A new article has been published at prMac.
Norse Noir: Loki's Exile Partners with Jory Prum and All-Star Cast - Published on 05/19/15
Norwegian-based developer, KreativeSpill A/S has announced their partnership with award-winning sound designer Jory Prum for their upcoming episodic point-and-click adventure game series "Norse Noir: Loki's Exile," a classic-style, hand-drawn adventure game in which the roaring 20s and Norse mythology collide. Prum's extensive knowledge and expertise as a veteran of the gaming and film industries contribute to crafting the game's distinct, multi-worldly setting.
Oslo, Norway - KreativeSpill A/S has announced their partnership with award-winning sound designer Jory Prum for their upcoming episodic point-and-click adventure game series "Norse Noir: Loki's Exile", a classic-style, hand-drawn adventure game in which the roaring 20s and Norse mythology collide. Prum's extensive knowledge and expertise as a veteran of the gaming and film industries, including Telltale's award-winning The Walking Dead games, Lucasarts' Escape from Monkey Island, and DoubleFine's Broken Age, contribute to crafting the game's distinct, multi-worldly setting.
The partnership with Prum complements the game's unique approach to its voice cast, assembled by casting and voice director Melanie Ehrlich, comprising both industry veterans and talented newcomers. The game's all-star main cast starts off strong with its main character, Lars Kristiansen, and his alter-ego Loki, voiced by Spike Spencer (Neon Genesis Evangelion, Bleach, BlazBlue, World of Warcraft), and also includes Stephanie Sheh (Legend of Korra, Sailor Moon, Naruto), Vic Mignogna (Full Metal Alchemist, Attack on Titan, Dragon Ball Z), Lisa Ortiz (Pokemon, One Piece) and Mike Pollock (Sonic The Hedgehog, Yu-Gi-Oh). Rounding it out are up-and-coming actors such as Daisy Guevara, who voices local shoeshine boy Hemingway, and SungWon Cho in a dual performance as both mafia goon Lenny and swaggering huntsman Fredric.
"Collaborating with KreativeSpill on Norse Noir has been a wonderful opportunity all around, but this voice cast is something special," says Ehrlich, who also appears in-game as tough-as-nails Sgt. Betty Amaria. "I'm particularly excited about the combination of known talent like Stephanie Sheh and Spike Spencer AND some very talented newcomers as well! It's always nice to give new voices the opportunity to be heard."
"Norse Noir has very much been a project of love for the team," said designer & writer Brad L. McAtee, "but having such amazing talent breathing life into both our characters and our sound design has really made the game shine in ways we never thought possible. Everyone has turned in a stellar performance and we can't wait to show it off to the public very soon."
Norse Noir: Loki's Exile is scheduled for launch on PC and Mac via Steam, as well as on Windows Phone, in late May, 2015. The full cast list for the game can be viewed at the bottom of this release, or on IMDb.

Selfiest: a new iPhone app with selfie contests, user ratings and stats - Published on 05/19/15
Barcelona based Snob Technologies has released Selfiest 1.0, a new free social selfie network app for iPhone users that features weekly selfie contests, user ratings, and statistics. Selfiest allows selfie lovers to participate in exciting selfie challenges, view their rankings and statistics, and connect with other selfie takers nearby. A built-in photo editor allows users to perfect their selfies with exclusive filters, effects, stickers, doodles, word art, frames, and more.
Barcelona, Spain - Snob Technologies, a young and creative mobile development studio, has announced the global release of Selfiest 1.0, a free iPhone app designed to connect people who love taking selfies. Each week users can test their skills in themed selfie challenges by uploading up to two selfies. After the challenge is closed, all app users can immediately view the results and selfie ratings.
Selfiest is also the first photo app that shows user rankings based on their all-time activity. Rankings depend on the number of followers, likes received, and selfies posted. They can be filtered by time period, (week, month, all time), and location, (nearby, city, world). Finely designed and built, this app will help find new friends and become a true selfie expert. A built-in photo editor provides every tool needed for that - including exclusive photo filters and effects, funny stickers, doodles, word art, frames, memes, and more.
With Selfiest, users can search selfie takers nearby, follow or unfollow them, view their profiles, comment, and like their selfies. The app also allows users to view stats for fans (followers), likes, top fans by location, gender, and more. Selfiest supports sharing to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Features:
* Apply cool filters & effects, add funny stickers, text, frames, and memes
* Take part in weekly themed selfie challenges
* Share your selfies and challenge results on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
* Discover, follow and communicate with selfie takers near you
* See where you rank among other users (both locally and worldwide)
* View stats for fans, likes and selfies by week, month, and location
* View top fans by gender and location
"We wanted to create a selfie app that would offer way more than just perfect photo editing tools. We added statistics and rankings so it's easier for users to track their popularity. We hope users will like the simplicity of our app, and will use it to participate in selfie challenges, share their best shots, and track their results," said J.B. Fort, CEO at Snob Technologies.

