Duckie Deck Collection - Unique Combination of 6 Engaging Games For Kids

Duckie Deck is proud to announce Duckie Deck Collection 1.2.2, a unique combination of 6 engaging games that help kids form healthy habits and positive attitudes by invoking smiles. More than 8 million children in 180 countries around the world are playing Duckie Deck's games. Every day, Duckie Deck supports parents around the world in the task of educating their young children. Our games teach in a simple way why you should share with others, segregate garbage or brush your teeth.


Krakow, Poland - Duckie Deck was founded in Krakow two years ago with a vision of educating through play and inducing smiles on the faces of toddlers. Since then, the project has continually received praise from parents of preschoolers from every corner of the globe. The Duckie Deck Collection games support parents in the everyday education of their children using simple approaches, understandable even for kids as young as two. Parents of toddlers often do not know how to effectively encourage a three year old to share toys with other children or how to entice them to eat vegetables and fruits. Give Duckie Deck a try - we're sure it'll help.

Duckie Deck Collection is designed for preschool-aged children. Its creators are focused on developing a platform which develops creativity in an intuitive way and teaches children positive attitudes and healthy habits - all the essential skills for a preschooler.

Our biggest mission is to raise a smiling human. We believe that positive emotions assist in the acquisition of the good habits and values that we're focused on. Our fun games teach in a simple way why you should share with others, segregate garbage or brush your teeth. We demonstrate the meaning of love, friendship and respect. We believe that the children who play our games will change our world in a few years, making it a friendlier place. - says Marek Przystas, CEO of Duckie Deck Development.

Each of our games is developed in cooperation with teachers, parents and children, who valiantly test and improve our products. Ideas for new games flow in from all over the world, and parents inspire us to create more and more of them. We are delighted with the growing interest in our products and very warm words from preschool teachers from all over the world. Duckie Deck has become an effective tool during their activities with children - says Marek Przystas.

Friendly colors, playful soundtracks and an uncomplicated user interface keeps the children focused and eager to explore new things in the game and, more importantly, they can play and learn without distraction since all applications are completely safe and free of advertising.

Duckie Deck Collection is a mobile application available on Android systems, iOS and now, thanks to the cooperation of Duckie Deck with Whalla Labs, also on Windows Phones 8 and tablets or laptops with Windows 8.

Almost 200 different monsters are here, waiting for you to collect. Feed, breed and train them with your heart and love, form your dream team to challenge the mysterious lost tower. Version 1.3 has loads of new content added to it. Challenges, activities, buildings, scenes and  new collectable monsters have been added.


Shanghai, China - The mobile software developer, Haypi Co., Ltd. today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of Haypi Monster: The Lost Tower 1.3, a new significant update to their hit MMORPG for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. The new game version 1.3 has loads of new content added to it. Challenges, activities, buildings, scenes and new collectable monsters have been added.

Up the mystic paths of the Lost Tower, new monsters have come up. Now the different floors have become home of new critters such as Needles, Bragga, Robo, C-4PO, and Pinster. Needles looks like a needle-ball and belongs to the Physical element. He does actually roll itself into a ball, in order to hide his needles and prevent hurting others unintentionally. This little critter has been timid and shy since its birth. He looks like a puffy little brownie. Bragga is an exotic royal family member, and also belongs to the Physical element. He keeps boasting about his noble origin and about his resourcefulness. He looks like a complacent ninja monkey, and his confidence has solid grounds.

Both Robo and C-4PO have arrived from planets where only robots dwell. But they belong to different elements. Robo belongs to the Psychic element and is more sensitive and spiritual. He has a natural animosity against speedy things. His favorite colors are white blue and red, and he has them painted all over his metal body. C-4PO belongs to the Electric element. Looks like his not over with the time-travel lag, ever since he arrived from his planet of robots. He seems to be always in a state of instability. He looks old-fashioned but it also seems that he's smiling through the metal. Pinster is the only monster of the Water element that is joining the crew of critters in the Lost Tower. He looks like a proud blue lobster, who is so keen on cutting things into half with his strong pincers.

