Game Description

Flux is a game where you charge and build a network of power nodes purely through the use of intuitive clickless gestures. As power increases in the network, so does the threat of the fluid like energy entity dispersing through the network, known as the Flux. You must direct the Flux, while growing the network. Watch Out! The pace of the Flux is based on songs selected from your personal music library. This means you will need to play your best when the song tempo is quickest and the volume is loudest.

Progress

Flux is currently going through a re-visiting. We were not able to continue development on our original engine, so this called for an overhaul. We are ramping up redevelopment using the Irrlicht Engine. This will give us a chance to build on all of the feedback we got from the original version, and do it with extra care as we have more time and flexiblity now. We are hoping to have a downloadable version available, but we do not currently know when. Please check back for updates, or email info@log2n.ca with your specific questions.
