Yumpod Ltd has introduced You vs The World 1.01 for iOS, an entirely new gaming experience with a social media element. Players are offered a vast platform filled with unlockable games, challenges and rewards that all begin after simply building a profile. The app offers the chance to build out an interactive network of gamers, while earning thousands of coins and followers. You vs The World is free to sign up and use, but some game items can also be purchased for faster, further progress.

Dundrum Down, Ireland - Developer Yumpod Ltd has launched an entirely new gaming experience with a social media element, available on the App Store July 23, 2014. Players are offered a vast platform filled with unlockable games, challenges and rewards that all begin after simply building a profile.

You vs The World allows users to follow, invite and even send other players challenges. The social aspect is offered alongside traditional gaming, as players earn coins to deepen the gameplay experience and unlock five games/difficulty settings. The application offers the chance to build out an interactive network of gamers, while earning thousands of coins and followers. You vs The World is free to sign up and use, but some game items can also be purchased for faster, further progress.

With attractive graphics and kid-friendly play, You vs The World offers an attractive platform that is sure to win praise from both parents and schools. Specifically designed with education in mind, the You vs The World School program is highly customizable, allowing teachers to determine which students need the most attention, monitor progress, and gather statistics. Parents will love it, as the platform encourages positive choices and features lovable characters and the ability to learn through gaming.

After creating a username, players build out their profiles and then immediately begin developing a network of interconnected gaming enthusiasts. You vs The World encourages friendly competition and interaction by allowing users to earn points with challenges. The app sends notifications regarding friend activity and point rewards.

"You vs The World allows people to organically develop their own gaming communities," said Aaron Gibson, Director of Yumpod Ltd.

The application is also working on a few more additions that will optimize user experience. Soon, users will be able to include photos and screenshots when uploading statuses. Perhaps more exciting, players are projected to be rewarded for their skills as You vs The World plans to allow users to redeem coins for real money, prizes and awards through its app store in the future.

Epigo! Free Strategy Game for iOS from Red Finch Software - Published on 08/13/14

Red Finch Software announces their new game for iOS devices. Epigo is a new two or four player strategy game. Players must be be the first to capture three of their opponents' Epigons by pushing them off the edge of the board.The game's simultaneous action selection makes every round of the game exciting. Features include challenging gameplay and an in-game tutorial and manual. Epigo provides unique challenges and added countless hours of replayability.

Saskatoon, Canada - Red Finch Software is thrilled to introduce their new game, Epigo for iOS devices. It is a new two or four player strategy game that should feel both fresh and familiar. Epigo's simultaneous action selection makes every round of the game exciting, even though Epigo features relatively simple rules and mechanics. Epigo is also modular - the game includes rules for 4 variants, with more variants available wth each update. Variants modify one or more of the core rules, providing unique challenges and adding countless hours of replayability.

To win, be the first to capture three of your opponents' Epigons by pushing them off the edge of the board. Epigons have a rank between 1 and 7 dictating the speed at which they move. At the start of every round, both players choose and stack three Orders from their hand. The top Order of a stack marks the first move, the middle tile is the second move, and the third tile is the last move. Each Order has arrows on one side, indicating the direction the corresponding Epigon will try to move. Once both players have locked in their moves, the stacks are revealed and unraveled. First, compare the top Order on each stack. The higher ranking Epigon moves one space in the direction shown on the arrows. Then the other Epigon (matching the lower priority Order) moves in the same manner. If both players reveal Orders of the same rank they cancel and neither Epigon moves (players often try to make this happen intentionally for various nefarious purposes). After three moves, players pick up all
of their Orders and start the next round.

Features:
* Official iOS implementation of the Epigo board game
* Deep and challenging gameplay
* Asynchronous multiplayer with push notifications
* 4 AI opponents of varying difficulty
* Local pass-and-play multiplayer
* 4 game variants included, with more on the way
* In-game tutorial and manual

When moving an Epigon, one of three things will happen: it will Slide, Push, or be Blocked. When an Epigon moves into an empty space, it Slides into it. If that space is occupied however, the Epigon tries to Push in that direction instead. An Epigon must have a majority of friendly pieces moving in the same direction whenever it tries to Push otherwise the move is Blocked.

