San Diego, California - Sofaking Interactive has announced that its game WordHeist(TM), is now available in the Apple Apps Store. WordHeist(TM), the newest word game to hit the mobile market, pits players against each other, creating words in a race against time. In a unique twist, players may simultaneously steal opponents' words, and with it, their points. By combining word skills and reflexes, WordHeist(TM) hopes to bring a fresh challenge for the millions of word game enthusiasts who have made games like Scramble with Friends, Words with Friends, and Scrabble household names.

WordHeist(TM), created by Sofaking Interactive, has three gameplay modes: Live, Turn-based, and Practice. Live mode allows players to face off against up to three other people in a lightning round. Turn-based mode lets players create and steal words in stages. In Practice mode, players can refine their skills in preparation for their next match.

WordHeist(TM) features a unique, layered ranking system, assessing the player's skill level after each individual game. Users begin as petty thieves and work their way up through the ranks to achieve Notorious Bank Robber status.

"Word games are always fun and challenging, but it's time for something more exciting. We wanted to inject an adrenaline rush into our games, so we introduced sneak attacks, letting them not only win points but simply steal them," says creator Kelvin Pan.

WordHeist(TM) is based on a game Pan played with his college friends at the University of Michigan. After founding his company in 2013, he decided it was time to take his favorite game digital. "I can't count the number of nights we stayed up in the dorms at Michigan playing this game. I know from many late nights myself how addictive it can be, and we look forward to sharing it with players everywhere."

MoodByWords App Expresses Your Mood Better Than Pictures - Published on 12/24/14

Toronto based MoodByWords has announced the availability of its iOS app for the iPhone and iPad. The app allows people to express their moods by choosing the perfect quotes matching their moods, and then share them.

But despite a picture being worth a thousand words, these images contain little context. But by choosing just the right quote, a person is better able explain the mood they're in and why they're in it.

Developed by two guys in Toronto, MoodByWords is a simple, intuitive and free app that allows people to express their moods by choosing the perfect quotes matching their moods, and then share them with a twist.

Selfie X brings the best of selfie sharing options to a single app

A new article has been published at prMac.

Selfie X brings the best of selfie sharing options to a single app - Published on 12/24/14

Triankle Inc. has released Selfie X, a free social media app that blends the best elements of photo-sharing social media into a single, superior service that is both fun and safe. Available in a large array of languages, Selfie X can take you globally to meet friends around the world or meet new people in your own community. To use the service, users simply share a selfie with another user and enable messaging after a selfie-exchange.

Seoul, South Korea - Triankle Inc. has released Selfie X, a free social media app that blends the best elements of photo-sharing social media into a single, superior service that is both fun and safe. Selfie X has a simple premise with excellent features that take it a cut above similar apps. To use the service, users simply share a selfie with another user and enable messaging after a selfie-exchange. If the feature is enabled, the reaction video of the recipient opening and viewing their sent selfie is sent immediately to the original sender.

The reaction video as well as the swapped selfies disappear after being viewed, so those moments are kept private and exclusive to those they are shared with. The app can also check to see who's using Selfie X nearby (or in locations around the world) to use as a chat starter to exchange selfies and grow the user's personal network.All registered users will have the mobile web address, such as selfieex.com/user name, and users can boast this mobile album of selfies posted on Selfie X, to their friends.

"We saw the selfie boom as a way to share one's identity and thought, why not allow people to connect over sharing their selfies in a safer way? This allows users to communicate locally and globally with those they already know and those they have yet to meet," said developing company Triankle Inc. representative Sang June Lee.

The app can be connected optionally to the user's existing Facebook and Twitter accounts to share their selfies and their selfie galleries. The app will also inform the user on who has been viewing their profile, giving them more information on their audience as well.

In its newest version 2.1.0, Selfie X is optimized for iOS8 and has support for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Bugs that users have experienced have also been addressed.

