can be customized in several different ways. For example, the Organizer helps sort and arrange all tools according to need. A global search can search for terms across tools of Electronic Toolbox Pro efficiently and effectively. There is also a parametric search for components such as Transistors or ICs which makes it possible to search and filter results by entering parameter values.

Feature Highlights:
* Most comprehensive and complete Electronics app available
* Designed for Novices as well as Experts
* Includes 72 individual tools from "A" like ASCII Table to "Z" like Zener Diode calculation
* Provides wide variety of simple and complex tools, such as the resistor color code conversion to the PCB Trace width tools
* Various calculation tools available, such as the NE555 circuit calculation and the passive cooling calculator
* Includes reference tools with millions of component specs for ICs, Transistors, FETs, Controllers with parametric searches, pinout and cross reference information, and complete datasheets
* Provides information about Batteries, Drill sizes, Hybrid Amplifiers, Socket pinouts, package sizes and much more
* Includes conversion tools, such as the Unit conversion tool, the HEX/Decimal/Float Tool, Frequency and AWG / SWG tools
* Customizable arrangement of tools for quick and easy access
* Includes a scientific desktop calculator, a frequency generator, and an oscilloscope
* Comprehensive reference glossary
* Content can be updated "over-the-air" and amended quickly and easily
* Maintain diagrams, documents, and specs of a project
* iCloud and Dropbox support
* No ads or in-app purchases
* Can be used without Internet access
* Special keyboard available for quicker entry of SI units

"On the app, you can browse a huge built-in database of important electrical references and save the required ones through the app's menu," says John McNamara of The App Review Zone, who identified Electronic Toolbox Pro as one of its top "10 Awesome Phone Apps for Engineers" (25 May 2012). "Without a doubt, Electronic Toolbox will serve as a good reference database for those users who need information and conversion features combined into one convenient service."

One of the key features of Electronic Toolbox Pro is the Projects tool. This tool gathers all the information throughout the app, imports, exports, and prints Projects, and allows a single containment unit of components, circuit diagrams, and additional information. Users can store and collect information, calculation results, diagrams, and more.

In the update, Electronic Toolbox Pro has been significantly altered to accommodate every kind of user. Due to the huge database of the app, Electronic Toolbox Pro has creatively sought solutions in delivering quicker updates and corrections. In Version 7.01.04, the ability to distribute and update Electronic Toolbox Pro "over-the-air" has been introduced. The databases are now updated from a high performance server that has been designated especially for this App. As a result, this allows for much bigger databases and quicker updates and corrections. With the exception of delivering any data updates, Electronic Toolbox Pro can still be used without Internet access.

"The development of Electronic Toolbox Pro has been mainly driven by our customers," admits Marcus Roskosch, owner of Creating Your App. "Since its first version in 2009, there have been hundreds of updates, which always added new tools or features users suggested or asked for. Over the years, Electronic Toolbox Pro has grown to encompass more than 70 tools that will be useful to beginners, students, hobbyists, and experts."

He continues, "To let Electronic Toolbox Pro take full advantage of iOS 7 and make it compatible to the recently announced iOS 8, we had to rewrite about 70% of the app. This has provided us with a great opportunity to incorporate many other suggestions from our users and freshen up the app's design. After seven months of development, I believe users will be very pleased with the newest version of Electronic Toolbox Pro and what it can do for them."

7 Sevens v2.0 Featured in Best New Games on the App Store - Published on 06/06/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent mobile game developer, Grumble Games is honored that Apple chose to feature 7 Sevens on the App Store, week of June 5th. 7 Sevens is a puzzle game developed exclusively for iOS7 devices. The goal of 7 Sevens is to create groups of like-numbered tiles, causing them to explode, clear from the board and score. Combos, bonuses and helpers allow users to achieve high scores in the millions. The game ends when the board is full and no more moves can be made.

Baltimore, Maryland - Independent mobile game developer, Grumble Games today is thrilled to announce that Apple chose to feature 7 Sevens on the App Store as a Best New Game and Best New Update as well as a small banner placement. 7 Sevens 2.0, is an update to the popular title developed exclusively for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices running iOS7 or higher. 7 Sevens is a tile-matching puzzle game based around the simple concept of grouping like-numbered tiles together to clear them from the board.

Unlike traditional match puzzlers the number of tiles you need to clear a group isn't set, but is determined by the number on the tile. Line 2 twos up and they explode from the board, but to clear sevens it takes 7 adjacent seven tiles. Thoughtful planning, using helpers at the right time and a bit of luck allows players to achieve massive high scores. 7 sevens is intended for casual gamers looking for something to fill a few minutes but is complex enough for hard-core puzzle fans.

