Santa Cruz, California - Surf City Apps has released an important upgrade to its hugely successful suite of hypnosis apps for iOS, including Lose Weight, Enjoy Exercise, Sleep Well, and End Anxiety. Each app has been meticulously redesigned with a gorgeous new look, improved sound and audio options, as well as tons of welcome additions based on user feedback. The entire suite of hypnosis apps is free to download on the iTunes App Store, Google Play, and Amazon App Store.

"Reaching 2 million downloads in such a short time was amazing," says CJ de Heer, Surf City Apps lead developer. "But it's the success stories we get every day that really inspire us. It's gratifying to hear from real people who are finding our hypnosis apps helpful and transformative in their own lives."

The hypnosis scripts are all read by a certified clinical hypnotherapist and hypnotherapy instructor for maximum effectiveness. Each app focuses on a unique trouble spot or opportunity for self-improvement, including losing weight, sleeping better, or helping to reduce anxiety. More apps are on the way for additional self-help genres.

"The reason people love our hypnosis apps is that they are free to download and, more importantly, they work," says de Heer. "These apps are professionally produced by experts in the field, and that shows in the results listeners are raving about in the apps' reviews."

In addition to an attractive new look, version 2.0 of each hypnosis app features useful new audio settings. The audio can now repeat up to three times or loop indefinitely, while background sounds continue for up to one hour after the voice session completes. New, premium background sounds are also available to add variety and relaxation to any hypnosis session.

The updated hypnosis apps also include helpful support articles for users to get the most out of hypnosis as well as a streamlined feedback system. Anyone can post suggestions for new hypnosis topics and vote on favorites for future apps. Users can now "gift" the app to friends who might benefit from specific hypnosis sessions.

Funky Bots Named #1 Best New Kids App in US, Canada, China and Australia - Published on 09/16/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FB LLC today announces that its innovative new kids app Funky Bots, was just chosen by Apple the #1 Best New Kids App in the US, Canada, China, Australia and Mexico! Funky Bots allows players to create their own space robot dances and set them to swipes and taps. Funky Bots creator Rosa Mei developed the app around the concept of open-ended play for kids. With this innovative new app, kids can explore the cool Funky Bots universe and play with dancing robots who know how to groove.

Antwerpen, Belgium - Funky Bots, an innovative new kids app that allows players to create their own space robot dances and set them to swipes and taps was just chosen by Apple the #1 Best New Kids App in the US, Canada, China, Australia and Mexico. Funky Bots creator Rosa Mei developed the app around the concept of open-ended play for kids. One year ago, Mei, a professional choreographer, had never even used an app, but was inspired to make apps for her toddler twins to help them "feel the beat and dance forever." The Funky Bots are part of an interactive animated music video featuring eight original tracks by Ethan Beatz and French beatboxer Teddy Guilbaud. Perfect for all ages, the app lets kids play with dancing bots and create their own cool robot dances.

With this innovative new app, kids can explore the cool Funky Bots universe and play with dancing robots who know how to groove. They create their own dance moves for Kamky, Tekzilla, Uncle G and other members of the Funky Bots crew and set them to swipes and taps. They choose the perfect soundtrack to match their dances, all the while keeping it fresh and funky.

After releasing the app late August, Mei was stunned to see her Funky Bots at the top of the iTunes store two weeks later as the #1 Best New Kids App in the United States. "I was shocked and ecstatic. I ran to the living room and my toddler son started stomping his feet and jumping up and down to imitate me." Mei's company (also called Funky Bots) is an indie development firm of one person.

"My office is a closet in our apartment in Prague that I converted into a tiny Dilbert cubicle. Maya, the programmer I work with, lives in Bulgaria. We've never even met in real life. We just send send each lots of files and Skype a lot, and now we've made the a top kids app."

In fact, the dynamic duo, already had success with their first collaboration BoomKLAKers, a toddler app that was chosen as Best New App in 108 countries. "We thought we beat the odds with BoomKLAKers and wanted to make something that was even better and gave kids more room to create and make their own dances. I'm always amazed at how kids have an innate ability to think out of the box. I think this is often because they don't even realize that the box exists, so there's no limit to the quirkiness of their creations."

Choreographer Rosa Mei created the app and based all the eight members of the Funky Bots crew (cartoon space robots) on her real life dance company and family. "All the FB characters really are family to me. The guys in my dance company - poppers, bboys, beatboxers and rappers - have performed with me all over the world for 10 years now. Those are the characters Uncle G, Kamky, Champion and Boom Chak. They are my crazy bros. Tycho and Tekzilla are my twins who are now almost 2. My husband was a competitive skateboarder as a kid so I named his bot Thrasher in honor of the epic skate magazine. And I am Mz. Erratik because I am nothing but..."

