Manilo Apps unveil highly anticipated SeaLife Rescue sequel - Published on 04/04/14
Manilo Apps today introduces SeaLife Rescue 2, the sequel to their highly addictive and popular game title for iOS devices. Easy to learn but tough to truly master, SeaLife Rescue 2 is a unique and fun take on the classic 'Match Three'-style game. The player's task is to gather the animals of the same species back together so that they can be safe and together once again. High-quality and colourful graphics are beautifully placed alongside exciting power-ups and a wholly original soundtrack.
Nuenen, Netherlands - Manilo Apps, the independent and family-run apps company with an emphasis on creating charming brain-training games, today is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of SeaLife Rescue 2 (v1.0), the sequel to their highly addictive and popular game title for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
After a vicious storm has hit the ocean all sea life - including fish, octopus, craps and seahorses - has been scattered around the seabed, far from their homes. The player's task is to gather the animals of the same species back together so that they can be safe and together once again.
Easy to learn but tough to truly master, SeaLife Rescue 2 is a unique and fun take on the classic 'Match Three'-style game. High-quality and colourful graphics are beautifully placed alongside exciting power-ups and a wholly original soundtrack. The game is extremely intuitive and can be experienced by the player for a short or long length of time - from a few minutes to even hours at a time - either on the move or at home.
SeaLife Rescue 2 improves on its predecessor in a number of ways, including a new scoring system and full Facebook integration that allows users to show off their highscores to friends. This is a key feature to SeaLife Rescue 2, as the game features unlimited levels and could mean some very competitive highscore battles between friends. Unlike its predecessor, SeaLife Rescue 2 will also be available on iPads.
The release of SeaLife Rescue 2 coincides with Manilo Apps owner, Francois Boisnard, hosting a talk about the game and his company at this year's Appril - a unique festival in the Netherlands that revolves around apps and the mobile Internet.
A true 'appreneur', Boisnard launched Manilo Apps last year to show his children how to be inventive and creative in their careers regardless of small budgets: 'Manilo Apps was developed by myself from scratch on a shoestring budget, and continues to run on limited funds. This was a conscious decision because the whole idea of launching the company came from my teenage kids asking me what they could enterprise that would be innovative, have a global reach and be achievable on a student budget. I decided that the best way for them to learn was for me to lead by example.'
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.1 or later
* 56.4 MB
Pricing and Availability:
SeaLife Rescue 2 (v1.0) is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. Francois Boisnard's presentation at Appril taking place April 3rd. Further details about Manilo Apps can be found on their website, Facebook and Twitter.

Retro gaming inspired Kablam for iPad released
A new article has been published at prMac.
Retro gaming inspired Kablam for iPad released - Published on 04/04/14
AppAvenger today introduces Kablam 1.0, its new game title for iPad. Inspired by a console classic, Kablam brings the mad bomber back for iPad gamers. Broken up into 8 level segments, beginning with a first segment homage to the original game, each segment introduces new bomb types, combinations and challenges with ever increasing speed and complexity. Do you have what it takes to survive? Old school retro inspired gaming, nothing but eye/hand coordination challenges at their best.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - 30 years ago a console game introduced a character called the Mad Bomber to the world. Players, armed with nothing more than 3 buckets of water, had to survive as long as possible against the bombers endless supply of bombs and ever increasing difficulty.
This simple but addictive game went on to become a classic of the early home console age, but we couldn't help but wonder, what ever happened to the mad bomber? It's been 30 years, what has he been up to? Were the rumors true? Was he killed by one of his own bombs? Had he moved on to true terrorism instead of simply terrorizing young game players? Was he now working as an entertainer alongside a ventriloquist? Or had he simply decided to give up his nefarious ways and now living the quiet life in the American Midwest?
Apparently the answer is no, he's been quietly biding his time. Cooking up ever more sadistic challenges to keep players on their toes. He could no more go live the quiet life than give up breathing. He's had 3 decades to perfect ever more insidious challenges, and he's been using all that time to his advantage.