While simplicity is at the heart of 7 Sevens design, the complexity quickly becomes apparent as players progress into deeper rounds of the game. Every 7 explosions that a player triggers progresses them to the next round. At the start of each round the player is awarded bonus points and 7 random tiles are dropped on the game board. The tiles dropped can help a user, for example, dropping that last seven in the perfect place to trigger a big explosion, or they can be grey blocks which are impediments that need to be cleared. Grey blocks are able to be cleared by triggering explosions next to them, which offers the perfect use for the 1 tile, which explodes on contact.

The last element of gameplay are the helpers. The tile swap has been around since version 1. It is empty until the player taps it to save a tile for later. At any point thereafter the player can swap the current tile for one that has been saved. Two new helpers have been added for users to get even higher scores. First, 'Next' a preview of the next tile that the user will be able to drop. This small change has increased strategic decisions dramatically by itself. The other new helper is 'Lift', giving users the power to reposition a tile on the top of any column. Users get 7 of them per game, so they must be used sparingly but can really turn the tide of a game and give the opportunity for much higher scores.

7 Sevens is all about getting the highest score possible (and then bragging to your friends about it), and there are three ways to receive bonus points to inflate a score. As mentioned above, every time a player reaches a new round they are awarded bonus points, which is the first way. Second, players can trigger combos by strategically placing numbered tiles and grey blocks to multiply an explosion's points by 2, 3, 4 or even more. The other benefit to triggering a combo is that it does not eat up a round marker, which is crucial for getting high scores in later rounds.

Also, boost a score by triggering 7 of a particular type of grouping. For instance, the 7th time in a game a player triggers 7 sevens they get the big 49,777 point bonus. Tip: clear the board for a 77,777 point bonus. The most dramatic way to get a high score is by increasing your point multiplier. Every time a user breaks a gray block they earn XP and each time they fill their XP bar their point multiplier increases. Break more gray blocks at once and get significantly more xp. It's just one more subtle strategy in the game. The best thing about these bonus scenarios is that the users don't even have to think about them if they're interested in a casual, less strategic experience. They'll just be happy to see bonuses popping up on the screen.

7 Sevens v2 remodels the game modes included. There are two levels of difficulty, Normal and Hardcore and three different modes in each. Classic is the game that fans know and love, which has been included since version 1. Classic is an endless experience that ends when the board is filled. Time Attack gives users 7 minutes to get the highest score possible, but there's an opportunity to add time to the clock by breaking clock blocks. Break more at once and earn much more time. The final mode is Sequence mode, intended for users that want to create the perfect strategy and go after the highest score possible. In Sequence the tile distribution is the same every time.

Although no tutorial is necessary for a player to pick up 7 Sevens and begin playing a set of "How to Play" instructions have been included. There is also a detailed Stats page that tracks everything a player does including their top 10 high scores of all time, with date and time to track how long ago it was that they got that ridiculously high score. At the end of every game players have the option of sharing their high score on Facebook, Twitter, by text or through email.

As a game is being played there is a live score stream at the bottom of the screen which is updated with scores from other players around the world from that day. The scores shown are skewed to friends of the player, but the score could be from anyone that has completed a game that day. This feature is not
available on iPhone4 due to screen size restrictions.

Features:
* Simple mechanics
* Strategic gameplay
* Beautiful Design
* Live Score Stream
* Integrated Social Sharing
* Game Center Challenges
* Optimized for iOS7
* Developed using Sprite Kit

"We are so happy with the incredible opportunity to be featured by Apple. It's a great honor and we're very proud of the game." said Mike Spotten, founder and CEO of Grumble Games. "This version wouldn't exist without our passionate users," he went on to say. "Based on their feedback we've adjusted the end game to be more fair, added in helpers and enhanced the overall experience. We're excited about these new details and have plans for even more enhancements in the coming months that I believe users will be blown away by."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* This app is optimized for iPhone 5
* 5.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
7 Sevens 2.0 is $.99 for a limited time and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

London, United Kingdom - Application Systems and bumblebee announce the launch of GhostControl Inc. 2.0 - our turn based strategy game - for Mac/PC/Linux and available on Steam. Shipping on Steam today, version 2.0 has many improvements and new features our backers and supports requested. Encouraged by over 10,000 supporters on Steam and feedback from 1,000's of early adopters and the press alike we've decided to improve the product with loads of features.

