The public source for the iOS game Empous: Control the World. Empous is an iOS game I created while in Grad School. Empous is based off Risk and is a turn based strategy game. Since it is turn based, Empous using a client server model to keep all the games in sync. The server code is written using Django. If I had more time, I would have used something with stronger typing like Play! (Java/Scala).

Empous was built using cocos2d and features Facebook and non-Facebook logins. The game is now removed from the App Store mostly due to lack of interest and constant server costs on EC2.

The code is provided as is as a learning tool. I have removed all identifiable information like server usernames and passwords. All the sized assets are supplied but none of the original Photoshop/Illustrator files are not in the repo.

Below you will find some minimumal instructions to get a local copy of Empous working (mostly setting up a local django server). If you have questions feel free to reach out to me.

There are READMEs in the server and ioscode that will help you run Empous. This repo is a copy of my private repos so I make no guarantees that the install instructions are 100% correct.
