Re: Are there plans to enlarge "image" with more functions?

I'm wondering why there isn't the possibility to draw on a backbuffer first. AFAICT, you always draw to the back buffer. Then LÖVE swaps the buffers for you automatically upon return from your draw() function. Are there plans to make it possible to create and edit images? That would be nice for ima...

Re: Idea - Distorting Sprites

when it comes to it, if i need to do 2D on a pc love is a most favorable option, if I want to write an app, I go elsewhere, if I get into 3d ill choose something else, its no big thing I'm glad you're so satisfied without the graphical features other 2D game programmers want from LÖVE.

I've responded to this several times, and people keep reiterating this idea that it will complicate LÖVE.

Does anyone here actually care to respond to my orthogonal API thesis?

Re: (help) how do you compile your game to be a double click exe

What are you trying to say? I think he's saying you can substitute the Windows executable for the corresponding ".love" ZIP archive. I don't know for sure, but if ZIP is anything like the compression formats I'm familiar with, they're fairly tolerant of having extra junk in the file that ...

It is, but this all gives you wrong values for draw functions. So, use pixels, or CAMERA.