Accolades:

I am delighted with EPIGO and I can see keeping it in my basic game rotation for a long time. - The Opinionated Gamer

Certainly one of my favorite abstract games. - The Dice Tower

Epigo isn't just a great abstract game, it's a pretty great board game, period. - Pocket Tactics

EPIGO has really quite impressed me. - The Little Metal Dog Show

Skater Coming Soon to iOS App Store

A new article has been published at prMac.

Skater Coming Soon to iOS App Store - Published on 08/13/14

Frosch Media today announced Skater, a best-in-class open world skateboarding game coming to the App Store later this month. Skater is like taking part in a huge skate session with users around the world exploring & sharing different ways to skate locations. The app gives players access to unlimited content - a never-ending feed of new ideas, unlike any other previous skating game. This is the first time real skate parks & street locations have been created authentically in any skating game.

Sydney, Australia - Frosch Media, an award-winning game development studio, today announced Skater, a best-in-class open world skateboarding game coming to the iOS App Store later this month. Blurring the line between single and multiplayer experiences, Skater enables social interaction, letting players share their own challenges and experiences in some of the world's best-known skate parks and street spots. The first release focuses on well-known US parks like Stoner Park, Woodward Plaza and The Berrics, and street spots like Carlsbad Gap and Hollywood High.

Skater is like taking part in a huge skate session, with users around the world exploring and sharing different ways to skate locations. This gives players access to unlimited content - a never-ending feed of new ideas, unlike any other previous skating game. Skater's unstructured format and attention to user-generated content makes for an authentic experience without funneling players through a set list of challenges dictated by the developer.

"As ex-competitive skaters and developers, we wanted to play a better skate game on the current generation of devices," said Dain Hedgpeth, Director for Frosch Media. "We surveyed tons of skaters, scoured forums from around the world, and found that we wanted a skateboarding experience that offered organic gameplay, social engagement and a way to expose and share the best things to do in levels - one's that were based on real world skate parks. So I flew to California to meet with some of the world's top skaters and together we travelled to some of the most renowned skate parks in the US."

This is the first time real skate parks and street locations have been created authentically in any skating game. Starting with architectural plans from the city, Google height maps and on-site photography, every detail has been faithfully recreated, even down to the graffiti and bloodstains.

One of the people met in California was Andrew Reynolds, a legend in the world of skateboarding. "This game is amazing because I have total freedom to skate my own lines. If I pull off something really cool, I can save it to share with my mates, and there are endless trick runs to check out and try from other people. I could flick through different runs all day - it's pure skate porn."

Based on British Hi-Fi pioneer Arcam's years of experience in designing Digital and Analogue audio, the rDock-uni features audiophile-grade circuitry throughout and allows music lovers to listen at a quality level that no other dock can achieve. Users can choose the high-quality internal DAC, or send a digital signal directly to an external audiophile DAC. The results will surprise and delight all who listen.

The Panic Room: Outrage Ventures into iPhone

A new article has been published at prMac.

The Panic Room: Outrage Ventures into iPhone - Published on 08/13/14

Further exploring the possibility of conveying an intricate multilayered narrative in a hidden object game, a leading Russian publisher and developer Nikita Online opens the iPhone chapter of The Panic Room: Outrage. This is a rich and neatly designed hidden object game inviting its users to explore the interior of a vast Victorian-style mansion. Players must find hidden objects while avoiding the Puppeteer, a mysterious villain who controls the mansion and its inhabitants.

