Greg's Review
Megacity HD game app is tablet certified.

Here is a great mash-up game that has me hooked big time. A combination of Simcity and Tetris. Can you believe that combo? Better than chocolate and peanut butter. You have to match up residential, commercial, and industrial properties to clear neighborhoods. The more you clear the higher the score and hard the play. Easy to learn but impossible to master.

Warning! Do not start playing this game unless you have a bunch of free time because it will suck you in!

"addictive iPhone gaming at its peak." 9/10 - AppGamer

"going to make the hours melt away." 9/10 - 148Apps

MegaCity is a highly original and fun 'one-more-go' style city building puzzle game.

It's easy to learn but hard to master and features gameplay that sees you inadvertently creating your own puzzles!

Place requested buildings in the queue to earn points, but watch out: Nobody wants to live next to a landfill site or industrial estate! Everybody wants a nice park or school nearby, but the city's budget is limited.

This is where you come in...

Megacity is a game of planning and thinking ahead to squeeze the most points of out your citizens by clever town planning. And if it all goes wrong, it's their fault for electing you mayor, right?

Megacity is a real thinking person's game, which appeals to and is suitable for all ages.

Features:
-Dozens of different buildings
-10 unlockable buildings
-New challenge puzzle mode
-Achievements, local & online high scores.

Halftone 2 photo app is tablet certified.

This is a fun app for making comic strips and comic books using your own pictures. Share photos directly to Facebook, Flickr, and Instagram. Make your superhero dream come true. Great for making unique art that tell a story. Make a birthday invitation that tells a tale.

From Developer

The long awaited sequel to Halftone (named by Apple as one of the best Photo apps of 2011, selected by Starbucks as a Pick of the Week in 2012, rated 4½-stars in the App Store, with over 2 million downloads) is finally here!

Halftone 2 re-imagines what it means to turn your photos into professionally-themed comic book pages on a touch device. Its extensive feature set is based on direct feedback from our most passionate Halftone users. Quickly and easily create stories that put words in your friends’ mouths and thoughts in their heads. Add some WHAMS, BAMS, and POWS, and share your creations with the world.

Halftone 2 was built from the ground up to take full advantage of touch, and working with your photos has never been more natural. The radial menu makes it easy to customize all of your elements, and you can explore worry-free, knowing that undo and redo is a quick tap away.

The graphics engine in Halftone 2 is based on mathematical vectors, so all of your elements look crisp and clean at any size. Best of all, Halftone 2 “hand draws” its captions and balloons, so no two ever look exactly alike.

When you’re done, easily share your masterpiece with family and friends via e-mail, Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Dropbox, and more.
Halftone 2 runs on iPad 2 or later and iPhone 4 or later.

Other features:

• A video guide that introduces basic concepts
• Customizable captions and balloons
• Stamps like WHAM, BAM, and POW that have been created by Comicraft for Halftone 2
• Configurable page layouts and background textures
• An enhanced image picker to open photos directly from Facebook, Flickr, and Instagram
• Undo and redo support for risk-free exploration
• Comprehensive photo editing tools from Aviary that include automatic enhancements, filter effects, brightness, contrast, saturation, sharpness, redeye, whiten, blemish, and selective focus
• Direct sharing via e-mail, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Dropbox, and AirPrint-enabled printers

Vine co-founder is leaving

Read the Full Story HERE The Verge

Read the Full Story HERE on re/code

Dom Hofmann, co-founder of the social video-sharing service Vine, has stepped down from his lead general manager role at the company, according to three sources close to the situation.

Hofmann, who has led the company since its inception in early 2012, will take a far smaller role in developing the product, and will no longer be working on Vine on a day-to-day basis, these sources said. Instead, Hofmann has been working on another yet-to-be-revealed startup, the details of which are unclear at this point.

Vine co-founder and former chief technical officer Colin Kroll will take over Hofmann’s daily duties leading the New York-based Vine’s staff of approximately 14 employees. Sources also said that Vine is close to hiring a Manhattan-based product leader to work on the team, though that role hasn’t been filled quite yet.

(Update 12:30 p.m. PT: And according to four sources, the role has indeed just recently been filled. Jason Toff, a product manager at YouTube, has accepted the new product manager position at Vine, though I’ve been told this shouldn’t be considered a replacement for Hofmann’s previous role. Both Toff and Twitter did not respond to requests for comment.)

Twitter spokeswoman Carolyn Penner declined to comment on the matter.
