lux (dream.girl) is a surreal psychological horror game created in RPG Maker 2003, about a socially inept teenage boy with writer's block who uses lucid dreaming to interact with his characters. In his dreams, he falls in love with a girl he has never seen or thought of before. It is the second entry in the -UX Series.

story

Benjamin is a socially inept teenage writer who struggles with depression, loneliness, and writer’s block. 

When he decides to try lucid dreaming to figure out how to push his story forward, he meets new friends, new enemies, and his literal dream girl. 

Making certain choices will either help or hurt his relationships, and the outcome of his story.

This game is inspired by other media such as Yume Nikki, choice-driven games by Telltale Games, Greek Pygmalion, Brave New World, and CLAMP's manga.