FunPlus Set to Change Role of Mobile Games Publisher via PublishingPlus
A new article has been published at prMac.
FunPlus Set to Change Role of Mobile Games Publisher via PublishingPlus - Published on 05/19/15
Next Generation of Game Publishing Looks to Mitigate Risk on Mobile: PublishingPlus is open for all free-to-play game developers to apply, regardless of team size or location. Drawing from FunPlus' expertise as a global leader in the F2P mobile industry, and strong local presence in major marketplaces worldwide, PublishingPlus provides independent development partners with a wide range of financial and operational support in addition to expert guidance throughout each game's lifecycle.
San Francisco, California - The FunPlus Group, a worldwide mobile social gaming company, has announced the creation of PublishingPlus, a revolutionary new mobile game publishing program that will provide game developers with a simple, transparent alternative to "traditional" publishing. PublishingPlus is now open for all free-to-play developers to apply, regardless of team size or location.
Before joining FunPlus as Head of Business Development, Greg Essig managed the games section of the App Store at Apple, where he liaised with numerous game publishers and developers. Prior to Apple, Essig helped create the gaming division for Creative Artists Agency (CAA) where he led numerous development and publishing arrangements. These roles helped shape his understanding of the mobile games marketplace and how PublishingPlus can make it better for developers.
Drawing from FunPlus' expertise as a global leader in the free-to-play mobile industry, and strong local presence in major marketplaces worldwide, PublishingPlus will provide independent development partners with a wide range of financial and operational support in addition to expert guidance throughout all stages of their games' lifecycles. Through a structured tier-based system, the program will give developers clearly defined, pre-negotiated milestones and deliverables to ensure concrete expectations for both parties with significantly mitigated risk.
The PublishingPlus program is based on four differentiating tenets:
* 100% upfront financial support from concept to launch
* A 50/50 net revenue split between FunPlus and developers
* Global marketing and operations support on iOS and Android
* Developers' continued ownership of their IP
"PublishingPlus is a major step into the future of mobile game publishing," said FunPlus Co-founder and CEO Andy Zhong. "The current market has let too many great games fall by the wayside due to uncertainty. By eliminating that confusion and offering FunPlus' wealth of experience and resources, we hope to change this trend so that talented developers have a chance to shine."
The PublishingPlus website is live and officially accepting applications as of today, May 11. In its transparency, FunPlus includes an easily accessible term sheet for interested developers.
"PublishingPus is a mobile publishing design for the modern mobile market," said Essig, "With our structured program, developers can focus on making great games, without the headaches that come with negotiating for the resources needed to get there."
FunPlus gives developers unparalleled support in the mobile free-to-play games space. This includes project financing, art guidance, engineering and tech assistance, design, analytics, localization, monetization, marketing and live operations services.
"As a developer, choosing a publisher is critical to the success of our project, and of our company, and it can be downright scary," said Octact Co-founder and COO Paul Chieffo. "FunPlus made it easy. Their team has given us the resources to succeed and stands behind us every step of the way. PublishingPlus will make the marketplace more approachable for indie developers everywhere."
Game developers interested in applying are free to submit their ideas for consideration at any stage of development. PublishingPlus will consider applications as early as paper documents or as far along as geo-beta. Financing begins immediately and support continues for each successful tier and milestone met.