Cupertino, California - The Panic Room: Outrage, a story-driven hidden object game repeatedly rated among the top 3 titles in Puzzle and Adventure charts of the Russian App Store in its iPad iteration, is now available on iPhone. In order to prevent any risk of impoverishment of game experience ensuing from transition to a smaller screen, The Panic Room's owner and creator, Nikita Online has gone the extra mile to overhaul the game's user interface. The Panic Room: Outrage fans can now enjoy an uncut version of their favorite title and sync their game progress between its iPad and iPhone versions.

"Bringing a hidden object game to smartphone can prove to be quite a task even for experienced teams. Making it comfortable for players to locate tiny objects is a real challenge for UI designers. In our case, the opulence of text content within The Panic Room was hardly something to simplify it," says Nikita Online's CEO Stepan Zotov. "We did our best to step up to the challenge and place no constrains, limitations or inconveniences upon iPhone gamers."

The Panic Room: Outrage is a rich and neatly designed hidden object game inviting its users to explore the interior of a vast Victorian-style mansion utilizing a wide array of different modes and mechanics. But it's neither diverse gameplay nor elaborately detailed visuals which really makes the game stand out. The Panic Room's definitive value lies in its profound storyline interweaving unique, individual destinies of ten well-drawn out characters. At some point of his or her quest the player is to join one of the rivaling in-game factions: The Underground or The Followers. The first seeks to undermine the reign of the Puppeteer, a mysterious villain who controls the mansion and its unwitting inhabitants. The latter, on the contrary, came to recognize him as a spiritual mentor.

Main Features:
* 1400 story-driven quests
* 2 alternative storylines presented in the best traditions of Agatha Christie's fiction
* 2 opposite factions representing 2 alternative storylines
* 10 unique characters with their own unique stories
* 13 highly detailed locations to explore, 5 game modes to master, an infinite number of mysteries to unveil
* 3 seasons of engaging narrative in ultimate hidden object experience already appraised by millions of gamers worldwide

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 327 MB

Pricing and Availability:
The Panic Room: Outrage 1.1 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

instaJam - iOS App that's changing the way music is made

A new article has been published at prMac.

instaJam - iOS App that's changing the way music is made - Published on 08/13/14

Indie developer, Mike Lancaster today introduces instaJam 1.0, his new music collaboration app developed for iOS devices. Musicians in search of a creative new way to create, collaborate and connect, can now download this brilliant new app at no-cost. instaJam is about removing borders between musicians. The app encompasses audio layering technology, a multi-channel mixer, a drum machine, a looping machine and an effects processor to help musicians collaborate with each other in a unique way.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - Musicians in search of a creative new way to create, collaborate and connect, can now download the brilliant new iOS app, instaJam at no-cost. instaJam is removing the boundaries between musicians and is changing the way music is made. If you ever have wanted to jam with a friend, an acquaintance, or family member but your schedules were in the way, perhaps there was a lot of distance separating you, or maybe you couldn't find any recording space - instaJam is the app for you, solving all of those problems. instaJam is for every musician, all occasions, and can also be used by musicians in a solo-session mode as well.

instaJam encompasses audio layering technology, a multi-channel mixer, a drum machine, a looping machine and an effects processor to help musicians collaborate with each other in a unique way. Additionally, instaJam has a unique guitar tuner built into it that allows musicians to tune by ear right from their iPhone or utilize a built-in digital guitar tuner.

The application works as a multichannel mixer, audio-layering application with a smooth jam-session work-flow sitting on top of it. Powered by Amazon's cloud servers which track the workflows of each session, send email notifications, store each audio-layer, and store the song when it's completed it has the potential to support a large customer base. Each musician gets to record their music in a sequential workFlow that is configured when the session is created (i.e. drum first, guitar second, vocals third, etc.)

Additionally, each musician hears what the other person(s) preceeding them recorded as a backing track and add layers of sound through the audio layering technology built into the app. instaJam records the mic-line by itself while seamlessly mixing all of the layers contributed by others through a multi-channel mixer and back to the musician's ears.

