Re: Pong

It would be great to return to the difficulty selection once the game is over. Hard mode seems to be perfectly accurate too, but credit for not making the AI paddle constantly align itself with the ball. Good job man. Thank you so much! Nothing like the Love2D forums to encourage more practice. Tha...

Re: Pong

https://love2d.org/imgmirrur/2951Uqt.gif yes, I'm sorry about that. I am not entirely experienced in programming by any means and I obviously haven't learnt the most efficient means of using code. And I have noticed the speed change between a macbook pro and my PC. I appreciate the reply though. Ho...

Pong

Pong.love Hello everybody. I just thought I'd share pong with you guys. I am not great at programming but I am quite proud that I was able to make this without the use of any other resources besides the Love2d wiki in the expanse of 1 day.

Re: Why won't the image load?[On Windows 64bit]

Did you ever actually draw in the image or did you only define the variable that is the directory to the image? If you haven't, you can try this.

Code: Select all

function love.draw()
 love.graphics.draw(imagename, x, y)
end

Having Trouble With 2 Independent Backgrounds

Game.love In a game I am attempting to create, I plan on having a background that moves in a linear way directly in relation to the player's movement. Behind that, I plan on having a background that moves quite slowly in comparrison to the player's movement. This is to simulate a background that is...

Re: Having trouble with Arithmetic.

If you are inside a function of an object, like in the player.phsyics function, you cannot reference to the variable "player", you have to reference the variable "self". So it becomes self.x = self.x + self.xvel * dt While it is generally a good idea to use the self-shortcut, th...

Having trouble with Arithmetic.

I know that I should work on some easier things before jumping the gun and making a game but I decided to jump righ...