Features:
* Selfie and selfie video post, share and exchange
* Reaction video sent to swapped selfies
* Selfies that self-destruct after exchange for maximum privacy
* Chat feature after selfie exchange
* Personal mobile web album
* Follow your friends to see their updates
* Optionally share selfies to Facebook and Twitter
* Ability to comment and "like" photos
* Unlimited uploads into your gallery

Easy Jumping Game lets you enjoy and actually finish a game

Easy Jumping Game lets you enjoy and actually finish a game - Published on 12/24/14

Ricky Vuckovic has released a run and jump game on the App Store that you can actually finish, even if you don't normally play arcade games. Players jump over pointy obstacles to get to the finish line. If one runs into an obstacle, they are knocked off the screen and the level starts over. Easy Jumping Game is designed to introduce kids and non-gamers to the jumping game genre through a short, fun and achievable six stages of leaping and bounding action.

Canberra, Australia - Ricky Vuckovic has released a run and jump game on the App Store that you can actually finish, even if you don't normally play arcade games. Easy Jumping Game is designed to introduce kids and non-gamers to the jumping game genre through a short, fun and achievable six stages of leaping and bounding action.

Created as a response to the ever-growing number of "endless level" arcade games, Ricky created Easy Jumping Game to let players enjoy the act of simple play and achievement, without the complications of understanding power-ups or needing perfect twitch reflexes to get over the obstacles.

"It's all about making the player feel awesome," says Ricky. "The music is heroic, the pace is short and snappy, and it even shouts 'yay' when you finish a level."

The game follows a pattern of jumping over pointy obstacles to get to the finish line. Running into an obstacle simply knocks the player off the screen, and the level automatically starts again. It keeps the game interface out of the way, and stays focused on the fun and slight challenge of jumping over the obstacles to clear the levels.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 22.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Easy Jumping Game 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. Android and desktop versions are coming soon.

A new article has been published at prMac.

Selfie App Photo Rodeo now includes 20 Surprising Animal Rides - Published on 12/24/14

Spinnaker Innovation has announced its new release, Photo Rodeo for the iOS plaform. The app lets users create impressive, action-packed photos of them and their friends riding exotic animals like a real rodeo star. Users can now purchase a full package of 20 animals - including a swordfish, rhinoceros, zebra, grizzly bear, whale, crocodile and more. Users select a photo, drag a finger and outline their face, the crop, resize and paste. Photo Rodeo is free in the App Store.

Cupertino, California - The hip international fan base of Photo Rodeo - and those who have yet to experience this whimsical and intriguing app - have 20 new reasons to smile and cheer, now that Spinnaker Innovation is offering a full package of 20 exotic animals for only 99 cents.

Photo Rodeo, which can be downloaded at no-cost, is the only app that lets users create action-packed photos of them, their friends or even celebrities riding exotic animals like a real rodeo star. Here's how it all works:

* Users start by selecting a favorite photo from their personal gallery, or they snap one on their device of themselves, a friend or a celebrity from the internet or a magazine using Photo Rodeo's in-app camera

* Next, they drag a finger on the photo and outline their face, now with a new magnifying feature that helps you create crisp images

* From there, crop, re-size and paste any face onto a variety of outrageous photo templates featuring wild animals in action-packed poses - there's a swordfish, rhinoceros, zebra, grizzly bear, whale, crocodile and the list of exotic animals goes on

* Finally, if they wish, users can choose the app's "male", "female" or "child" setting for a more personalized portrait

Once these steps are done - and it takes only a few seconds and requires no technical background or photo editing knowledge - users instantly receive a unique, creative and laugh-out-loud funny collage of their exotic rodeo adventure. They can then save it to their device, or instantly publish and share it via Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Email or text message.

"Around the world people are getting a kick out of making alluring, fresh images with Photo Rodeo. Cat face apps are ubiquitous--instead, enter the new year on the ride of your life!" commented Kate Barclay of Spinnaker Innovation. "And we're also finding that users aren't just creating avant garde images to share with friends and family. Artists, creative professionals, entrepreneurs, marketing and sales executives, and others who want to truly stand out from the crowd are finding that their Photo Rodeo picture is getting them a lot of positive attention, and plenty of likes and shares!"