A new article has been published at prMac.
Fresh Air - Real Time Air Quality Index for iPhone and Apple Watch - Published on 05/19/15
Raleigh based 'e design' has released Fresh Air - Air Quality Index 1.0, the new fitness app for the iPhone and Apple Watch. Fresh Air is a unique Apple Watch app. Providing anyone with real-time air quality information with just a glance, the app can display the exact air quality for the current location. If the air quality worsens, Fresh Air can immediately notify users via the iPhone or Apple Watch. They can then tap on the device's screen to view more information.
Raleigh, North Carolina - 'e design' has announced the release of Fresh Air - Air Quality Index 1.0, their newest app developed exclusively for the iPhone and Apple Watch. Providing anyone with real-time air quality information, Fresh Air displays at-a-glance the exact air quality for the current location. If the air quality worsens, Fresh Air can notify users instantly on their iPhone or Apple Watch.
Fresh Air looks awesome on the Apple Watch. Simply swipe up on the Watch screen to display the Glance with the current air quality category or launch the Apple Watch app to get more detailed information. Fresh Air delivers information about current air quality conditions in an easy to view and understand format, using the EPA's color-coded Air Quality Index (AQI). Granular notifications allow users to receive notifications when the air quality category reaches a certain level.
"For people with asthma and COPD, poor air quality can make symptoms like coughing and wheezing worse. The EPA developed the AQI to report levels of ozone, particle pollution and other common air pollutants on the same scale." said Sal Conigliaro, co-owner of 'e design'. "The higher the AQI rating, the greater the impact on the public's health. The AQI is divided into six color-coded categories (green, yellow, orange, red, purple, maroon), which are intended to convey information for the ratings, (Good, Moderate, Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups, Unhealthy, Very Unhealthy, and Hazardous), about how air quality within each category relates to public health."
Feature Highlights:
* Know the air quality for the current location at a glance
* Air quality is updated twice hourly
* Check the air quality for the current location or check another location via zip code
* Make informed decisions about planned outdoor activities
* Receive notifications on the iPhone or Apple Watch if the air quality worsens
* Swipe up on the Apple Watch screen to view the current air quality
* View the air quality without an Apple Watch by using an iPhone or iPod touch
Even users without an Apple Watch can make use of the information supplied by Fresh Air. The AQI is quickly accessed from the iPhone or iPod touch screen, and it can be quickly refreshed with a simple tap of the finger. Users can set the iPhone app to supply the AQI information for their current location or view the information for other locations by simply entering a zip code in the settings screen of the app.
"Even healthy adults who are active outdoors are at risk from ozone, which can make it more difficult to breathe deeply," continued Sal. "Fresh Air instantly reports the current air quality for a user's location, so a quick swipe up on the screen of the Apple Watch allows users to view the current air quality around them. They can then use that information to make an informed decision about their planned outside activities for the day."
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and Apple Watch
* Optimized for iPhone 5, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus
* Requires iOS 8.2 or later
* 10.2 MB

Power APP releases Password Keyboard 1.0 to handle Logins and Passwords - Published on 05/19/15
Power APP has released Password Keyboard 1.0.0, their new password utility developed for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. Password Keyboard is aimed to simplify handling passwords and logins by using a keyboard that is using links to login, the login itself and the needed password instead of letters. The security settings go as far as to offer self-destruction and deleting of all settings after entering the wrong password a set number of times.
Pfaeffikon, Switzerland - Power APP has announced the release of Password Keyboard 1.0.0, their new password utility developed for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. Password Keyboard is aimed to simplify handling passwords and logins by using a keyboard that is using links to login, the login itself and the needed password instead of letters.
The procedure to use the app is simple: after tapping the link key the homepage with the login is opened. Other keys provide the login itself as well as the password. Login to any homepage therefore can be done with just a few taps from within the app. The app itself is protected by a master password or a fingerprint that can be used alternatively. The security settings go as far as to offer self-destruction and deleting of all settings after entering the wrong password a set number of times.
"Entering passwords on a mobile is a real hassle thanks to the use of special characters that usually needs switching to a different keyboards to enter them," explains Christian Schaffner, Power APPs General Manager, the reason to create this app. "The more secure a password is, the more often the keyboard needs to be switched. While this is not a problem using a normal keyboard on a PC or a laptop, it can be a real hassle on a mobile device for the reason mentioned above. I wanted an app that takes care of all this while maintaining security at the same time. Password Keyboard is our solution that takes care of all this."
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 4.3 MB
Pricing and Availability:

Jink Update Introduces Messaging to Map-Based Meetup App
A new article has been published at prMac.
Jink Update Introduces Messaging to Map-Based Meetup App - Published on 05/18/15
Taipei-based Greenhouse Apps releases Jink - Message & Meet on a Map 2.0.1, an important update to its popular social networking app for iOS and Android devices. Aimed at simplifying how friends and family make plans and meet up, Jink 2.0 combines private location sharing and quick messaging in a way that allows users to plan meetups in just a few taps and texts, then find each other with ease. A new "Hey!" feature enables users to start a conversation and share where they're at in an instant.
Taipei, Taiwan - Greenhouse Apps, whose free app Jink is available on both iPhone and Android, last week released the biggest update since its July '14 debut. Aimed at simplifying how friends and family make plans and meet up, Jink 2.0 combines private location sharing and quick messaging in a way that allows users to plan meetups in just a few taps and texts, then find each other with ease.
Prior to this release, Jink's main feature was real-time location sharing to simplify meeting up. Users privately and temporarily see one another move on a map, and the app automatically ends location sharing when they arrive at the same place. Likened to doing for friends what Uber did in putting en route cars on a map, Jink 1.0 has been featured on the Google Play Store home page, been ranked in the app stores of 116 countries, and received praise for its elegantly balanced treatment of privacy and location sharing from publications including TechCrunch, The Guardian, and Android Community.
Last week's release preserves that real-time meetup interaction and adds location-paired messaging, wherein each message sent updates one's position on the receiver's map. A new "Hey!" feature enables users to start a conversation and share where they're at in an instant; simply double-tapping a friend's chathead will send them a "Hey!" along with one's current location.
The additions are meant to broaden the instances where Jink can come in handy, from live meetups to the social and planning conversations that happen every day. Seeing friends' icons on a map adds valuable context to text conversations and eliminates the need for aggravating "where are you?" back-and-forths. As with previous versions, location is shared privately, temporarily, and only with the people you choose.
Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone and Android
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later / Android 4.0 or later
* 17.2 MB on iOS / 9.4 MB on Android
Pricing and Availability:
Jink - Message & Meet on a Map 2.0.1 is free and available worldwide through the iTunes App Store in the Social Networking category. The app is also available for Android devices in the Google Play Store. For more information and to download Jink, please visit the website, the iTunes App Store, or the Google Play Store. Jink has been localized for English, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Korean, and Japanese.

Last week's release preserves that real-time meetup interaction and adds location-paired messaging, wherein each message sent updates one's position on the receiver's map. A new "Hey!" feature enables users to start a conversation and share where they're at in an instant; simply double-tapping a friend's chathead will send them a "Hey!" along with one's current location.
The additions are meant to broaden the instances where Jink can come in handy, from live meetups to the social and planning conversations that happen every day. Seeing friends' icons on a map adds valuable context to text conversations and eliminates the need for aggravating "where are you?" back-and-forths. As with previous versions, location is shared privately, temporarily, and only with the people you choose.
Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone and Android
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later / Android 4.0 or later
* 17.2 MB on iOS / 9.4 MB on Android

