Seattle, Washington - Spiderweb Software, makers of the Avernum, Geneforge, and Avadon series, have released the second chapter of the hit Avernum saga for mobile devices. Avernum 2: Crystal Souls is an epic fantasy tale in an enormous, war-torn underworld. The end has come. Years ago, your people were imprisoned in the underworld, doomed to end their lives in the darkness. Then that was not enough. Your captors have invaded your caves, determined to kill you all. They are winning the war.

The surface world is commanded by the tyrannical Empire, the eternal power that controls all known lands. Everyone who spoke out, misbehaved, or didn't fit in was cast into the dark, volcanic pits of Avernum, far below the surface. They were meant to die. Instead, these exiles survived, gained power, and struck back. They assassinated the lord of the Empire.

Now the Empire will have revenge. They have invaded Avernum, seizing cave after cave and destroying your people. Your land needs a hero, and it needs it now. If you can't find a way to stop them, and soon, you are all doomed.

Pixelmator for iOS Gets an Update - Published on 07/14/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Pixelmator Team today releases Pixelmator for iOS 2.0.2, an update to its full-featured, powerful, and easy-to-use image-editing app for iPad and iPhone devices. Pixelmator for iOS 2.0.2 adds Dynamic Touch to all Retouch tools, redefines the performance of its desktop-class Repair tool, enhances the Photo Editing extension, and more. The Pixelmator Team also introduces a free User Guide book and five new, inspiring Pixelmator-for-iPhone video tutorials.

London, United Kingdom - The Pixelmator Team today releases Pixelmator for iOS 2.0.2, an update to its full-featured, powerful, and easy-to-use image-editing app for iPad and iPhone. Pixelmator lets you touch up and enhance images, sketch and paint, as well as create complex image compositions on iPad and iPhone alike.

The new Dynamic Touch feature lets users adjust the stroke size of all Retouch tools without changing the brush settings. Pixelmator for iOS 2.0.2 detects the finger surface area in contact with the screen and automatically adjusts the brush size when the surface area changes. Users can use the tip of their finger to create thin strokes and a larger finger surface area for thicker lines. This lets them retouch images faster and more precisely.

Pixelmator for iOS 2.0.2 redefines the performance of its unique and incredibly powerful Repair tool, making it up to 5 times faster and even more precise than before. Based on advanced calculations and rigorous testing, Pixelmator's Repair tool lets users remove unwanted objects from their images with stunning quality and incredible speed.

"There are numerous ways to repair any area of an image, so we did a lot of testing on a Mac Pro to optimize the algorithm of our Repair tool," said Simonas Bastys, the lead developer of the Pixelmator Team. "We analyzed millions of possible ways to repair areas of various complexity, and then compared the speed and quality ratio of each final result. After six months of testing, we derived a repairing algorithm that gives stunning quality with incredible speed every single time. Pixelmator for iOS now takes advantage of the same algorithm."

Pixelmator for iOS 2.0.2 is packed with other great performance improvements such as an enhanced Pixelmator Photo Editing extension, which now allows users to apply Pixelmator photo effects right in the Photos app absolutely seamlessly.

The Pixelmator Team also introduces a free Pixelmator-for-iOS User Guide book and a collection of inspiring Pixelmator-for-iPhone tutorials. Now users have everything they need to take full advantage of all powerful Pixelmator for iOS features.
