Shooty Ship 1.11 for iOS Devices - Retro Shooting Action in Outer Space - Published on 10/14/15
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ElmerApps announces Shooty Ship 1.11, an important update to their retro arcade game for iOS devices. In Shooty Ship, players will go back to the future, as they shoot down enemy combatants and grab power-ups to help them attack the enemy space outpost. But beware! The outpost is heavily protected by flying saucers, tracking drones, missile launchers, and other defenders along the way. The game's retro arcade action makes it fun for all ages. Version 1.11 offers minor bug fixes.
Coral Springs, Florida - ElmerApps today is proud to announce the release of Shooty Ship 1.11, an important update to their retro arcade game app for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. In Shooty Ship, players go back to the future in this exciting return to the thrilling arcade games of the past. The mission: Attack the enemy space outpost on Saturn's moon of Titan. But beware, the outpost is heavily protected by flying saucers, tracking drones, guard towers, missile launchers and ghost ships.
Shooty Ship offers a familiar, yet fresh challenge, and brings back the most exciting aspects of classic video game shooters to iOS gamers of all ages. Younger players will find themselves challenged by the fast moving action. Older players will be transported back to the arcade game-playing days of their youth, as they fed "just one more quarter" into the Defender video game machine to try to set the high score. All players will enjoy the fast moving action and exciting sound effects.
"I must admit, I have always been a fan of the classic video games from the 1980's and 1990's," says ElmerApps founder Robert Mandelbaum. "When I began developing Shooty Ship, my goal was to bring that classic, 'Let me play just one more time' excitement to today's mobile game-playing public. I believe I've accomplished that. By combining the best of classic video games, with the power of today's mobile devices, I've created an extremely addictive game that will have players coming back for 'just one more game!'"
Features:
* Fast moving retro arcade action
* Younger players will enjoy the fast moving action
* Older players will enjoy the classic Defender-like gameplay
* Game Center integration tracks achievements
* Power-ups and shields help defend the ship
* Arcade Mode and Mission Mode both offer exciting action
Shooty Ship challenges players with two exciting modes. Arcade Mode allows players to go for the highest score, by dodging enemy fire and shooting everything in sight. Mission Mode adds exciting achievement-based action in which the pilots must fly missions in order to earn military rankings. Either mode will keep players in a frenzy, as they attempt to shoot enemy combatants while dodging a barrage of oncoming missiles and bombs.
Shooty Ship isn't all just slide and shoot, as players will find plenty of power-ups to help them fight their way through wave after wave of enemy fire as they fight to destroy the enemy's space outpost. Players can grab shields to protect their ship from enemy fire, as well as power up with triple laser fire to blast multiple enemies at once. Make sure to grab the power-ups when they're available, as there might not be a chance to pick them up them later!
Shooty Ship's Game Center integration offers players the chance to post their scores and achievements for everyone to see. Skilled players can set the highest score to sit atop the scoreboard, or earn military rankings to post in Game Center. Players can also brag about their scores, and challenge friends and family via Shooty Ship's Facebook and Twitter integration. Version 1.11 of the game fixes a number of minor bugs.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 8.1 or later
* Universal Application
* 5.6 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Shooty Ship 1.11 is free, and is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. In-app purchases to enhance the player's ship with shields and enhanced laser firing are available from $0.99 to $2.99 USD (or equivalent amounts in other currencies).

Having studied the secrets of the ancient Maya at DIGAHOLE, Professor Beagles finds himself captured by an unexpected arch villain - the nasty Adelbert Adler and it is up to me rescue him.
Also, Along the way there is some simple and fun, but also challenging gameplay that will introduce replay value like we all used to enjoy with old school games in our living room in front of our TV sets, only this time we can enjoy it anywhere we want. This will give the audience some great trips to work and forget-to-get-off-the-toilet intense moments.

