Revealing the brand new Days of Sail 2
Back to "serious" (a.k.a game) development business for us and it is time to reveal what we have been up to in the past year or so. The sequel to Days of Sail: Wind over Waters is the game we have been working on. The title (although still debatable) is Days of Sail 2: Venture. It will borrow simulation elements from Days of Sail: Wind over Waters but there will be a huge advancement on the gam...
Website revamped
Well folks, it's that time of the year again for new updates. We thought it'd be appropriate to change the look of the site first. It's been, oh, almost 4 years since the first post and, since we have taken an exciting new turn in our productions and our collaborations (as you will soon see), why not change our looks too? Stay tuned, very soon our new game is... setting sail for the first ti...

Crossword Fun wins an Oscar!

Posted By: admin on September 14, 2009 in News

The new version of Crossword Fun is here, fresh and hot, and promises a lot of fun, especially to movie buffs!

Following the popularity of the application, both on the hosted website and on Facebook, we have added an interesting new feature to its functionality: the inclusion of photos. What this practically means is that word definitions are now paired with a relative headshot picture that helps the crossword participant to recognize the person that the definition refers to.

To put this to work, a new category came to play: Movie Actors. Using the popular imdb.com as a source, the application selects trivia information and a photograph of an actor from a selection of over 1,500 actors and actresses and constructs the crossword definition, expecting from the player to identify the person and fill the puzzle with his/her surname. The outcome is very exciting as you can see from the screenshot below:

As always, crossword sources are automatically selected from online crawlers and the puzzler that is generated in every visit is never the same with the one before. Every refresh to the page will take you to a new puzzle to solve, so don’t hesitate, go and test your Movie Trivia knowledge and put your name up there in the Hall of Fame.

As for ourselves, we’re really excited with this new feature and are already planning some new categories to put into use. The possibilities are endless, so stay tuned!
