A new article has been published at prMac.
AlphaDigits Top Rated Apps May 2018 - Published on 05/31/18
AlphaDigits names five top class mobile apps every month based on the reviews published in the website during the particular month. This website has now released the names of top rated mobile apps for the month of May. Addalets is a word game. Archsketch is a digital sketch pad. Cute Bear Adventure Racing is fun and interactive. Fast of Clan is filled with obstacles and challenges. Cryptosaur is simple by design, but rich in features.
New York - Mobile app review publisher AlphaDigits has named top rated applications for May 2018. AlphaDigits names five top class mobile apps every month based on the reviews published in the website during the particular month. This website has now released the names of top rated mobile apps for the month of May.
Addalets (10/10): This is a word game that works the mind to learn more about the letters that make up words and helps you to learn more words and what they mean. There are several word games out there, where you have to create words from a jumble of letters, but Addalets takes it a step further by providing you with the meaning of the different words you could be creating.
Archisketch (9.5/10): The app is a digital sketch pad. You open it up and start sketching away. You can then add predefined objects and overlay them. You can add symbols, choose colors, add text to notate the various items in your drawing and dimensional lines and grids to align and place items in relation to each other and to the drafting space. The app supports Apple Pencil, but you can also use your fingers if you want to make a quick sketch.
Cute Bear Adventure Racing (9/10): This is a really great game, it is fun and interactive. The game is based on the whole monster truck experience. It is about achieving challenges, which are based on getting to the finish line and completing the obstacle of jumping over cars, trucks, rocks, houses and more with your little monster bug.
Fast of Clan (8.5/10): The description says that the game is filled with obstacles and challenges. However, the game instructions are not clear and one is not 100% sure how to navigate through your setup. The best feature of all is that you are able to join an existing clan or create your clan. The colors in the game are vibrant, but players would have preferred to have been able to choose their own background colors.
Cryptosaur (8/10): Simple by design, but rich in features, Cryptosaur presents you with an abundance of information that's real time and critical to the decisions you make throughout the day. No more guessing. No more wondering about what's happening in the market. No more logging into different websites to see what's happening with the different currencies. Cryptosaur brings it all together.
Joe Ellen, an Editor at AlphaDigits said, "We can generate downloads and reviews for iPhone and Android applications. Our marketing team can also rank an app for any keyword." Developers can also contact AlphaDigits through the onsite form, mail or the contact form to get their apps reviewed.

Intergalactic shooter Space Pioneer out now on iOS - Published on 05/31/18
Vivid Games today releases Space Pioneer 1.0.1, the company's latest game title for iOS devices. Budding bounty hunters choose choose from a deadly arsenal of shotguns, flamethrowers, laser blasters and grenade launchers and more, each with their own upgrade path for enhanced killing power. The game prides itself on its infinite galaxies of gorgeous yet hostile worlds to explore, populated by swarms of ferocious aliens and complimented by a pulsating sci-fi electro-pop soundtrack.
Bydgoszcz, Poland - Launching today on iOS, Space Pioneer has been developed by the award-winning game publisher and developer Vivid Games, creator of the Real Boxing series. The game prides itself on its infinite galaxies of gorgeous yet hostile worlds to explore, populated by swarms of ferocious aliens and complimented by a pulsating sci-fi electro-pop soundtrack.
Budding bounty hunters who choose to take up arms in the pursuit of fame, riches and the satisfaction of an extermination job will get to choose from a deadly arsenal of shotguns, flamethrowers, laser blasters and grenade launchers and more - each with their own upgrade path for enhanced killing power. Players can also select different support load-outs, including portable gun turrets and an Orbital Strike for when the brown stuff hits the fan. Players overwhelmed by the alien onslaught can rely on their trusty robot sidekick to provide additional cover fire as well as the familiar witty quote or two. As players progress through different worlds, they'll be able to unlock skills to boost their offensive and defensive capabilities including increased firepower and shield enhancements.
From dense jungle planets to dry, canyon-filled landscapes, wannabe alien hunters will get up close and personal with a menagerie of overgrown bugs, flesh-eating plants and giant robots - all with a juicy price on their heads/thoraxes/tentacles. With each planet seemingly conquered, players will come face-to-face with the game's main antagonist Xeldar, a multi-legged behemoth who grows stronger with each encounter.
Space Pioneer also features a vast variety of mission types and objectives from item-recovery to ship repairs. Gamers can also form their own space base to build and upgrade different building types, including the armoury for high-grade armour and the workshop for companion upgrades. Upgrades also provide striking visual changes to characters.