Children etch letters on a frosted glass using a snowflake or munch letters out of leaves with a caterpillar. Initially, all that's required is following an outline. Next, kids attempt to stay within the lines. Finally, users must complete the strokes in the correct order. The structured trials allow children to operate the app with minimal guidance from parents.
Yum-Yum Letters includes a significant degree of customization beyond the themed writing surfaces. Parents and teachers can use a passcode protected section to specify HWT or ZB style fonts, ABC or recommended order, number of trials needed for mastery and time between verbal praise. There's an EASY mode for younger children and those with special needs to learn letters before they are ready to write independently.
What truly sets the new app apart from other handwriting instruction apps and programs is its Smart practice feature. When in recommended mode, the app tracks progress and automatically reorders the next letters to learn based on current proficiency. If a child evidences strong control on straight lines but struggles with curved letters like B and R, the app notes this and assigns practice accordingly. Parents can at any time view progress reports that show number of attempts, mistakes and whether a letter is mastered.
Initially, the app will only include instruction for capital letters. Planned updates will add lowercase letters, numbers and basic sight words to the mix. Staggering the content release into two phases keeps the material fresh and gives kids a chance master uppercase printing before moving on to smaller letters which often prove more difficult for kids to distinguish.
Svetlana Korneliuk, representative of KinderMATICA and a consultant on the project, explained, "Traditional handwriting instruction is spread out over the course of an entire school year. Since preschool apps have a short shelf life and kids constantly want something new, we made a conscious decision to satisfy that need. The update will offer more characters and additional mini-games so it will appear to be a brand new app."

Children's app - Lucy & Pogo - Why a Cat wants to be a Dog - Published on 10/14/15
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Berlin app studio Catsndogz announces Lucy & Pogo 1.1 for iOS, an educational and fun app for children from 3 to 7 years of age. Kids help Lucy find her way around the new dog world over the course of 13 chapters, and well as through mini-games developed for the story. In playful lessons, not only spelling, music and drawing with numbers will be practiced, but also values such as tolerance, empathy and the desire for knowledge are conveyed.
Berlin, Germany - catsndogz studio turns the popular children's "The cat that wagged its tail" into an educational and fun app for children from 3 to 7 years of age. "School is only for dogs? Then I'll just be a dog!" figures Lucy the cat. She so much wants to go to school together with the neighbour's dog Pogo, that she disguises herself and dresses up as the new classmate Rocky. Users help the protagonist find her way around the new dog world over the course of 13 chapters, and through the mini-games developed for the story. In playful lessons, not only spelling, music and drawing with numbers will be practiced, but also values such as tolerance empathy and the desire for knowledge are conveyed.
In addition to practicing spelling, music and drawing with numbers, values such as tolerance, empathy and desire for knowledge are conveyed.
Characteristic features of the app include the collaged and hand-painted illustrations made of different materials, the sound design completely generated by voices, and the specially composed and recorded live music. The creators aim was to put together a warm, tactile look and a lively reading experience.
"We want to take digital storytelling for children a step further" said Tim Gunther, founder of catsndogz. "Lucy and Pogo is intended to be much more than just an interactive book: The blend of storytelling, playing and learning is meant to be both fun and informative at the same time." After this first product, Catsndogz plans to continue focusing on high quality and educationally valuable content when it comes to future interactive projects in the mobile area.
"Lucy & Pogo" is a collaboration of award-winning artists from the field of animation, illustration and film. The app's development was funded as part of the program for innovative audiovisual content by Medienboard Berlin Brandenburg.
"We are filmmakers, parents, animators, with children in mind," continued Gunther. "We do whatever fascinates us, we animate, film or program whatever is worth it, worth spending our and our little users precious time with. We do our own ideas from scratch, or we adapt books or transform long gone jewels to new life in a new surrounding. Like so many parents, we hid our iPad from our children and were worried they would eventually become unsocial computernerds if they touch it, until we found out, what is possible with those things. Of course we still prefer if they play analogue from time to time, but well, it's 2015. Since out of those bizillions of APPs already out there, we thought there is still room for something nice, haptic and handmade, we thought we should give it a try."
Language Support:
* German, English, French, Spanish and Polish
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 336 MB

