LOVE2D Lua Performance

Hi! I'm new here, and I found on the Internet this website about the LOVE game engine. It seems easy and very nice, and it uses Lua for scripting. I know that languages like C++ and Go are very fast because they are compiled. Other languages such as Lua, Java and Python, are interpreted. LOVE2D expo...

Thank you :awesome: :awesome:

I don't understand the using of RGB in LOVE

Hi,
I've just bought an e-book titled "LOVE for Lua Game Programming".
I've read some page and I found this code as example:

Why the first line has 4 numbers (RGB is identified by only 3 numbers)?
Thank you!
