So, guys, it’s out. You can buy EyeCandy #1, The Masked Marshall in “Mah Pony Must be Punished” straight from the App Store for iPhone and iPod touch.
We’ve also bagged one video review from Sakura as well as a detailed review from her Dad.
So what’s in the package. It’s an 8 page comic with a bit of humour and great style. It’s also eight pages of colouring-in book with an etch-a-sketch style erase. You can take screenshots of the Comic and print them out for later colouring with pens/crayons. You can peel away the colours and inks with a simple swipe-down so that anyone interested in learning to draw can quickly copy the pencils there and get a neat tutorial in how to draw. Plus there’s a “toy” in the Extras section which shows the pony with googly eyes and makes up to 4 different neighing sounds when shaken. You can see all of this demo’ed on the Infurious web site and you can take it from me, it involves kids like no other game. It’s educational and, best of all, fun!
All this for 59p (or $0.99). We’d really like to hear what people think, what they’d prefer and whether they’d like to see something specific on the store.
And there’s more. It’s going to be monthly at first and we’ve got some top notch artists and writers who are producing content for the platform already so keep your eyes peeled!
I have a problem with this application ! It is ridiculously addictive. It is cool, it shows of how great the phone is BUT the kids totally love it and I have not seen my phone for the last hour !!! 🙂
We’ve got some great additions planned.
When you consider the price of an iPod touch plus the price of these apps and the attention they draw from the kids, why the heck not!!!! They’re not going to be more expensive than a Nintendo DS when you consider the content!
