this is a cute tilt and shift game where your little character has to reach higher and higher heights by collecting gems and special items to make your way up into the far reaches of space. i reviewed a similar concept game earlier called apple and monster which is equally entertaining. really like the music and illustrations, but the comic sans font could be updated.

i think one of the first streaming radio apps i have reviewed. it’s got a unique take on presenting the stations by providing artistic and illustrative creations for the interstitial screens. its a very freeform assortment with lots of random and eclectic audio streams for you to explore, incl. the likes of Ichiban Rock ‘n’ Soul.
