Re: Coin boy! Second LOVE2D Game, advice wanted!
For those interested in the controls, "A" is left and "D" is right. The game is interesting. I suggest making the coins fall down slower at first and then speed up as time goes on, sort of like Tetris, if you have ever played that. Also, I would appreciate something like a life m...

Re: ZeroBrane Studio Lua IDE v0.70 is out
I love this software. Is there a guide or FAQ on how to use the debug feature? I started with Java and the Eclipse IDE, but I never got far enough as far as debugging one's own software.paulclinger wrote: As several users already noted, ZeroBrane Studio v0.70 is out: http://studio.zerobrane.com.

Re: I might be making a tool to generate LÖVE executables
In Ubuntu Linux, you can open an .EXE with Archive Manager, and BOOM: system files. Making a Windows executable should only be done for convenience, in my limited experience.Plu wrote:You can reconstruct the .love file from the .exe in minutes if you know what you're doing

Re: [Poll] Choose a graphics style
How can a non living thing be evil? I think it is what it represents. It's the same reason why people outside the United States of America burn the U.S. flag. It doesn't hurt the U.S., but it makes someone feel better. You could also bring up politics, faith, or abortion, and someone will get mad. ...

Re: Communication amongst team members
Hat Cat was actually a lot like this for a long while. We both always had an ambition to finish it, but when we didn't meet in person development just stopped. If you can't meet, I'd say find some other activity to do together, just to get talking. Playing Minecraft while Skyping works for example,...

I like the music in the examples. It makes the environment seem surreal. I also like the weather effects.

Re: Trying to Get Rid of Globals
The rule of thumb is to make variables occupy as small scope as possible, but not smaller. So, if you place local back_ground = love.graphics.newImage("background01.png") as your first line of main.lua file, that makes it accessible only within this file. But as this is your only file (no...

Re: Trying to Get Rid of Globals
How would you transfer this data, if not via globals? Well, my approach so far has been that if it doesn't make the software crash, make it "local". Just want to add that you can totally have local variables that are accessed from both love.load and love.draw, like this: local mpgisquote ...

Trying to Get Rid of Globals
I do not consider myself a professional coder, but I pass it by as a hobby. To my understanding, it is standard etiquette to avoid global declarations. To my limited knowledge, I have made some globals into locals. I am also aware that my software needs work, but I'm not yet ready to focus on animat...

Re: Poll monday: AMD or Nvidia
I chose AMD when building my computer since it supports Linux more than nVidia. I'm not saying that nVidia doesn't work well, and I have used it in other computers with Linux builds. It is just that Linus Torvalds himself has bad-mouthed nVidia. I'm very happy with my present setup since I use Windo...
