Zurich Pizza Pavement Drawing
Last time I wanted to share a personal achievement with you guys I wrote a post sharing my excitement after publishing my first iPhone Application. Unfortunately, judging from your reactions – that didn’t’ turn out so well ;). I want to introduce my second app today, but being smarter this time – let me show you an illusion first! After all, this is what you came here for in the first place, right? Let’s see what Julian Beever has been up to lately. His latest drawing was done in Zurich, depicting a giant 3D pizza. Like it?
Concerning the iOS app I talked about earlier, it’s an educational didactic game for kids aged 3+. It works on both iPhone and iPad, including latest models with HD graphics. The starting idea my friend Lovro and I had, was to produce something that would help kids improve their logical thinking, learn them to recognise shapes, as well as refine their fine motor skills.
I don’t want to spam you any further here, but I’d really appreciate if you would spare a second and take a glimpse at our new game, hopefully making a comment telling me what you make of it. This specially goes for parents and teachers of pre-shool children owning an iOS device. We are very proud of our achievement, specially of graphics and design which we did all by ourselves!
If you have a moment check the app’s website, and if you like it you can get it on Apple’ app store under the name of “Gator’s Car Repair for Kids”

PortablePastimes #3: Last show for the Season Done!
Nothing overly special to note from this show. Unlike the last 3 though a large number of my games sold. It is very strange as to the diversity of he shows. Especially considering the last 3 have all been in a 5 mile radius of each other. We are happy though we paid for the table and made bit as well. so it is a good show. We decided we will be looking into at least one maybe two spring shows and then due some more next year. I am looking forward to knocking out a large run of my games over the winter so I have some stock. Each time I make them up I learn a few more tricks to make the building just a bit easier.
Hope all of you that are selling out there have been having a good season and continue to do so. I am now turning my attention to a number of Christmas gifts that need some work. Hope you all have a safe and productive season in and out of the shop.