TAZ is a puzzle game with geometric shapes for iPhone and iPod touch

TAZ is a puzzle game with geometric shapes for iPhone and iPod touch - Published on 05/18/15
Paris based Amande & Pierre today introduces TAZ 1.0, their new puzzle game for iOS devices. TAZ aims to bring the aesthetic of typography to your iOS device. The name TAZ means Try to go from A to Z. With each level associated to a specific font, players must complete 26 levels in order to achieve the final goal, reaching Z. Each level screen is divided into geometric shapes. In order to solve one level, players must combine the right pieces to recompose the letter.
Paris, France - Amande & Pierre today is thrilled to announce the release of TAZ 1.0, their new puzzle game for iPhone and iPod touch devices. The name TAZ means Try to go from A to Z. That's why there is 26 levels that you need to complete in order to achieve the final goal, reaching Z. And in order to solve one level, you have to combine the right pieces to recompose the letter.
TAZ aims to bring the aesthetic of typography to your iOS device. Each level is associated to a specific font, for instance the level A is associated with the font "Helvetica Neue." Then the level screen is divided into geometric shapes. You can switch a puzzle piece displayed by a geometric shape by tapping on it. Finally, to solve a level you will need to find all the puzzle pieces that match the associated level font.
While progressing through the game, players will find some additional elements: such as magnets, bonuses and maluses. A magnet will attract the letter in order to find the solution more easily. A bonus can be used to temporally reveal the solution. A bonus lasts 5 seconds, so the player can try to reproduce the pieces they have memorized. And a malus will shuffle all the puzzle pieces so that the player will start over the level.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone and iPod touch
* Optimized for iPhone 5, iPhone 6/6 Plus
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 10.0 MB
Pricing and Availability:
TAZ 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.

Each level screen is divided into geometric shapes. In order to solve one level, players must combine the right pieces to recompose the letter.
Paris, France - Amande & Pierre today is thrilled to announce the release of TAZ 1.0, their new puzzle game for iPhone and iPod touch devices. The name TAZ means Try to go from A to Z. That's why there is 26 levels that you need to complete in order to achieve the final goal, reaching Z. And in order to solve one level, you have to combine the right pieces to recompose the letter.
TAZ aims to bring the aesthetic of typography to your iOS device. Each level is associated to a specific font, for instance the level A is associated with the font "Helvetica Neue." Then the level screen is divided into geometric shapes. You can switch a puzzle piece displayed by a geometric shape by tapping on it. Finally, to solve a level you will need to find all the puzzle pieces that match the associated level font.
While progressing through the game, players will find some additional elements: such as magnets, bonuses and maluses. A magnet will attract the letter in order to find the solution more easily. A bonus can be used to temporally reveal the solution. A bonus lasts 5 seconds, so the player can try to reproduce the pieces they have memorized. And a malus will shuffle all the puzzle pieces so that the player will start over the level.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone and iPod touch
* Optimized for iPhone 5, iPhone 6/6 Plus
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 10.0 MB
Pricing and Availability:
TAZ 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.

Toronto based Zevrix Solutions today announces that its popular workflow automation solution for InDesign, LinkOptimizer, is available at 50% off on MacUpdate promo on May 18 only. Awarded 4 out of 5 stars by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer allows to automatically reduce the size of InDesign image links by eliminating excess image data, convert colors, file formats and more.

Toronto (ON) Canada - Zevrix Solutions today is proud to announce that LinkOptimizer, its popular workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign, is available at 50% off on MacUpdate promo on May 18 only. Awarded 4 out of 5 stars by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer automates complex image manipulation tasks allowing to significantly reduce the size of InDesign links, save processing time and reduce production costs. The promo lets users save $130 (USD) on each copy of the software.
"LinkOptimizer makes cutting huge linked images down to size a cinch," says Computer Arts. "For those wanting to quickly optimize their images and cut down on processing time, LinkOptimizer is a very smart choice."
In order to eliminate excess image data, LinkOptimizer automatically scales and crops the images in Photoshop to match their dimensions in InDesign, changes resolution to the target value specified, and reimports images to InDesign at 100%. As a result, the size of InDesign links can be reduced dramatically - some jobs can shrink by half and more.
In addition, with just a click of a button users can:
* Convert image colors to an ICC profile
* Convert image formats
* Delete hidden layers and apply sharpening
* Run Photoshop action on each image
* Save images for web and mobile devices
* Back up all links and assign variable file names
With LinkOptimizer, users can save significant time, disk space and resources:
* Save gigabytes of disk space by reducing link size
* Accelerate document printing and PDF output
* Save endless hours - and even days - of optimizing images manually
* Reduce job turnaround and cut costs through faster processing
