Stay Bright: Lumi Hits XBLIG

Lumi_XBLIGKydos Studio has announced the release of its beautiful puzzle platformer Lumi onto the Xbox Live Indie Games section of the 360′s Live service.

The dev’s third effort on the channel (creators of MyBand and Soul as well) has players jumping into the shoes of a puffball with big eyes trying to restore light to her home planet, which currently is being plagued and consumed by an evil force. The gameplay brings both the familiar and strange as it consists both of collecting fireflies and using a new magnetism-based mechanic that gives players the ability to navigate through levels using different colored hubs. Some fresh new ideas plugged into the platformer equation.

The title runs the 400 MS Points ($5) and, as comes standard on the channel, a trial version is available for free to download and try out. Check out the Lumi launch trailer below.
