Sleipnir

Sleipnir is a free browser by Fenrir Inc. for Windows and the Mac, and nobile versions are available for the iOS, Android and Windows Phone. While it isn’t as well known as the others in the market, it is actually very good and has a lot of things going for it. Among them are tabs that can be arranged in multiple ways for your laptop, widescreen or other screens. You can also do search, drag, close, refresh and other functions with your mouse, and that’s just for starters.

Futurelight: EP

Starting off with a song that will surely leave you stomping your feet, Futurelight’s EP is the type of musical package that keeps it short and sweet yet satisfying. With the band’s music being described as a mix between The Who, Arctic Monkeys and Franz Ferdinand, it is not hard to imagine the band playing in big arenas with the kind of sound they are carrying.

Gladiators: Call of Arena

Gladiators: Call of Arena from Zhao Haoyang is an action strategy game that takes you back to the time of the gladiators in ancient Rome. Here you’ll need to pick and train heroes to help you become the most powerful gladiator. For a mobile game it’s quite challenging as you’ll need to fine tune their skills and get more equipment to help then.

Google Sky Map App

Google Sky Maps uses your phone's orientation tools to give you an accurate representation of the stars and planets on your screen. Point your phone at the sky, then learn what constellations are visible. It uses a combination of GPS, compass and accelerometer technology, allowing you to navigate the night sky and find stars and constellations (even from inside as you lay in your bed at night).

Chronology: Time Changes Everything

Chronology: Time Changes Everything from Osao is a puzzle platformer that makes great use of time travel, something that’s not properly used in many puzzle games. You control the Snail and the Inventor, switching between when required and together they have to solve a number of very interesting and challenging puzzles.

Billy Wallace and the Virginia Blues as The Folkamines: Expect the Wurst

Billy Wallace and the Virginia Blues is spearheaded by well, Billy Wallace. Oftentimes, he's joined by various musicians to create his beautiful sound but his usual comrades on stage include Matt Hemingway, Tim Colina and Alex Frederick. Expect The Wurst is sort of a tribute record of sorts for The Dopamines, a pop punk band from Cincinnati, OH. Unlike punk played like the Sex Pistols, this compilation from "The Folkamines" focuses on a more mellow, indie folk vibe than anything else.