Ultimately, at the end of the entire session instaJam mixes everything together into a final song and sends it as an email attachment to all of the musicians that collaborated on it. Songs can be shared in numerous ways from within the app (twitter, facebook, email)

Quick Features:
* Universal app (iPhone, iPod, iPad)
* Collaborate with any musician
* Share songs via twitter, facebook, email
* Multichannel mixer
* Audio-layering and jam-session work-flow*
* Import backing tracks
* Drum machine
* Loop machine
* Effects processor
* Guitar tuner
* Great for guitar instructors

The application is especially appealing to casual musician's who have gotten away from jamming and want to fire up a solo-session or re-connect with old friends. A lot of apps seek to have musicians perform real-time jam sessions and these apps fail for a number of different reasons. Don't let your busy schedules get in the way of creating music. Add to compositions, when you want, how you want, with who you want.

This app is also great for guitar instructors, allowing instructors to create a session with one or more students, import backing tracks and pass it on to the student(s), culminating in a song compilation at the end of the assignment.

Device Requirements:
* iPad, iPhone or iPod
* iOS 6.0 or later
* Universal Application
* 17.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
instaJam 1.0 is free and is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the music category. Educational discounts are available.

Mac Backup Guru 2.0 Launches

A new article has been published at prMac.

Mac Backup Guru 2.0 Launches - Published on 08/13/14

UK based MacDaddy today announces Mac Backup Guru 2.0 for OS X, an update to its innovative utility designed to back up files and disks reliably and simply. Mac Backup Guru offers advanced features, such as bootable backups, synchronised volumes and folders, and a Snapshot mode that uses system hard links to save space. The interface is designed to be simple to understand and clutter free, so that novices and professionals alike can take advantage of its powerful features.

London, United Kingdom - Today Mac Backup Guru developer MacDaddy released Mac Backup Guru 2.0. Mac Backup Guru offers advanced features, such as bootable backups, synchronised volumes and folders, and a Snapshot mode that uses system hard links to save space. Yet the interface is designed to be simple to understand and clutter free, so that novices and professionals alike can take advantage of its powerful features.

Developer Ben Slaney was keen to update Mac Backup Guru because his other product, Data Recovery Guru is only able to recover data on hard disks. Ben says, "The proliferation of Solid State Drives in Mac laptops is a worry for me. Like hard drives, they have a limited lifespan, but unlike hard drives, when an SSD fails, there is no way to recover the lost files."

Mac Backup Guru 2.0 is designed with a simple interface, to give users a simple way to secure their data. But the simple exterior hides some very advanced features. It works with local hard drives, so it is always fast to back up, and just as importantly, fast to restore. The two modes available allow the user to restore files or whole systems within minutes.

Synchronized Clone Backup:
This mode is designed to keep an up to date, bootable copy of the system drive or individual folders. If the worst happens and your system drive fails, simply restart the machine from the clone backup, and you are instantly up and running again. The drive is synchronised daily, but can be manually done at the touch of a button. Perfect for a last minute backup before taking a laptop on a trip.

Backup with Incremental Snapshots:
This mode will also allow a full bootable copy of a system drive, so users can be back up and running immediately if they suffer a failed drive. But this mode also takes Snapshots of the hard drive, so that if files were accidentally deleted, the user can look back at previous back ups to find the missing file.

This Snapshot mode may sound like it would require large amounts of storage space. However, because Mac Backup Guru uses OS X system hard links, it only needs as much storage as the original drive, plus the space that the deleted files require. This means a months worth of Snapshots, each a full backup, can fit on a drive barely larger than the original backup.

Fast to backup, instant to restore:
The initial backup may take some time, in either mode. But subsequent backups or Snapshots only copy the changed files, so are extremely fast. In the event of a disk failure, simply boot from the external drive and instantly be up and running again.

A perfect copy:
Mac Backup Guru makes a perfect copy of the data every time, including file permissions and metadata. Many other Mac backup applications, including Apple's own Time Machine app, fail to retain things like metadata. This can cause problems, especially if the data backed up includes the system files.

