Balloonimals (1)
11/13/09 •
In carrying with the kids app theme for today, I’ve decided to finally review Balloonimals. I love this app. It’s amazing. Whenever I show off the iPhone’s capabilities to those unfamiliar (e.g. my mom), I tend to whip out Balloonimals because it’s quick, graphically flashy, and interactively beautiful. It’s the stuff that makes you weep ... Read More

After all that gamer talk yesterday, today is my reprieve from anything so serious. Oh yes, that means kid’s apps! ABC Maze is a recent development by the creators of iWriteWords, a favorite app of ours we gave high accolades several months ago in June. Thankfully, gdiplus knows a thing or two about developing stellar ... Read More

Neon Blast (1)
11/11/09 •
Hip music. God, I love hip music. Neon Blast is an arcade style, sideways scrolling game that would feel right at home in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off or some 80′s movie with a kid – in bright shirt with tacky, geometric designs, no doubt – tapping away ferociously on big, cumbersome controllers, with crudely lined ...

AstroSwami Pro (4)
11/11/09 •
My boyfriend’s first impression of AstroSwami Pro was, “trippy.” I can’t think of a better word to describe this app. Horoscopes and Zodiacs, Astrology studies and websites vary far and wide, ranging in quality from pure silliness to the exceptionally serious. You’ll often find the silly, frivolous horoscopes on the back pages of Cosmopolitan and ... Read More