Mei wanted to create an app with open-ended play. "I really hope the kids who play with Funky Bots will make up wild, crazy dances for every swipe and tap. They can make robot heads orbit around the body. The bots can move tai chi slow or spaz out and freak the beat. There are endless possibilities for play, and the kids can get so much effect by just rotating an arm angle, changing the movement of the hips or varying the tempo of the movements. They can also play with the monitors on the spaceships and make rockets fly. I hope kids have a lot of fun with this app."

Funky Bots features eight original sound tracks by French beatboxer Teddy Guildbaud and Congolese sound producer Ethan Beatz. The music is not the typical stuff you find in kids apps. The first track "Galactic Funk" for example, is a funkstyle remix of the kids classic "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star." Says Mei, "Kids like being cool and hip. Hip and funny is key."

As the Funky Bots hop from planet to planet, players can watch Uncle G practice his moves on his spaceship then zoom in the monitor to see Mz. Erratik dancing at the shopping mall in outer space. Tapping and swiping the screen triggers new robots dances in a cool, intergalactic playground.

Features:
* Cool, funky robots dancing in outer space
* A dance editor that lets you create your own dances for all the Funky Bots and set them to swipes and taps
* 8 original soundtracks featuring cool funk style music, beatbox, flute and sax
* Perfect for kids of all ages: toddlers can play with dancing robots and older kids can create new dances, endless possibilities
* No third party ads or in-app purchases

Funky Bots is the second app by Rosa Mei, whose goal is to create a suite of apps that show kids how to "feel the beat and dance forever." Their first app BoomKLAKers, made for toddlers, was featured in the App Store as Best New App in 108 countries and also went to #1 in 23 countries.

Aqua Data Studio 15 With New Visual Analytics and Visual Query Builder - Published on 09/16/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

California based AquaFold, Inc. today announces Aqua Data Studio 15, a major upgrade to its universal database query and management software, with new features to create visualizations that illuminate your underlying data. Aqua Data Studio 15 can now turn any query into visuals that are immensely useful. In just a few clicks, it can combine pivot tables, charts, graphs, and other visualizations into interactive dashboards and workbooks, which can then be shared with colleagues and customers.

Sunnyvale, California - AquaFold, Inc. today is proud to announce the release of Aqua Data Studio 15, a major upgrade to its universal database query and management software, with new features to create visualizations that illuminate your underlying data. In just a few clicks, Aqua Data Studio 15 can now combine pivot tables, charts, graphs, and other visualizations into interactive dashboards and workbooks, which can then be shared with colleagues and customers.

"Instinctively we make more thoughtful observations about large amounts of data when we see it visually as graphs, charts, and trends," explains AquaFold's CEO, Niels Gron. "Aqua Data Studio 15 turns any query into visuals that are immensely useful. You can share data in a way that is instantly accessible and allows others to navigate and interact with it freely."

Bringing data to life in Aqua Data Studio has never been simpler. Users drag and drop elements to combine and pivot datasets into visual representations, from pie graphs to trend lines. Even different types of charts can be combined to display data individually or merged into a single graph. Additional calculations and filters, including moving averages or running totals, can be added instantly to gain greater insight.

"The possibilities to create and share compelling visualizations and dashboards in Aqua Data Studio 15 is limitless," notes Gron. "You can analyze and share big data faster and more effectively than ever, which leads to better collaboration and smarter decision-making."

Along with Aqua Data Studio's visualization improvements, the completely redesigned Visual Query Builder is more powerful and easier to use than ever. Users can now generate complex queries visually by dragging and dropping without ever typing a SQL statement. New to this version is a better way to visualize table unions, and support for subqueries. The main query appears in its own tab, while unions and subqueries are built in additional tabs to keep complex queries more organized.

Also improved in version 15 is Bulk Import of data. Multi-megabyte files with hundreds of thousands of rows now take seconds instead of minutes to import.

"The enhanced speeds are remarkable," says Gron. "Vertica imports of 100,000 rows that took 70 minutes before now take just 49 seconds. Netezza imports that took 65 minutes now take less than 4 minutes."

Aqua Data Studio 15 has also gained the ability to connect, query, and generate database-style results from Microsoft Excel files, making one of the most frequently used file formats on the planet even more useful.

Support has been added for Amazon Redshift and the NewSQL relational database VoltDB. Hive support is much improved with drivers for MapR, Cloudera, and Hortonworks, support for HiveServer 2 and legacy support for HiveServer 1, as well as greater security with Kerberos authentication. Database support has also been upgraded to include Vertica 7, DB2 10.5, MongoDB 2.6, and more.

Pricing and Availability:
Aqua Data Studio 15 is localized into 21 languages and works with Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris, and the Java Platform. It is available for immediate download from AquaFold online. A complete list of new features and enhancements is available. The cost of a single-user commercial license for Aqua Data Studio 15 remains $499.00 (USD). Current license holders with expired subscriptions can renew their subscriptions for $174.65, just 35% of the new license price.

