Today's Best Apps: Artistic Flow And Stellar Quest

September 29, 2013
The App Store takes delivery of hundreds of new apps per day. The overwhelming scene makes it possible to easily overlook an exciting game, valuable productivity suite, etc. However, we have a solution. Today’s Best Apps tackles this problem by providing you with a handpicked and tested list of apps that are truly worth your consideration each and everyday. Remember: Even though in-app purchases typically require your iTunes Store password for processing, you can further prevent them and other unauthorized actions by enabling local restrictions using the passcode locked iOS parental controls

Universal:

Stellar Quest by Microtek Corporation (Free, 21.3 MB): Drift into a simple state of challenging entertainment with this cosmic-themed Zuma-style game. Increasingly tough, your task is to eliminate the objects by matching three or more before the chain reaches the exit. Adding a little bonus fun and difficulty, the path includes wormhole-like tunnels to keep you alert. In addition, the objects are stars, planets, and the SUn rather than just plain old colored balls. The game features 2.5-D graphics, pleasant soundtrack, single finger control, as well as Game Center achievements and leaderboard.

Artistic Flow by Florian Dana ($3.99, 34.4 MB): If you're an artist, especially one skilled in touchscreen drawing, then this particle-based painting app will open the door to a new expressive style. Every swipe over the black canvas creates a streak of glowing faint lines. However, the luminescence is somewhat unique compared to most other apps. These faint brush strokes continue spreading after application, creating an interesting weave of color. In some circumstances, the effect looks as if it's bleeding light, like carefully stripping away paint from a brightly lit window. The app features a calm soundtrack, supports single finger or multi-touch input, provides a full range color picker, offers a cover clearing tool, and includes a built-in screen capture tool to easily save your masterpieces to the iOS camera roll.
