OKGo’s Andy Ross Programmed Lindsay Lohan’s The Price Of Fame Game 0
December 12th at 5:23pm / TechCrunch / 0 opinionsLindsay Lohan’s The Price of Fame is now at #10 in the App Store after only a week and a half. Of course, if we’ve learned anything from Kim K, celebrity-backed mobile games tend to do quite well in this space. If that were all this was, it wouldn’t be much of a story. The truly interesting part is that Andy Ross, guitarist for power-pop band OK Go, is the guy who programmed…

One year later, mobile puzzle game Threes is going free 1
June 11th at 3:29pm / The Verge / 0 opinionsBy any measure, Threes is a success. The mobile puzzle game has been downloaded more than a million times, and even spawned a console version on Xbox One. But despite the sales and accolades, the developers behind it feel that it hasnât really met its full potential. A lot of that has to do with the $2.99 price tag, and the strange debacle it unintentionally inspired. So today theyâre making Threes free....

February 18th at 2:09am / The Verge / 0 opinionsKendall and Kylie Jenner, of Kardashian / Jenner family fame, have a new mobile game out today. It's called Kendall and Kylie, and it was made by Glu, the same company that made Kim Kardashian's game, Katy Perry's game, and will make Taylor Swift's upcoming game. Intrigued and resigned, Kaitlyn Tiffany and I decided to check it out. We thought we knew what to expect from the game â but we didn't know what to expect from ourselves....

Free App Of The Week: Snapseed, iOS’s Incredible Photo Editor App 0
June 1st at 9:23am / Cult of Mac / 0 opinionsApple recently followed Amazon’s lead in unveiling a “Free App Of The Week” category, and this week’s is a doozy: Nik Software’s practically perfect image editor, Snapseed. Normally priced at $5, Snapseed is a fantastic photo editing app that allows you some fantastic control over manipulating and editing photos that you’ve taken with your iPhone. It’s simple enough that even the most Photoshop-unfriendly Instragrammer can use it. This isn’t the first time Snapseed has been free, but my guess is a lot m...

This Week’s Must-Have iOS Games: First Touch Soccer, Spider Jack, Frisbee Forever & More! 2
May 8th at 8:00am / Cult of Mac / 0 opinionsKicking off this week’s selection of must-have iOS games is a brand new soccer game from X2 Games – the team behind the award-winning X2 Soccer titles. First Touch Soccer promises to be the true next-generation of soccer on iOS, offering the “most complete, realistic and addictive soccer sim available.” Spider Jack is the latest puzzle release from Chillingo and I’m betting this game will be the next iOS game craze. Inspired by Cut the Rope, this game features a similar gameplay mechanic and all the ing...

Snow Fight iOS Game Makes It Feel Like Christmas Every Day 0
December 7th at 12:49pm / TechCrunch / 0 opinionsThis morning I was feeling particularly dreary. The weather is gloomy today in the Big Apple, grey and rainy, and it’s chillier than it was yesterday. I found a little comfort in the fact that the holidays are on their way, but looking out the window it simply doesn’t feel like Christmastime. Disheartened, I opened up my trusty MacBook Pro and started in on my least favorite part of the hump day, checking email. But something special was waiting for me in my inbox this morning, something that makes me ...

The Week’s Best iPhone Apps 1
April 22nd at 10:00pm / Gizmodo / 0 opinionsPhotosynth: Basically, Photosynth is a panorama photography app. It's got Microsoft's Photosynth engine under the hood, stitching together as many shots of a given area-up, down, left, and right-as you feel like snapping to create a surprisingly smooth model of the space. Whereas other apps of its ilk have you do this thing where you kinda slowly and steadily smudge your way around in a circle to develop a panorama, Photosynth lets you take as many overlapping rectangular shots as you want and sorts 'em...

The Act 0
August 21st at 12:30pm / Macworld / 0 opinionsBetween a man-sized mouse, two foul-tempered ducks, and a cross-dressing rabbit, animated comedies have long aimed to strike a balance between innocence and irreverence. At its best, The Act, a self-described “interactive comedy,” straddles that line expertly. In the span of a few short scenes, your hapless hero goes from dealing with a puking infant to sabotaging a brain transplant—a story communicated entirely through beautifully animated physical comedy and wacky music. It’s not exactly a...

The title looks a lot like Doodle Jump, only it features Sega’s beloved blue hedgehog instead, and rather than being just an endless jumper, you’ll have to beat new and familiar stages in pursuit of the infamous Dr. Eggman.