Tequila Games announces Earthcore: Shattered Elements - Published on 09/16/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Tequila Games today announced Earthcore: Shattered Elements, its forthcoming digital collectible card game for iOS devices. Players collect cards, construct their decks and take control of fire, water and nature Elements to defeat their opponents in epic duels. Promising to bring a completely new gameplay experience to the popular collectible card game (CCG) genre, Earthcore: Shattered Elements introduces a unique new gameplay feature called Card Crafting. The game is expected on Q1 2015.

Wroclaw, Poland - Veteran mobile game developer, Tequila Games today announced Earthcore: Shattered Elements, its forthcoming digital collectible card game on iOS for iPad and iPhone. Promising to bring a completely new gameplay experience to the popular collectible card game (CCG) genre, Earthcore: Shattered Elements introduces a unique new gameplay feature called 'Card Crafting'. Utilising cards in their collection, players will have the ability to fuse cards together and create brand new, powerful ones, thereby adding over 500,000 strategic gameplay possibilities to their deck.

Earthcore: Shattered Element's gameplay further refreshes the genre through its 'Elemental' battle system. Based on the universally familiar 'rock, paper, scissors' mechanic, players collect cards, construct their decks and take control of fire, water and nature Elements to defeat their opponents in epic duels.

As well as the Elemental battle system, a new risk-based gameplay mechanic further injects tension and strategic possibilities into Earthcore: Shattered Elements by assigning a 'risk' value to each card. The more special skills a card possesses, the higher its risk value and the higher the loss caused to the player if they are defeated, meaning that players must now gamble which cards to use on each turn. Earthcore: Shattered Element's unique combination of Elemental battle system and risk-based gameplay replaces the mechanics of armor, hit points and mana that are familiar to many CCG players, offering them entirely new strategies and ways to play.

"Following on from our history of creating successful casual games, Earthcore: Shattered Elements represents a big step forward and a very significant investment for Tequila Games. We are targeting both mid and hardcore players with a AAA title in a genre our team knows and loves" said Lukas Deszczulka, CEO, Tequila Games. "We're currently working with some very experienced tabletop game design experts to innovate the CCG genre and we've invested heavily in the single player story-driven campaign which is often neglected in games of this type. We're sure that both new and experienced players alike will find Earthcore:Shattered Elements very different to anything that they've played before."

Created for novice and seasoned players alike, Earthcore: Shattered Elements features a richly detailed, story-driven, single player campaign as well as a deep multiplayer mode for player vs player duels, leagues and championships. Tequila Games intends to keep the game regularly updated with new monthly 'chapter' updates to the single-player campaign as well as releasing new cards and skills on regular basis. More features will be announced soon.

Earthcore: Shattered Elements is expected on Q1 2015, but more information on the launch will be released later this year via the official website.

Quotely app launch - Never lose another quotable moment with your kids - Published on 09/16/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BraveBit App Studio, in partnership with Atomic Robot and Firelight Apps, today release Quotely 1.0.1, a free lifestyle app for iOS. Quotely makes it easy for parents to capture funny quotes and conversations from their kids, and share them with friends. Besides saving cute one-liners, Quotely is also ideal for retelling entire stories and conversations. Parents with younger kids love using Quotely, and parents whose kids are already grown lament that they wish it had been around years ago!

Wyoming, Michigan - BraveBit App Studio, in partnership with Atomic Robot and Firelight Apps, today is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of Quotely 1.0.1, a free lifestyle app developed for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Quotely makes it easy for parents to capture funny quotes and conversations from their kids, and share them with friends.

Kids say the darndest things every day, and parents often feel like they should be doing something to remember these quotable moments. It's also a shame that family members live so far away that they often miss out on these quotes and conversations from their grandkids, nieces and nephews.

Many parents type out these quotes in Excel spreadsheets or Google Docs, but that's not very fun, and certainly not easy to share. Others try writing quotes on Facebook or Twitter, but they quickly get buried and forgotten, so it's nearly impossible to organize or retrieve them later on. The madness has to stop! So in partnership with Atomic Robot and Firelight Apps, BraveBit App Studio set out to build Quotely, an app that helps parents capture these quotes in fun little cards that are easy to personalize, organize, and share.

Most of the time children say funny things in response to something they see or hear around them. The context surrounding the quote is just as important as the quote itself, so Quotely allows users to set the stage with a large photo or narration text. Quotely can also be used to capture a back-and-forth conversation that happened between 2 or more people.