A whole new scene has been added to the game. Mystical creatures live there and turn the adventure into a real challenge for the bravery and skills of the monster tariners. The new scene - the Thorny Forest - is situated between the fire Volcano and the Frozen Cavern. What kind of climate can be expected there?

An Alchemy building has been added to the main screen of Haypi Mosnter: The Lost Tower. In that magical place, players can exchange Legend Fragments for legendary scrolls. Legendary monsters are not just legends, they exist!

Now the game also offers a new activity available for the monster trainers. It's called "Trial of the Grand" and features challenging powerful monsters to win legend fragments. The activity is only available for players at floor 4 or above, every Tuesday and Thursday server time.

Legend fragments can also be won in the "Titan's Bronze Hoard" challenge. It has been added in Team Mode and is available every Saturday server time for players at floor 3 or above. One legend fragment will be awarded each time the challenge has been passed! Taming a legendary monster looks so real now!

* iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 70.8 MB

Movie Player + 1.3.0 for iOS uses Face Recognition for Autoplay/Autostop

Power APP today announces Movie Player + 1.3.0, an update to their popular video app for iOS devices. Movie Player + is a powerful app that adds creative filters and special effects to any video in real-time. The app features 8 artistic filters, 3 special effects, and an innovative One Touch Brightness and Contrast Control. Version 1.3.0 introduces a new algorithm for face recognition using the internal camera. The face recognition is used to detect the presence of the person watching a movie.


Pfaeffikon, Switzerland - Power APP today is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of Movie Player + 1.3.0, an update to their popular video app for iOS devices. Movie Player + is a powerful app that adds creative filters & special effects to any video in real-time. This upgrade includes an algorithm for face recognition using the internal camera of the iPhone/iPad iPod touch. The face recognition is used to detect the presence of the person watching a movie. If this person is moving away from the device that is playing the movie it stops automatically, and continues playing when the person returns.

"We already used a similar algorithm in our app 'Wake Me Up' to set off an alarm tone when the eyelids are closed. Since we already have this algorithm we decided to put in in use for other apps as well. It is the perfect tool for an autostop/autoplay feature." explains christian Schaffner, General Manager of Power APP AG.

Besides the newly introduced autostop/autoplay feature Movie Player + features real time editing of movies on iOS devices, including sepia, vignettes, grey scale filters and a 3D effect with cyan/red glasses along with a tool to adjust contrast and brightness that Power APP calls OTBCC (which stands for 'One Touch Brightness and Contrast Control').

"While being able to edit any movie and adding effects in real time and saving the changes is actually a lot of fun, Movie Player + is still a movie player too. It is therefore important to add functions that enhance the experience while just watching a movie. You aren't always in the mood to do crazy experiments like watching the latest episode of games of throne with night vision, sometimes you just want to enkoy a movie as it is. The autostop/autoplay function is just right to add a little comfort to that." explains Christian Schaffner the motivation to implement face recognition in Movie Player +.

Main Features:
* Add effects to any movie in real time
* Autostop/Autoplay function
* One Touch Brightness and Contrast Control
* Head Up Display
* 3D effect with adjustable depth with red/cyan glasses

Presentime Synchronized Presentation Timer for iOS 7 Gets a New Buzz

Massachusetts-based Midnight Oil Enterprises, LLC, has released Presentime 1.3 for iOS, an update to their synchronized countdown timer for speakers and performers. Presentime supports direct device-to-device synchronization, so a device at the podium can be adjusted on the fly by a moderator or colleague in the audience. The update adds a "stop now!" buzzer button that, when pressed by the moderator, sounds, vibrates, and flashes the screen on synchronized devices, urging a timely finish.

