## What is Pumpkin Pal?

Ready, set, carve!  Turn your iPad into a big, spooky, full-screen jack-o-lantern. Then pop it in your window to impress the neighbors.

>> Simple, easy-to-use interface.

>> Choose from four different pumpkins of varying shapes and sizes.

>>  Create as many jack-o-lanterns as you like! Your work is automatically saved, so you can go back to edit or delete them at any time.

>> Scale and rotate the 18 custom shapes to build the pumpkin of your dreams.

>> Not happy with the provided shapes? Make your own! "Carve" into the pumpkin by drawing shapes with your finger.

>> Unlimited undos and a reset button allow you to take back any cuts you don't like. Try THAT with a real pumpkin!

>> Show off your creations in a full-screen display mode. Use a slider to dim the lights, going from a well-carved pumpkin to a spooky, glowing face in the dark -- perfect for displaying on Halloween.

>> Pumpkins guaranteed not to rot on Nov. 1, so go nuts and create your own designs for any holiday. (Who doesn't appreciate a nice Groundhog's Day-o-lantern?)

### 5/5 — It's the great pumpkin at last!!

*2010-10-25*

This is a great pumpkin carving app! You can use the template features or free hand your own. Just draw on the pumpkin and 
Wa la! You are carving a pumpkin which will save and display on the home wall. Great work by the developers of this app. By far the best pumpkin app out there and worth the money for kids and adults.

### 5/5 — Perfect Pumpkin

*2010-10-20*

What a terrific app! The art is fantastic and makes great use of the big iPad screen. My family are all huge fans of Halloween, so this app is right up our alley...and we've already "carved" pumpkins on it that would make the Great Pumpkin proud.

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2010-10-20*

This is a great app. Lots of fun, and my kids and I love it. The artwork is beautiful.

Happy Halloween!