Key Features:
* Create beautiful quote cards and personalize them with photos, fonts, and pretty colors
* Organize quote cards with dates, filters, tags, and personal notes
* Share quote cards via Text Message, Email, Social Media, and even printable postcards
* Relive the moments again by scrolling through a timeline of cards for each child

"Before setting out to build Quotely we wanted to make sure it was something that parents really needed," explained Scott Ruth, owner of BraveBit App Studio. "So we called, emailed, and tweeted with several moms and dads, including many prominent "mommy bloggers", to get their feedback. They unanimously agreed that Quotely was a timely app idea, and some who had older kids only wished something like this existed years ago."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 7.2 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Quotely 1.0.1 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Lifestyle category.

Quotely is the 4th self-published app by BraveBit, in partnership with Atomic Robot and Firelight Apps as well. Our team has many years of combined experience in the app marketplace, primarily building consumer family-friendly apps for iOS and Android. Our mission is to help moms and dads capture those hilarious, heartwarming, and sometimes embarrassing things their kids say, and easily share those moments with their loved ones. This includes many optimizations in the future, and big features surrounding social sharing and printing of quote cards. All Material and Software (C) Copyright 2011-2014 BraveBit, LLC.

Vampire Tribunals takes a Supernatural Bite out of iOS - Published on 09/16/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Mobile video game publisher, Clazz Games, and developer Raincrow Studios, today announce Vampire Tribunals 1.0.1, their new game title for iOS devices. Bite your way through thousands of real-world victims on your iPhone using in-phone navigation to locate your next opponent in a quest to become the world's most dominant blood sucker. Featuring mobile multi-player combat, Vampire Tribunals is a supernatural experience where vampire fantasies are no longer dreams, they are real.

New York, New York - Clazz Games, a mobile video game publisher, and developer Raincrow Studios announced today the launch of Vampire Tribunals for iOS. Featuring mobile multi-player combat, Vampire Tribunals is a supernatural experience where vampire fantasies are no longer dreams, they are real.

Like "Google's" popular "Ingress", Vampire Tribunals is tailored to take advantage of the geo-location features of smart phones. But instead of monuments and portals, Vampire Tribunals reveals the real world to be filled with vampires and demons living among us. Stay in your neighborhood, zoom out to see the playing field or transport your vampire through the in-game Janus Mirror to attack enemy players all over the world. Players will bite their way through thousands of victims on their iPhone using in-phone navigation as they locate their next prey, with the goal of becoming the world's most dominant blood-sucking vampire.

In Vampire Tribunals you take the role of an awakened half human, half vampire species knows as damphyr, with the ability to sense demonic vampires that traffic among mankind. Use strategy and stealth to gain power by attacking demons around you or enter the mystical in-game portal known as the Janus Mirror to transport anywhere on the globe to challenge other real world iOS players while seeking out rewards and building your domain.

Players can quickly build a dark union of damphyr allies, establishing a powerful "House" that combines their collective powers to combat oncoming attacks. Use the Deck of Days to overcome your enemies by casting a variety of spells that can cloak you for stealth attacks, rebuff oncoming assailants, and summon protective demons. Dynamic Quests and World Events have players exploring beyond their local regions into the deep history of the world's labyrinthine vampire cultures. Travel around the world through the Janus Mirror to complete Quests, from Istanbul to the coasts of California to old Appalachia, meeting mythic creatures like Creatrix, a vampire with the power to awaken thousands of damphyr and shift the balance of power among all vampire-kind. Another Quest sends players to the enticing, blue-green waters of Santorini, a Greek island notoriously overrun by ghoulish undead creatures named "Lakas". Crush three of these insidious demonic creatures to lift an ancient curse and
be rewarded handsomely with in-game currency.

Vampire Tribunals is structured in a series of seasonal tournaments - Tribunals - with separate scoreboards for local and worldwide players. Each Tribunal will conclude with special World Events for players to accelerate their dominance level, including Sleepers of the Mound, where bold damphyr search Scandinavia for the green witch lights that mark where the Draugur rest and the Blood of Caligula, where damphyr converge on the Seven Hills of Rome to attempt raising the vengeful spirit of Julia Drusilla, the murdered daughter of Caligula. Successfully complete these World Events to boost your level through receiving experience points and powerful items, all in preparation for the Tribunal's final event known as The Reaping. Taking place during the last two weeks of a Tribunal, The Reaping is a time for players to battle for supremacy and receive their final Tribunal ranking.

Vampire Tribunals features:

Deep Social Integration:
* Build your own dark community by creating a powerful House, the more vampires in the House the faster you will gain power.
* Whisper or Shout to other players in-game and experiences on Facebook and Twitter.
* Watch the News'Feed' for fertile feeding grounds and other damphyr activities.

Original Story:
* Developer Raincrow Studios has written an imaginative vampire narrative where you'll meet key story figures during quests such as Inness St. Croix (a Patroness), Mary Rowland (the damphyr awakener), the Nine Killer, and the Prince of Merchants.

Events & Quests:
* The phases of the moon and seasons affect gameplay.
* If your faction is in alignment with the current moon then your whole House will benefit from boosted stats.
