app id...

It would be useful to be able to find the app id string.
This way depending on the string you could enable different features programatically.
It would make generating code easier - you would just have to generate one set of object files then copy them to the specific project.
eg: com.sinistersoft.martians <-- full game
com.sinistersoft.martiansdemo <-- demo
In this example I would check for the word demo at the end of the string, if found then I would only let them play the first 3 levels. But if the package downloaded had the other id then they must have bought the complete game.

I'm myself keen on building single apk for all platforms using storedetector:
https://github.com/gideros/giderosplugins/tree/master/StoreDetector
but in your case it would allow to reuse lua code for different apks, which also sounds great.
Most probably it should also be available on ios (getting bundle ID)
