love.run is a godsend. I prefer doing things in frames with framecaps anyways, so that's... pretty awesome stuff. love.audio will be amazingness. THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU. LuaJIT is an interesting idea. I've actually been looking at that and considering suggesting it to you guys, but lua's already p...

I think you can use setColor(255, 255, 255, alpha) to do alpha-blended textures.

I second muku's proposition. LOVE is already kinda meant to work on modern processors, so programmer vs. computation time-wise, it's probably better to specify a single pixel-to-meter scale and take the negligible computation hit than to have the programmer work out values in meters themselves.

Easy fix. You don't put the whole folder in the zip: you put the contents of the folder in the zip.

wanna post a zip of something for us to check?

Well, here's my thoughts on the file browser: it's a very high-level operation, so introducing it in the API would be a bit like giving the API a trojan horse (in the classical Trojan War sense). As of right now, LOVE is designed as a game engine that gives you the lower-level tools to make your own...

Well, I mean, we don't know whether or not retro platformers would feel wrong with sophisticated physics because it's not a very well-explored area. Or you know, they wouldn't be retro platformers, anyways. Anyways, I figured since Box2D is there, why not give it a whirl? I imagine a retro game with...

@retroman: Well, I mean, technically, they did exist back in the 'old days.' After all, even Super Mario Bros. had a sophisticated physics engine (for its time, anyways). But physics engines have evolved to a state where they don't make assumptions like 'we're only gonna have these kinds of obstruct...

I forgot to mention that to be more physically correct and consistent, you have to use velocity = velocity - accel * dt instead of velocity = velocity - accel so yeah, timing will be off unless you fix this line. Also, the following discussion will assume the above: The timing should (now) be relati...

In your main.lua, you would require the library file(s) in question.
Also, shouldn't this be in Support?