Players annihilating enemies at a rapid pace can further their war efforts by taking part in Horde Mode, a sophisticated wave-based mode in which gamers must do all that they can to survive against a barrage of different enemies to reign supreme.
Vivid Games will be publishing a number of additional titles in 2018 including platform fighter Mayhem Combat(TM) featuring an array of characters, elemental powers and multiplayer modes launching June 2018 and 3D racer Gravity Rider(TM), challenging players to speed through tracks featuring realistic physics-based obstacles coming August 2018.

Say Hello to Retrobatch, a Powerful Node-Based Batch Image Processor
A new article has been published at prMac.
Say Hello to Retrobatch, a Powerful Node-Based Batch Image Processor - Published on 05/30/18
Washington based Flying Meat Inc. releases Retrobatch 1.0, the company's new batch image processor for macOS. Retrobatch is dramatically different than any batch image processor ever seen, featuring a nodal interface for easily processing single images or thousands of images. Retrobatch includes machine learning and rules for sorting images, metadata editing, and a nonlinear workflow creating a powerful user interface for professional and amateur users alike.
Mukilteo, Washington - Flying Meat Inc. today is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of Retrobatch 1.0. the company's new batch image processor for macOS. Retrobatch is dramatically different than any batch image processor ever seen. Each operation in Retrobatch has a node, and nodes are linked together on a canvas to create a workflow.
But why node based? "Every batch image processor I've come across is linear." says Gus Mueller, founder of Flying Meat Inc. "You put images in one end, and out they come on the other side. But that's so limiting! With Retrobatch it's possible to take a folder of images and then operate on them multiple times within the same workflow. You can reference separate folders to combine images into a single output. Using nodes opens up unlimited possibilities."
In addition to including the great standard features of any batch processor such as changing file type, cropping, and watermarking, Retrobatch raises the bar by offering machine learning and classification models. Use rules to remove or sort images in a workflow based on attributes such as color profile, file format, size, and orientation. Which images in a workflow contain a hotdog? Or not? Retrobatch also includes the ability to install new domain specific models for precise image classifications. With these features, Retrobatch gives users a powerful means of sorting images for further processing.
Feature Highlights:
* Delete all metadata, or just remove GPS
* Set the image DPI, title, author, description, and copyright
* Edit specific metadata such as IPTC, EXIF, PNG, TIFF, and CIFF
* Scriptable: run AppleScript, and shell scripts
* Transform: crop, flip, rotate, scale to resize, trim edges to remove transparency
* Add text or image watermarks with over 20 different blending modes available.
* Use metadata tokens to quickly add metadata values as a watermark or as part of the file name
* Use preloaded templates or create and save customized templates
* Split multilayer and multipage images into individual images
* Combine images to create multipage PDF or multilayer PSD
* PNG compression and optimization
* Change or remove color profiles including RGB, CMYK, grayscale, DP3, and many more
* Color adjustments: saturation, brightness, contrast, exposure, gamma, vibrance, blurs, noise reduction
* Color effects: add a border, drop shadow, matte, sharpening, and over 10 photo filter effects
* Multiscale for web optimization and icon design
* Generate screenshots
* Open RAW file types and any image file supported by macOS
* Read images from the clipboard, Photos library, folders, and subfolders
* Write images to the clipboard, folders, or open in other apps
With its unique and user-friendly interface, Retrobatch easily handles both simple and complex image processing needs. Examples of time saving operations in Retrobatch include:
* Photographers can edit and add metadata to their image files, then apply the metadata as a watermark
* Users can remove GPS and other privacy sensitive and identifying information from images before uploading to social sites
* Web developers can optimize images for retina display by creating one workflow branch to resize images to 50%, and another branch to write out PNG files with the @2x suffix added to the file name
There are two versions of Retrobatch- Regular and Pro. Pro has all the available nodes, including advanced features such as machine learning, changing bit depths and color profiles, processing with AppleScript and shell scripts, rules, and advanced metadata entry. The Regular version features the basics including cropping, resizing, watermarks, and changing image file formats. "Customers appreciate having a choice" says Mueller. "And with a free trial, they can decide which version best meets their needs with the option to upgrade in the future."
Language Support
* English
System Requirements:
* MacOS 10.12 Sierra or later
* Machine Learning and Classification Node requires MacOS 10.13 High Sierra or later
Pricing and Availability:
Retrobatch Pro 1.0 is only $49.99 (USD), and Retrobatch with slimmed down features is available for $29.99. Both are available to be directly purchased online from the Flying Meat Inc website. A free 14 day trial with all features included is available for download.
