The first version of Lux is now available for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch!

Search for "lux" in the app store to find it, or follow this link.

It only has 1 map and limited AIs, but it's a start. We'll be adding more features soon...

just downloaded and played it.......are there any shortcuts for playing? I noticed holding out the country puts all the armies in 5 at a time. Anything else?

I hear a rumor that the motion-sensing is *amazing* and there's an easter egg: if you shake hard enough on classic, the "earthquake" motion breaks California off into the ocean.

What other unfounded rumors have you heard?

Hold down a finger and it places big army groups in bunches. Tried to optimize for iphone but keep controls simple. Feedbacks welcome.

Well I downloaded Lux for the iPhone and I love it. I can't wait to buy the DLX version. A few suggestions:

I think it would be nice if you could get some additional information/statistics during the game -- maybe if you change the iphone to portrait you would get a list of all players with their/your stats?

I think it would be nice to have some sort of achievements. Two iPhone games that do this well is MotionX Poker and Trism. Maybe "military medals" for # of wins, wins against certain opponents, # of armies on the board at the time, etc.

Some sort of leader board/online play

Thanks for a great game!

Looks cool Bar, but it's too late. The app is designed, done and released!

BarStar · Posted: Thu Oct 09, 2008 7:13 am Post subject:

Well, excuse me. I guess i fell for the application description in the app store.

"...Watch as Lux Touch goes DLX with...
- more AIs
- more maps
- more settings
- more hot graphics
- more human players
- more of your dreams come true

I must have missed the bullet point
- Done Designed and released

Any idea on how long it will be until Lux DLX hits the App Store?

I had never even heard of this game until I downloaded it a few days ago, but I'm finding myself *really* enjoying it. I'm hoping that DLX comes close to having the same level of depth that the desktop version seems to have. It seems like there's a very dedicated foundation of players here in the community as well, which is great.