The Sunn Circadian Lighting App for HomeKit Brings Sunlight Indoors - Published on 10/14/15
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Zunn Labs, Inc. today announce the Sunn Circadian Lighting app for iOS and Android devices. Sunn automatically tunes the color and brightness of smart lights to be in sync with cycle of sunlight outside, making it easier to fall asleep at night, wake up in the morning and stay alert during the day. Sunn's "biological clock" algorithms adjust for any location, time of year and time of day. The app works with Philips Hue, LIFX and Apple HomeKit-enabled smart lights.
Chicago, Illinois - Sunn, a human centered internet of things company, has launched the Sunn Circadian Lighting app which helps people improve their sleep at night and alertness during the day by keeping the body's "biological clock," or 24-hour cycle (circadian rhythm), in sync with the natural cycle of lighting we evolved for. Specifically, the Sunn app promotes circadian rhythm alignment by automatically tuning the color and brightness of indoor lighting to be in sync with sunlight outside during the day and warm firelight at night.
Sunn's proprietary "biological clock" algorithms control for any location, time of year and time of day. The Sunn app works with Philips Hue, LIFX, and Apple HomeKit - enabled smart lights. The Sunn app is free for a limited time and available worldwide in the App Store.
"We believe everyone deserves healthy and comfortable lighting. From the home to the small office, Sunn provides the right dose of light at the right time. The app is sleek, easy to use, and works with tons of lighting brands." - John, Chief Executive Officer and Cofounder of Sunn
"Sunn is an app that makes your lights tell time. It connects your smart lighting to the natural rhythm of daylight outside and provides gentle cues to signal the time of day to your body, helping you to make the most of your day and prepare for rest at night."
- Kelton, Chief Design Research Officer and Cofounder of Sunn
The Sunn Lighting Experience:
The Sunn app invigorates the indoors with comfortable bioactive lighting for the home or small office. In the morning, Sunn makes smart lights rise with the sun, gradually brightening and changing color to foster wakefulness and assist the body's natural suppression of melatonin. During the day, the lights track the sun and slowly become cooler to promote alertness. As the day winds down, the lights become warmer and bring the setting sun indoors. At night, the Sunn app slowly adjusts the lights to emanate the calming glow of firelight, a biological indicator that prepares the body for rest and promotes the body's nighttime production of melatonin.

* Easier to wake up in the morning

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Zunn Labs, Inc. today announce the Sunn Circadian Lighting app for iOS and Android devices. Sunn automatically tunes the color and brightness of smart lights to be in sync with cycle of sunlight outside, making it easier to fall asleep at night, wake up in the morning and stay alert during the day.

Chicago, Illinois - Sunn, a human centered internet of things company, has launched the Sunn Circadian Lighting app which helps people improve their sleep at night and alertness during the day by keeping the body's "biological clock," or 24-hour cycle (circadian rhythm), in sync with the natural cycle of lighting we evolved for. Specifically, the Sunn app promotes circadian rhythm alignment by automatically tuning the color and brightness of indoor lighting to be in sync with sunlight outside during the day and warm firelight at night.

San Dimas, California - MCE Technologies (MCE) today announced it is shipping the highest capacity flash storage upgrade solution for the 13" and 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display (Mid 2012 - Early 2013). The MCE 1TB and 500GB Flash Drive Upgrade Kits include a specially designed USB 3.0 enclosure to house the original flash drive to facilitate easy data transfer, all necessary tools to perform the installation, an illustrated installation guide, and drive cloning software.

"We're excited to bring to market the first true 1TB flash storage upgrade kit for the first generation of MacBook Pro with Retina Display machines," stated Arnold Ramirez, president of MCE. "Users with the standard configuration of 128GB or 256GB of storage quickly encountered how minimal that amount of storage is in this day and age and are weary of lugging around external drives. Our 1TB and 500GB internal flash upgrade kits are a perfect solution to that problem."
The MCE 1TB and 500GB Flash Storage Upgrade Kits for 13" and 15" MacBook Pro (Mid 2012 through Early 2013) installs in place of the existing flash drive in those machines. They are based on the SATA-III architecture in those machines and can transfer data at speeds of up to 550MB/sec when reading, and 520MB/sec when writing.
