Scary Chick Comic Reader

Scary Chick Comic ReaderIn addition to adding some new features to Scary Chick: Fortune Teller, I have been developing a new app called Scary Chick Comic Reader where you can get access to the Scary Chick comics formatted specifically for the iPhone and iPad. Best of all, this new app is free! Never miss another comic.

Who is Scary Chick?
Her likes are pizza, cold blustery days, l33t speek, and tormenting those around her. Dislikes include those around her. Her greatest hope is world domination. And her greatest fear is the school psychologist.

Join Scary Chick on her journey through the comic insanity that is life.

Please Note: This app requires an internet connection to access the comic strip.

Available on the App Store

Version 1.2 Now Available

I've been working very hard on getting the new update out this week. Version 1.2 has a redesigned menu on the main screen and an brand new feature called the Magic Question Ball. The Magic Question Ball allows you to ask Scary Chick questions. Her responses are contextually aware so, for instance, if you ask, "Where should I go on vacation?" she gives you an answer based on location and if you ask something like "when should I ask my boss for a promotion?" she will give you a time based answer. Ask her what grade you will get in your class, what your boss thinks of you-just have fun.  There are quite a few easter eggs hidden in this feature so have fun looking for them.

Notable Features: 
-Added new Magic Answer Ball where Scary Chick responds to your questions 
-Added a natural language parser to ask Scary Chick more than just Yes and No questions 
-Sound Effects added 

Minor Fixes & Additions 
-Minor code optimization for speed and stability 
-Improvements to grammar 
-Added additional content to the Fortune and Insult engines 
-Added additional sentence variety 
-Updates to visuals

Scary Chick: Fortune Teller Testimonial

Scary Chick: Fortune Teller Now Available

I am very excited to announce that Scary Chick: Fortune Teller is now available on iTunes for $0.99.

After a long absence, Scary Chick has returned and she now has the power to look through space and time to make prognostications about your future. Sometimes vague, sometimes oddly specific, and always sarcastic, she will give you the information you need to meet Fate on your own terms.

Version 1.0 includes the Fortune and Insult Engine to ensure unique and original fortunes every time you consult her. Share your favorite fortunes with your friends on Facebook or email them to your best friend or your worst enemies. Or, you can tweet random statements to your followers on twitter with the suggested hash tag #MyFutureSucks.

But that's not all: I really hope you enjoy this app, and I am already working on updates to make the app even better with some really awesome features which I will be anouncing here soon. But why wait? Give me your opinion on some of the features you would like to see in upcoming versions of the Scary Chick: Fortune Teller iPhone app on our Facebook poll. Make sure to "like" the page to get anouncements on your wall.

Or not. It's cool.
