Weekly Round Up: December 7th – December 14th
Whoops! I went and spaced the round up this week, I was a little too social on the weekend and completely forgot about it. This one will just be a bit longer than normal and the next will definitely be shorter, awesome! This week we reviewed an awesome new third party iOS keyboard that could take the record for worlds fasted touchscreen keyboard, we also talked about the SteelSeries Stratus XL controller coming to Apple Retail stores near you and a bunch more awesome game news and updates that happened this week.
Nintype: The One Keyboard to Rule Them All
One keyboard to rule them all, One keyboard to find them, One keyboard to bring them all and in the darkness bind them… Nintype is an incredibly revolutionary new keyboard from long time iOS developer Jormy that helps you speed through texts at over 100 words per minute! It was just released a few days ago on the App Store for $4.99 and it is most definitely worth the price. Don’t let the overwhelming amount of customization or crazy awesome animations deter you, it can be dumbed down to look almost exactly like the iOS keyboard but with all the amazing features still there hidden beneath the surface. As someone who has never been able to fully grasp the use case of swipe keyboards mainly because of a few jailbreak tweaks like SwipeSelection and SwipeExpander, I have fallen in love with Nintype.

Originally launched on November 17th, 1995, Team17\'s infamous Worms franchise is celebrating its 19th birthday with a huge sale across many platforms including iOS, Mac, and Android. Despite the birthday being almost a week ago, the sale still appears to be continuing on in some places. As of right now we’re unsure how much longer these special discounts will last for, however, it doesn’t hurt to take a look just in case.
