The App Store is a constant source of new an entertaining Apps and Thursdays are the perfect day to grab some new fare.

Topping my list of notable new releases for Thursday is easily the Crescent Moon Games’ published top-down racer, Slingshot Racing. With its unique one-touch sling-shot physics mechanic and low 99¢ launch price, this should be and instant buy.

Free to play endless runner, Subway Surfers will have you hover board surfing through the subway as you try to escape from the grumpy Inspector and his Pitbull dog….need I say more? prefer your skateboard with wheels, then check out Miniclip’s level-based Extreme Skater

Adrenaline junkies, I’m not through with you yet. Check out the aerial antics of the Sky Gnome:Battles. Or let Chillingo Ltd take you on some high-flying adventures with Tiny Plane™ and AirMail™.

Moving from the mechanical to the mythical we see the arrival of the Dragon Evolution,which allows players to create their own dragon and do battle. For RPG fans, there is Gimka’s sequel,
Defender Chronicles II: Heroes of Athelia.

Those of you looking for a bit of arcade fare, may want to check out Bee Leader which will have you nuts for nectar or perhaps the confection obsession of Pastry Panic will fit the bill (on a 50% off launch sale).

Last, but certainly not least, SEGA brings its popular Virtua Tennis franchise to the iOS platforms with Vitua Tennis Challenege.
