Boasting 10 hours of gameplay, tons of voice acting, arcade space ship dogfighting and RPG elements, Galaxy on Fire 2 sounds like it only improves on the first game. Graphically, the game is beautiful, and it’s on sale for its release today, with the price jumping $2 more in the near future.

Summit – Basecamp (iPhone) $3.99

Here’s an app designed specifically for people who use the project management software system Basecamp, which allows people on a team to communicate and complete tasks. Summit interacts with your Basecamp account to keep you connected to your work wherever you are.

The handy little app seems to be primarily useful for keeping track of updates to projects, but it also includes the ability to make changes on the fly when you need to, or to complete or re-open Basecamp’s “Milestone” tasks so that other team members can see what you’re up to as well. You can also send and receive messages to Basecamp users through the app.

Cars iManager (iPhone) $1.99

Great for anyone who owns more than one car, Cars iManager lets you store a ton of information on your vehicles to help keep them in great shape.

You can plug in just about anything about your car and Cars iManager will either hang onto the information for you, or generate statistics about your car so you can monitor how it performs. Keep track of your insurance information in case of an emergency, or just enter stats from your last fill-up for a dynamic calculation of how your car is handling its gas mileage. You can keep track of needed service and even store information about your last trip to the shop alongside your favorite garages and mechanics.
