Prague, Czech Republic – Prague, Czech Republic – Independent 3D and 2D animator, Michal Barta today is thrilled to announce the release and immediate availability of Hindenburg 3DA 1.1, an update to his educational app developed exclusively for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. Welcome aboard! Just in time for the 76th Anniversary of the last flight of the Hindenburg (3-6 May 1937), Hindenburg 3DA is a 3D virtual reconstruction of the Hindenburg LZ 129 Airship. The journey continues.

LZ 129 Hindenburg (Luftschiff Zeppelin #129; Registration: D-LZ 129) was a large German commercial passenger-carrying rigid airship, the lead ship of the Hindenburg class, and the longest class of flying machine and the largest airship by envelope volume. It was designed and built by the Zeppelin Company (Luftschiffbau Zeppelin GmbH) on the shores of Lake Constance in Friedrichshafen and was operated by the German Zeppelin Airline Company (Deutsche Zeppelin-Reederei).

The airship flew from March 1936 until destroyed by fire 14 months later on May 6, 1937, at the end of the first North American transatlantic journey of its second season of service. Thirty-six people died in the accident, which occurred while landing at Lakehurst Naval Air Station in Manchester Township, New Jersey, United States. The Hindenburg was named after the late Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg (1847-1934), President of Germany (1925-1934).

Ruse, Bulgaria – Developer Bozhidar Bratoev has recently released his latest mobile game, available now on iOS for $0.99 USD. Brave Commando 1.3 is a single-platform game in which the player must conduct a soldier in his battle to defend his base from incoming helicopters and other threats.

“A modern take on a classic era, action, adventure and destruction – what more could this game have?” said a representative from Applans, professional mobile app marketing agency.

To begin Brave Commando, the user will first begin at level one – helicopters will enter the ‘shooting zone’. From here, players must either swipe far or a short distance to release one of their weapons. For example, a long streak across the screen will signal the release of a missile whilst a short streak shall release a throwing knife. These must hit the target by swiping towards it. Furthermore, they must shoot down helicopters that consequently explode once targeted.

Score count is continuously shown at the top of the screen, reminding the player of how many enemies have been killed. To the right of this is the ‘Missile’ recharge rate, essentially telling the player when another missile can be fired. To the far left is a Health count, which decreases every time that a player lets a helicopter or soldiers pass through. The user must fight the incoming waves and if the Health bar runs out, then a screen shall be displayed asking the player if they would like to replay.

There are multiple levels of Brave Commando, each bringing a new challenge and wave – soldiers can only be killed using the throwing knifes – therefore, making one level more difficult than the last. The mission is to protect the city from terror and rage that has been emitted in this global crisis. Users play as the mighty Brave Commando, protecting his base and most importantly: his city. Brave Commando is a game of speed, agility and accuracy.

Brave Commando is a single moded game with retro 2D graphics. It was designed to be playable when in a rush or whenever a spare moment is available. The single-player game can provide hours of endless fun and are currently exclusive to iOS. The app is iPhone 5 optimized and is currently only suited for iPhone and iPod touch.

“We hope that you will enjoy playing Brave Commando, it is quite a wild game and fast-paced to say the least. Initial reactions towards the game were positive and we hope we can continue this trend in the year to come – the 1.3 release is currently available for $0.99, worldwide,” stated Bratoev.

* Play as the Brave Commando
* Fight the ongoing war in this 2D platformer
* Shoot helicopters and soldiers to increase the score
* Use two weapons, tilt to move and swipe to aim

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation)