Added Ms. Barclay: "Anyone can take a selfie and slap a sticker on it but how much more original to show up to Instagram on the back of a swordfish!"

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.1 or later
* 128 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Photo Rodeo-Insta Animal Ride Blend Face into an Adventure 1.0.6 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category.

A new article has been published at prMac.

PlayWith for iPhone helps people find fitness partners nearby - Published on 12/24/14

PlayWith is the simplest way for friends and strangers to get together to play their favourite sports and games. PlayWith is a beautiful app for creating and joining sports activities nearby. Instantly find sport, game and fitness activities and partners. Anything from a game of soccer to a tennis match, on the pitch or on the couch.

PlayWith instantly finds pickup game, sport and fitness activities nearby. Using PlayWith it is easy to find and organise games, stay fit, be social, spontaneous and fun.

Social networks only claim that they are building communities whereas often they are just helping people spend even more time staring at a screen in isolation.

Existing fitness oriented social networks never suggest calling a friend to go for a run. Rather, they encourage going by yourself and then telling all your friends all about it on Facebook.

Online multiplayer is great, but there�s nothing quite like gaming together with friends who are there in person, or competing in front of a cheering crowd. Think back to those games played at the arcade, or on the playground, or on a friend�s couch.

PlayWith helps friends and strangers get together to play their favourite games.

Do so in person, in an intimate and human way. Using PlayWith people can find a game to play, right now or later. Anything from a game of soccer to a tennis match, on the pitch or on the couch.

PlayWith is better. It uses intelligent location aware push notifications to connect people in a seamless way that works perfectly with wearables.

PlayWith uses geofencing and machine learning to algorithmically increase event fill-up rate, participation and reduce no-shows.

PlayWith removes serendipity as a factor. Leverages player reviews, social connections and authentication to create a safe and curated experience. More than just a pickup game finder, PlayWith is about connecting people around their favourite sports and games, making new and developing your existing relationships.

No more endless searching and signing up for Meetup or Facebook Groups. PlayWith makes socializing around sports convenient and easy.

Sports are fundamental building blocks for the relationships we keep. Sports allow people to connect and to transcend cultural and economic barriers. PlayWith mission is to bring the world a little closer, one game at a time.

Tasks can be added, described, and prioritized as well as tagged to assist in future searches. Tasks can also be assigned to certain team members or users can verify them with a group of individuals.

FrontLog tasks are easily shared and collaborated upon with a team of people through the innovative use of Cloud technology. This technology makes it possible to share the logbooks so projects are managed more smoothly and tasks monitored more effectively. FrontLog also provides an instant connection with team members to allow users to manage tasks anywhere at any time. Logbooks can be synched across iOS devices such as iPhones, iPads, and iPod touch devices as well as MAC OS X systems.

The FrontLog interface possesses simple and intuitive functionality, allowing the user to create, edit, and review tasks under the Boxes or Logbooks tabs. After creating a project, or logbook, by selecting the (+) sign in the upper right corner of the interface, users are provided with a listing titled "My Tasks" and "All Tasks." Tasks can also be organized and prioritized within boxes to help manage a project. Under both Boxes and Logbooks options, users can create a new task by tapping the (+) button. After creating and naming the New Task, the user can select to add a description, tags, and when the task is due. If there are any related tasks, they may be added as subtasks. Just like tasks, subtasks may be assigned, prioritized, and tagged. Users can also assign the task to a specific team member, change its designation to "Someday" and "Poke" other team members to prompt them to complete the task.

