iPhone:

Parachute Rescue ($1.99 -> Free): Rescue the people jumping out of the helicopters above by tapping on them to deploy their parachutes, and then tilt your device side to side to move the ship and have them land on it. Boxes fall from the sky as well, and you can take them out by firing your ship's cannons. The game features OpenFeint integration.
Parachute Rescue is available for free for an undisclosed amount of time. It has a three-star rating, and a total of five ratings.
Shady Puzzle: Super Awesome Compilation Edition ($.99 -> Free): A simple puzzle game where you must shade in a specific number of blocks in each column and row. You must shade in the exact number of squares, never exceeding, in order to complete a level. The game features 156 puzzles, doodle art, and last but not least, Game Center integration.
Shady Puzzle is available for free today only (9/14). It has a four-star rating, and a total of 20 ratings.
Moxie 2 ($.99 -> Free): A unique and relaxing word game where you must form as many words as you can from 64 letter tiles to obtain the highest possible score. The game doesn’t feature a timer like many other word games, so you can take your time. Once you create a word in one of the three open lines, you must keep adding letters to the word or keep changing it to sustain your point chain. If you create an invalid word, you will lose points and have to start the chain again. Letters can be passed on, but you only have a limited number of tiles, so it is to your advantage to use them all.
Moxie 2 is available for free for a very limited time. It has a four-and-a-half-star rating, and a total of 39 ratings.
Negative Me ($.99 -> Free): A photography app that converts your images into negatives by applying a filter. You can take your own photo or import one from your Camera Roll; and once created, share your image via Facebook or email. It features an easy to use UI, split screen mode where only half of your image turns negative, and adjustable brightness and contrast.
Negative Me is available for free for an undisclosed amount of time. It has a four-and-a-half-star rating, and a total of six ratings.
iPad only:
Pebble Jump HD ($.99 -> Free): A puzzle game that seems to have been inspired by Chinese checkers. Jump pebbles over each other in order to have your final jump land on the 'home' space. The game features 100 puzzles, three levels of difficulty, a hint system, undo and redo, and five different skin choices.
Pebble Jump HD is available for free for a limited time. It has a four-star rating, and a total of 31 ratings.