Ben Slaney commented, "I discovered that the vast majority of backup software for the Mac doesn't do a great job of keeping the integrity of the files it copies. Even Apple's own Time Machine fails to make a perfect copy of things like metadata, which can cause serious problems. So I made sure that Mac Backup Guru 2.0 makes perfect copies every time".

Plays nicely with online backup and synchronization services:
Mac Backup Guru is designed to use local storage, as this means users can immediately get back up and running in case of disaster. But we understand that many users like to use services like DropBox, or other online backup services. These services are great as a second line of defence, as keeping an off-site backup is good practice. The only drawback being the length of time it takes to restore from an online service (it could be days or even weeks!). But Mac Backup Guru 2.0 supports these services, and won't conflict with their work.

System Requirements:
Mac Backup Guru 2.0 requires OS X 10.7 or newer, and has been tested with the forthcoming OS X 10.10 Yosemite.

Pricing and Availability:
Mac Backup Guru 2.0 is available now as a direct download from MacDaddy online. The price is $29 (USD), which is at time of writing approximately GBP17, or Euro22. To review Mac backup Guru 2.0, simply download the fully functioning demo version. Please email David Fanning @ Tin Drum PR and we will send a code for the full license. A Reviewers Guide is available online.

With Air Stylus and the S Pen that ships with every Galaxy Note tablet or smart phone, users can draw or paint directly on the screen into almost any computer-based creative software that supports pressure sensitivity. Air Stylus is designed for artists and photographers, enabling them to focus on their art in a way that was previously only possible with additional hardware costing hundreds or thousands of dollars.

"The Galaxy Note is an ideal match for Air Stylus," says Dave Howell, Avatron's CEO. "iPad owners currently need to purchase a third-party pressure sensitive pen to use Air Stylus, but Samsung's S Pen offers better performance, and ships for free with every Galaxy Note."

Originally launched for the iPad, Air Stylus was built from the ground up to be compatible with Photoshop(R), Illustrator(R), Lightroom(R), and more than a dozen other creative apps that support pressure sensitivity.

"We tried all the drawing apps on the iPad and found that they forced us into cumbersome workflows," says Howell. "We knew we could do better. While some offer a good creative experience, artists and designers rely on the processing power of their computer-based software.

"We designed Air Stylus to let artists use the computer-based workflow they're familiar with, the elegant convenience of a tablet, and the finesse of pressure sensitivity."

How Air Stylus works:
After purchasing the app on the tablet, users install the free Air Display host software on their computers, then simply tap to launch the app. Once the wireless connection is made from the computer, users launch their graphic design program, drag its window to the tablet's screen, and begin to draw directly on the tablet's display with the S Pen.

Pricing and Availability:
The Air Stylus client app is available for $14.99 (USD) on the Google Play Store, with the iOS version available on iTunes.

ToDo4team - the best multiplatform application for team task management

A new article has been published at prMac.

ToDo4team - the best multiplatform application for team task management - Published on 08/13/14

MacMike today announces the launch of ToDo4team, its new task management solution available via web browser, Windows, Mac OS, iOS and Android. ToDo4team app is designed to suite needs of small and medium sized companies and organizations. Its main feature is assigning and listing of tasks for individual employees. Using ToDo4team on any platform makes task delegating really simple - just enter a task subject via app or send an email to a specific dedicated email address.

Kosice, Slovakia - MacMike today is proud to announce the launch of ToDo4team - task management for working teams in small and medium sized companies. Assign, edit, and comment on tasks, check up on status and do not forget important things. ToDo4team is available via web browser, Windows, Mac OS, iOS and Android application.

ToDo4team app is designed to suite needs of small and medium sized companies and organizations. Its main feature is assigning and listing of tasks for individual employees.

