Appy Halloween (Again!)

Sunday, October 31st, 2010

We don’t have any fancy art like we did last year — we’re too busy finishing up Trucks & Skulls to be making greeting cards right now — but as Halloween is our birthday here at Appy Entertainment, we did want to pause and wish everyone a happy holiday and a prosperous year. This spooky [...]

Cleaning Up

Friday, June 11th, 2010

Yesterday we noted that an Apple feature for FaceFighter Gold was a fine way to end the week, but today we might have topped even that lofty honor. We clean our Secret Worldwide Headquarters once a month whether it needs it or not. We break out the cleaning supplies and go top to bottom in [...]

Spoonerism!

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

The world is still reeling from yesterday’s announcement about FaceFighter Face2Face, but work continues apace here at the Secret Worldwide Headquarters of Appy Entertainment. That’s Em, down in the parking lot, taking a picture of an … eh … wooden spoon, to serve as a weapon in our next premium content pack for FaceFighter. We [...]

Coming Soon (?) — FaceFighter For iPad

Monday, March 29th, 2010

We did something unusual on Friday. We created a piece of software for a machine that doesn’t exist. At least, it doesn’t exist for us. We know it exists in an absolute sense, like Kentucky or the dark side of the Moon, but we’ve never been there and can’t confirm that, yes, it is genuine. [...]

Submitted For Your Approval!

Saturday, March 27th, 2010

The guys had a long week, but we hit our deadline and submitted our first iPad app — FaceFighter Face2Face – on Friday. It is still anyone’s guess if Apple with approve the app … we did the best we could without having target hardware in-house, so there are any number of things we might [...]

Long Distance Runners

Friday, March 26th, 2010

Tune Runner has been in the market for about a month and distinct cultures are starting to develop around the game. There are players making a specialty of playing one particular artist’s tunes — like “minnttz,” who you will find near the top of most Lady Gaga songs. There are the monomaniacs, like the mysterious [...]

Beat The Developers!

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

While you may desire to thrash us with truncheons, that’s not what this is about. Fans wishing to do us bodily harm should check out FaceFighter … … but for the rest of you hoping to prove your superiority to Appy Entertainment at our own game — Zombie Pizza — then step right up to [...]

MJ

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

(Editor’s note: Today at Appy Place, Project Director Emmanuel Valdez shares his personal reminiscences of the late Michael Jackson) On the day of his memorial at Staples Center, I thought it would fitting to pay tribute to the one and only Michael Jackson. I was fortunate to work with Michael on a videogame called Ready [...]

Saturday, May 30th, 2009

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 [...]