Manage a team of ghosthunters and free London from paranormal terror in turn-based battles. Develop your own strategy and build your business well. Let's be honest - a ghost in your house can be a real pest. For centuries we have accepted hauntings as unexplained phenomena which we can do little to stop. Side affects of living in a haunted home can include sleepless nights, headaches, smog everywhere and in some cases even physical damage in the house. Enough is enough, with your help we intend to put an end to these paranormal pests. Build, manage and develop your own team of talented ghost hunters.

With the income from your team's work you can equip them with some amazing gadgets, but manage your budget with care not everything is as useful as it may appear. Hunt your customers ghosts down - property damage should be kept to a minimum. Take on the ghosts, follow the map, take in the lovely sites and stunning landmarks.

Features :
* True, challenging turn-based strategy gameplay
* Loads of ghost hunting with various equipment
* Team management and strategic investment decisions
* AI driven competing teams
* A London city map with famous landmarks
* Tons of humour in text messages and game action
* Original game music soundtrack

Background information:
The developers of GhostControl Inc. are big fans of classic games such as GhostBusters, the original XCOM, Theme Hospital and FTL.In it's classic pixel art retro style the game comes with outstanding original graphics and a funny story line.

What's new?
Out of the nearly 50 great improvements in GhostControl Inc. 2.0 the most important are:
* Research - Have your scientists build bigger guns and traps in the funky new lab. No more selling the ol' stuff - pimp it out

* All new inventory-system - All-new, improved, optimized, enhanced, super-fancy inventory window

* Personality - Rename all your ghosthunters - anytime! Build up your dream team of friends, colleagues or your favourite football team (and have 'em run away from a bunch of spooks like scaredy-pants)

* Spookipedia - This nifty database holds all your information from ghostscans: Strengths and weaknesses of ghosts, a classy description and a full size pixel-perfect depiction make this comprehensive compendium a ghosthunter's must-have

* Equipment Guide - Say hello to the inventory guide, listing all the available traps, sensors, guns and other equipment. See what's available in store, compare to your current stuff and see what to save up for

* Nip and Tuck - Improved visuals everywhere - funky ghostshines, wicked walking hunters inside your HQ, animated citymap and much more

* Training - No more sittin' around - have those couch-potatoes do some weightlifting whilst their colleagues are out doing the job

* Achievement list - GhostControl Inc. already comes with almost 60 freakin' achievements to gain - in version 2.0 you'll not only get a precise listing of those goals, they will be booked straight into your Steam-account

* STEAM - Long awaited, finally here: An impressive Steamversion of GhostControl Inc. including all the cool stuff: Tradingcards, Achievements, Profilebackdrops, you name it

Independent Art Photography Magazine VIEW Releases Latest Issue - Published on 06/06/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The ninth issue of VIEW Magazine is now available. Showcasing photography from around the world, VIEW Magazine is an independent, original art-photography magazine available on Newsstand for iOS devices. The magazine is free to subscribe to or to download single issues. The ninth issue features art from Philippe Fragniere, Eliot Dudik, William LeGoullon, Gigi Cifali and more. VIEW Magazine is published quarterly by FusionLab, a mobile app design firm based in New York City and the Hudson Valley.

New York, New York - The ninth issue of VIEW Magazine is now available for free on Apple's Newsstand for iPad/iPhone. Showcasing photography from around the world, VIEW Magazine is an independent, original art-photography magazine available for iOS devices. The magazine is free to subscribe to or to download single issues. VIEW Magazine is published every quarter by FusionLab, a mobile app design firm based in New York City and the Hudson Valley.

For issue 9 we brought together some great photographers, from William LeGoullon's studio shots of found items in the Arizona desert (see cover); Aaron Owens' beautiful array of publicly archived aerial photography of industrial sites ; Philippe Fragniere's impossibly dreamy Swiss snowscapes; Gigi Cifali's Vesuvian landscapes perfectly framed within round, gilded frames; to a selection from Eliot Dudik's monograph, Road Ends in Water, of large-format works documenting the quickly vanishing "lowcountry" of South Carolina. Ten photographers in total, each committed to their craft and passion.

"When I begin to review work for the next issue of VIEW, I let my eyes lead me around (usually the internet) and see what comes my way. Sometimes, when I can manage to keep my mind open, the results can be quite surprising and I find that I select work that perhaps a few months before I would not have necessarily selected. It's in this issue then that I think we have achieved such a wide selection that it is a testimony to the power photography can have on us to open (or change) our minds." - Alon Koppel, Editor in Chief.

* Dispatches from the Confluence - Aaron Owens
* (Un)Intended Targets - William LeGoullon

* Mutated Landscape - Charles Bouchaib