FrontLog boxes also provide tools for organizing and reporting the task status in a number of ways. These include:

* Starred - lists tasks that have been starred
* Activities - reports activities of tasks according in a timeline
* Next - lists tasks based on which should be completed next
* Someday - lists tasks which have been assigned to be completed someday
* Assigned - lists tasks created by you but assigned to other team members

Send Messages as Games To Your Friends with Huayu Messenger 1.01 For iOS

A new article has been published at prMac.

Send Messages as Games To Your Friends with Huayu Messenger 1.01 For iOS - Published on 12/24/14

Short Bald and Lanky Productions has released Huayu Messenger 1.01, a new messaging app for iPhone devices. Huayu Messenger allows users to send a secret text message and picture to any of their phone contacts. The recipient of the message must solve a puzzle or game to view the message and identify the sender. Users can choose from many different puzzles, games, and challenges to send. They can also set a time limit so the recipient must solve the puzzle or the message will self-destruct.

London, United Kingdom - Short Bald and Lanky Productions has released Huayu Messenger 1.01, a fun, new messaging app for iPhone devices. Huayu Messenger allows users to send a secret text message and picture to anyone in their phone contacts. The recipient of the message must solve a puzzle, challenge, or game to view the message and identify the sender before the timer runs out. If the timer runs out, the message will self-destruct and the recipient will never know who sent the message or what it said.

Feature Highlights:
* Send picture and text messages anonymously until the recipient solves puzzle
* Interface displays messages sent as well as messages received in two easy-to-navigate columns
* 3 different games to choose from
* 4 different challenging levels
* Drawing tools to enhance and/or modify photo
* Large collection of stickers available to add to pictures
* Ability to set time challenge from 5 seconds to 180 seconds
* Helpful tutorial
* Ability to block users

With a step-by-step tutorial, Huayu Messenger provides a unique and fun way to communicate with others. First, users can take a photo or choose an existing one from their Photo Library. Below the photo image, Huayu Messenger offers several different tools and enhancements so the user can modify their photo. After swiping upwards to scroll, users can select from 15 different color swatches and draw directly on the image with their finger. There are also a variety of different stickers that can be added to the picture. Stickers can be easily added and resized to fit the image by swiping and pinching.

Once the user has completed enhancing their photo, they can left-swipe to move to the next step. Huayu Messenger prompts the user for the text message they wish to send to the recipient. This is the message that will be hidden until the recipient can solve the puzzle, game, or challenge.

Finally, the user must choose which puzzle, game, or challenge will be issued to the recipient and how much time they have to solve it before the message self-destructs. An easy-to-use slider is used to set the timer. The time challenge can be as short as 5 seconds or as long as 180 seconds. There are also 4 different levels of difficulty to select from: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert. Huayu Messenger provides notifications of what percentage of people will be able to solve the puzzle to help the user select the level of difficulty.

Huayu Messenger has 3 different kinds of puzzles, games, and challenges that the user can choose from: Jigsaw, Breakout, and Pairs. Jigsaw breaks the photo into pieces that the recipient must put back together to solve. In Breakout, the user has to detonate each of the squares hiding the picture with one of three bouncy balls that ricochet around the square. The user must move the slider back and forth to keep the ball in play and destroy the squares. Pairs involves matching pairs to unlock each square. When all of the squares have been matched, the recipient may see the photo and message.

"Huayu Messenger 1.01 turns your day-to-day messaging with friends and family into a fun, interactive game," explains Daniel Nicholls of Short Bald and Lanky Productions. "After picking one of your friends or family members from your phone contact list, you send them a message and a photo that's been hidden behind a puzzle, game, or challenge. They have to solve it within a set amount of time or the message self-destructs, your identity remains anonymous, and they'll forever be asking, 'Huayu?' Huayu Messenger includes a step-by-step tutorial and of course, you always have the option to block users you don't want to receive messages from. We think people will really enjoy this creative new way to connect with their friends and loved ones. The future of fun message is here now with Huayu Messenger so sign up now!"

Language Support:
* English

Device Requirements:
* iPhone
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 9.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Huayu Messenger 1.01 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Social Networking & Entertainment categories.
