Combining love.graphics.print text strings?

To combine text strings, I always use string.format, which is very slow and will cut my framerate in half when doing a lot of printing with it. For example: love.graphics.print(string.format("%s%s%","variable:",var),10,10) is how I use it, and I'm wondering if there is an easier...

Re: My First Game, Snake

I really like the font & tile style. The gameplay is pretty standard to Snake, but great job on the graphics. I get 60 fps, so I'm assuming you are using some kind of FPS lock or v-sync.

Great job.

Re: falla (formerly noname)

I've come up with a name and added a lot of neat stuff. Plus I have an .exe version, for super easy use!

falla (formerly noname)

I call it falla because, you catch falling things. It's a pretty simple game with some nice simple graphics, although a little too simple maybe, and a repeating chiptuney song. HCuvP.png falla.love - open with love.exe falla.exe - unzip and run the .exe space: progress through menus mouse: drag the ...

Re: World Aviator!

I saw the example about issues with images that aren't divisible by 2, I could use that to fix the white boxes issue.

But for the getPixel, I don't really understand how it works. Would I call it in the update function?

Re: World Aviator!

Four remarks: You can't steer and change the throttle at the same time, perhaps some elseifs that are supposed to be ifs? You can't see yourself on the minimap. Being able to land anywhere isn't as good for my ego when I land on an airstrip. The plane "blip" doesn't indicate a direction. ...

World Aviator!

World Aviator is a little top-down flight game I've been working on for the past two weeks. It has landing, crashing, refueling & two maps! But it also doesn't have a rotating plane image, sounds, a working speedbreak or a map changing menu. It still needs a lot of work! Controls: A to turn righ...