Amherst, Massachusetts - Gone are the days of holding up fingers or minutes-remaining signs for the presenter to notice or interrupting speakers to tell them that they are out of time. Midnight Oil Enterprises, LLC has announced the release of Presentime 1.3 for iOS, an update to their synchronized countdown timer for speakers and performers. Presentime is an easy-to-use countdown timer with a big difference. In addition to operating as a stand-alone timer, Presentime can be used as a broadcasting Master Timer or synchronized with a Master Timer.

Presentime incorporates iOS 7's Multipeer Connectivity for direct device-to-device interaction, so a device at the podium can be adjusted on the fly by a moderator or colleague in the audience. A quick glance at the Presentime app from time to time is all that is needed to adapt to the time remaining.

The latest update adds a "please stop now!" buzzer button that appears on the Master Timer once the allotted time has expired.  When pressed by the moderator, the screen on a synchronized device flashes brightly, accompanied by a bell sound and vibration.

"We've all attended, or even been in charge of, meetings where some presenters continue well past their allotted time," says Midnight Oil Enterprises co-founder Dan Corkill. "With Presentime's new 'Buzz' button, the moderator can remind everyone near the podium (repeatedly, if necessary) that it is time to stop.  It's a must-have feature for session chairs who'd rather not have to interrupt an overrunning speaker to tell them they're done."

Synchronized, on-the-fly adjustment:
Meeting chairs or directors can pause the Master Timer if the presenter is interrupted and even adjust the time remaining on the fly, if appropriate. Changes made at the Master Timer device are reflected at all synchronized devices. Synchronization uses iOS 7's Multipeer Connectivity framework, which enables direct device-to-device discovery and connection via WiFi or bluetooth without a network connection or bluetooth pairing. Direct synchronization is ideal for venues without internet access.

Using Presentime is fast and easy:
To set the presentation time, simply touch the Set button and then slide your finger up and down on the time display, Time-remaining alert settings are adjusted by sliding the yellow, orange, and red alert marks left and right. Then touch the Start button to begin timing.

During the presentation, the allotted time can be adjusted up or down in thirty-second amounts by using the two time-adjustment buttons that appear in context. The time added or removed is indicated on the countdown display. The time-remaining alert marks can also be adjusted during the presentation, if appropriate, and a Pause/Resume button is also available. As the time remaining drops below each alert setting, the display background changes color to alert the presenter. The alert can be augmented with optional sound or, on iPhones, vibration.

If the alloted time has expired, the display flashes every second to catch the presenter's attention. Sound or vibration when the time has expired is also available. Timing is stopped by touching the End button for one second, and preparing for the next presenter begins again by touching the Set button. Default allotted and alert-time values can be adjusted in the app's Settings screen, so setting up the next in a series of equal length presentations requires touching only the Set and then the Start buttons.

Synchronizing devices is equally simple. All that is needed is to select "Synched" on the segmented mode control and then enter the four-digit connection ID of the Master Timer.

Major features:
* Direct device-to-device discovery and synchronization via WiFi or bluetooth without a network connection or bluetooth pairing
* Adjustable yellow, orange, and red time-remaining alert settings and flashing time-expired notification with optional sound or vibration
* Quick presentation-time and time-remaining alert setting using gestures
* "Night" mode for darkly lit rooms

Three operating modes:
1) Stand-alone timer
2) Broadcasting Master Timer
3) Synchronized with a Master Timer

New in Presentime version 1.3:
* Master Timer "Please stop now" buzz button that signals synchronized devices to vibrate, play a sound, and flash their screens
* Sounds and vibrations are now silenced automatically in Master Timer mode

Supports all devices running iOS 7 or later. Ad hoc peer-to-peer wireless networking requires:
* iPhone 5 or later
* iPad Air or 4th generation
* iPad mini
* iPod touch 5th generation
* Universal Application
* 1.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Presentime 1.3 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category. It is a free upgrade from earlier versions.