Businesses' and organizations' management consist mainly of planning, organizing, leading and controlling of workflow. The most important tools of every manager are assigning, controlling and checking up on tasks delegated to employees.

Every task has its own life cycle, which starts by assigning the task. Task can be delegated by manager or directly by employee. Using ToDo4team on any platform makes task delegating really simple - just enter a task subject via app or send an email to a specific dedicated email address. The user is immediately notified upon receiving a new task. If there are any attachments in the email sent to the dedicated email address, they are also available in ToDo4team app. So all necessary task information and documents stay in one place and are reachable by managers and employee which is working on the task.

ToDo4team allows managers to place tasks in specific order according to priority of individual task. So employees are aware of tasks' importance. In addition to the task order, every task can be marked as 'High Priority' - displaying an exclamation mark icon.

All involved persons have access to all information about the task and can participate - make comments and according to user privileges make changes to priority and status. When done with the assignment, the status of the task is then changed to "completed." It means the employee has finished his work and manager is notified and is supposed to check quality of the work done. If the manager is satisfied with the work of the employee, the task status is changed to "closed" and the task is automatically moved to task history. If any additional work is required from employee, manager can return the task back to active tasks.

In case of forwarding the task to some other employee, there is a simple way of doing so. Using simple Drag & Drop feature of ToDo4team, the employee working on the task can be changed easily. Both new and old employee working on the task is informed about this change.

Only the manager can cancel a task simply by deleting it from the list. Employee working on the task is notified about the change.

Effective management and workflow requires careful checking on all tasks. One of the biggest mistakes made by many managers is forgetting to check up on assigned tasks. Every single task assigned to employee to be completed should be checked for status in reasonable time span. Also, employees should not be allowed to remove tasks from task list without permission of manager.

List of successfully closed tasks is highly important for company's business success. Every task completed for specific client should be turned into an invoice or should be mentioned in your monthly report - according to workflow of your company. Not forgetting a completed task is really important for effective work and cash flow for your business.

Very important feature for making the most of the time spent working on tasks is detailed statistics on time spent on individual tasks. Employees use a special icon to register the start and the finish of work on every single task. So the working time for every employee and every task is recorded for further statistics and decision-making. You can spot employees working really hard and the ones working not so hard. The time consumption can be used for adjusting client price creation for future jobs, too. For every task, the time intervals are displayed and cannot be changed by any user. Many companies use time interval records to measure total the work time of employees.

Time matters - the work time required for task completion is important for client's satisfaction. The faster the results are delivered to the client, the better satisfaction rates are achieved. So why waste time by unnecessary communication inside your company? Every action - task assignment, commenting, editing, status changing, etc. is important to the others in your company. Notification about every important action always reaches the right person. Notifications are delivered by email, or by Android or iOS native notification systems. Notifications are designed to be useful and never bother the user. So you receive only notifications relevant to your position. Also, you can set the way of receiving them - email and/or native mobile platform notification system.

Everything is stored in the cloud. The future of company management is finally here. All necessary information is stored in one single place easily reachable by all workflow participants. You don't have to take care about storing, synchronizing and backing up any data. Everything just works.

ToDo4team is reachable on every common platform. You can use any web browser for full-featured access to the ToDo4team system. Applications for Windows and Mac OS are also available. If you are on the go, you can use Android or iOS app for iPhone and iPad.

To start using ToDo4team just login online and fill in basic information - your email address and password and you are ready to go. Then just sign in. On a single screen you can see all users with their tasks. Adding new users is done easily through the Settings pane. Enter user's name, email address, password and role - employee or manager. Login information is being immediately sent to user so you don't have to do that manually.

Using the mobile version of ToDo4team starts by downloading free app from Apple's App Store or Google Play on Android devices. After logging in to the app you are asked to receive notifications.

After the first 30 days trial you're requested to fill in your company's information and credit card number. Monthly fee will be automatically withdrawn. Amount of monthly fee is calculated according to number of active users. Detailed pricing can be found at ToDo4team online.
