Here we go again! Sarge and Marc-Antoine pulled a late one and brought our second App (and our first game) across the finish line. Nothing to do now but blow a kiss toward Cupertino and wait for news of our approval. So … start the clock! The Secret Worldwide Headquarters will be closed for the [...]

Congratulations to our own Emmanuel Valdez who this morning is a father for the third time! Baby Emma was born at 9:22am Pacific Time at 7lbs 3oz and 20″. Mom and baby are fine. Em … we’re not so sure about Em. He’s still tuning our first game release in hopes of submitting to Apple [...]

We’ve been so wrapped up finishing our next App (almost there) that we nearly let May get behind us without our monthly installment of “What We’re Playing.” Here’s were we give an informal round-up of the games that are commanding our attention here at the Secret Worldwide Headquarters of Appy Entertainment (aside from Appy Newz, [...]

When we moved Appy Newz to the “Photography” category of Apple’s App Store a couple weeks ago, we did a sweep of iPhone-oriented photography sites to drum up interest for our App. One of the sites that really caught our attention was Greg Schmigel’s Just What I See — a site displaying the remarkable photos [...]

In honor of the three-day weekend here in the United States, we are lowering the price of Appy Newz to $0.99 USD through Monday, May 25. For non-U.S. customers, prices will be equivalently reduced in buckazoids, credits, Klingon K’hluks, or whatever your local currency may be. You know, most companies would consider a sale all [...]

Blinking against the stabbing rays of a burning sun, version 1.2 of Appy Newz has stumbled from the labyrinth of Apple’s approval queue and into the light of day. It has been weeks since we submitted this update, so I am at a loss as to what it includes. Let’s see … it has performance-enhancing [...]

Regular readers of this crazy blog may remember my last business-oriented post speculating on the future of Apple TV and how it is primed to morph into a game console. Since that time, the pieces have started to fall into place. Consider these recent developments and rumors: Apple Snags Xbox Exec (PC World) Apple Hires [...]

It’s been too long since we did our last (and thus far only) “Friday With Farzad” — and more are coming, we promise — but in the meantime, perhaps this interview prior to Farzad’s appearance at CG Con 2009 will tide you over. Head on over there and check it out … and if you [...]

A brief weekend posting today to introduce and honor the precocious “21seant.” We can argue over whether he’s Appy Entertainment’s youngest fan — but there’s no argument that he’s Appy’s youngest fan posting YouTube comments about Appy Newz … [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NdvcLchcUM] And that’s not all … our young video correspondent goes on to post a full [...]

Since our selection as a “Staff Favourite” in several international App Stores, Appy Newz has continued to enjoy strengthening sales in several international territories. We’ve enjoyed particular popularity in land of Goethe and David Hasselhoff — Germany! Not to be outdone, our English breathern have this morning spread around a little Appy love, too — [...]