Learn about places around with WikiPlaces 3.70 for iOS - Published on 04/04/14
Auckland based independent developer, Vitaly Pronkin today announces WikiPlaces 3.70 for iOS. WikiPlaces provides access to Wikimapia; a collaborative mapping project with the aim to describe every location in the world, and currently having 20 million places annotated all over the world, millions of which also with detailed description, photos and user comments. This update brings sharing feature, new location details view, improvements to bookmark management and user interface.
Auckland, New Zealand - Independent software developer, Vitaly Pronkin today is pleased to announce the release of WikiPlaces 3.70 for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad devices. The WikiPlaces application provides access to Wikimapia - a collaborative mapping project with the aim to describe every location in the world. It currently has over 20 million places annotated all over the world, millions of which also have detailed description, photos and user comments. You will be amazed how much interesting and surprising you will learn about places you seemed to know.
WikiPlaces can display Wikimapia data in different languages and two presentation styles, and has all standard features you would expect from a mapping application, including search (by address, coordinates, place name or ID), bookmarking and user location tracking.
Version 3.70 brings several important changes and new features:
New sharing feature allows to share links to specific place or location. Will share a link to open WikiPlaces application as well as a link to Wikimapia or mapping website for devices without WikiPlaces installed. Of course it's also possible to manually compose links utilising the new wikiplaces:// scheme.
Bookmarks improved with ability to rename existing bookmarks and specify custom name when adding bookmarks, and with support for bookmarking arbitrary map locations as well as Wikimapia places.
New details view is available for arbitrary map locations (ie., when you long-touch any point on the map) with options to view address, copy coordinates, add bookmark and share - just as for Wikimapia places.
Other changes include improved user interface, especially on iPad, ability to navigate to Wikimapia place by specifying its ID in the search field, and various bug fixes.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch or iPad
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 6.9 MB
Pricing and Availability:
WikiPlaces 3.70 is available exclusively on the App Store for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad free of charge in the Navigation category and is ad-supported. Advertisement can be removed via in-app purchase.

Teaching Alphabet and Spelling Strategy for Parents: Take a Nap
A new article has been published at prMac.
Teaching Alphabet and Spelling Strategy for Parents: Take a Nap - Published on 04/04/14
Virginia based Koloza LLC today announces Smart Kid ABC 1.0.5, the latest update to their popular educational family game for iPad. Smart Kid ABC is a fun, interactive, educational app that keeps your kids coming back for more. The software suite offers super awesome Alphabet, My Name, and Spelling modes that make letter recognition and spelling enjoyable experiences. New features added to the Smart Kid ABC app allows kids to learn the alphabet and spelling on autopilot.
Fairfax, Virginia - That's right, take a nap. Koloza's latest update to the kids app Smart Kid ABC, allows children to learn on autopilot without much intervention needed from mom or dad. The most anticipated feature of Smart Kid ABC is in the Spelling game that will enable toddlers, pre-schoolers, and Kindergartners to practice spelling any word in English, Spanish, and French. This is achieved by arranging the letters on the board and clicking the "Play" button to hear the word spoken back. If the word is misspelled, the misspelled sounds will be spoken back.
Koloza's developers are taking advantage of a new feature in iOS 7 called AVSpeechUtterance that allows you to perform text to speech capabilities.
The app also includes the Alphabet game that very cleverly uses shape recognition and auditory response features to expedite letter recognition. One toddler apparently learned the entire alphabet after playing the game for a couple of days. The app awards the completion of the Alphabet with various sticker packs that can be touched to produce cute and funny sounds. Kids love this feature.
As a bonus, a "My Name" game is also available in the app that allows little Johny to arrange the letters of his name until the applause sound and effects are played signaling success.
Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 19.5 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Smart Kid ABC 1.0.5 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. For more information, visit Koloza online.
