Twittelator, Polomoid

  • WaterWays ($3) is an action puzzle game where players take on the role of a cow named Patch. The goal of the game is to protect Patch from the ever rising water. The game uses touch controls for moving Patch around while the accelerometer controls the water. In order to stop the water from rising too high players must help Patch fix all of the broken valves by guiding him to them.

  • iSamurai: Two-Player Sword Fight ($1) is a two-player sword fighting game where players slash, thrust, and block each other with their iPhones. Players can link their devices over a WiFi connection and then begin their battle. iSamurai uses the accelerometer to determine different sword motions and then determines if attacks hit or are blocked. A tutorial has been included that provides players with information on all of the different attacks and blocks that are available.

  • Defender Chronicles ($3) is a tower defense style game which also incorporates elements of a role playing game. Players must set up different towers to help defend the kingdoms princess from an oncoming attack of orcs and undeads. The game includes four different difficulty levels that span across five different game modes including: campaign, freestyle, extended, classic, and classic extended. Defender Chronicals also features five hand drawn battlefields and seven original audio tracks.

  • Twittelator Pro ($5) is a mobile Twitter client with offline features for creating tweets while no active connection is available. The client also features the ability to upload pictures to different image-hosting services such as YFrog, TwitPic, Moby, and most recently, TweetPhoto. A recent update has added the option to record and tweet audio clips and block and unblock followers. The latest release has also addressed several problems including one that prevented users from taking photos.

  • Polomoid Camera ($2) can turn any photo on an iPhone or iPod touch into a Polaroid style image. The software also allows users to draw on pictures using nine different colored brushes. Polomoid also includes several image filters for adding effects and allows images to be saved to the device photo library when finished.

    Hi,

    An update to iSamurai is now in the iTunes store. Also iSamurai is on the iTunes Games "WHAT'S HOT" list today.

    We are working on a bluetooth version which will allow battles anywhere (without Wi-Fi).

    :-)
