I guess it was too late and I didn't understand what you were asking and just assumed you wanted to use "menu:Open()" but i t was failing for you. And then I did a really poorly executed test and gave you bad advice.

When Lua reads your file, it reads from start to finish in order. When you are calling menu:Open (commented out) in your love.update function, it hasn't yet read the function menu:Open. There are two ways around this. You can declare the menu:Open variable above love.update, or you can move the enti...

I see that you have a console start with the game; you'd probably be better off printing the error to the console using print instead of love.graphics.print. The way I understand love.graphics.print is that it (like any other code that draws) has to be called form love.draw -- so unless you store it...

Take a look at anim8 (linked in the original response); it's a library for doing that and the tutorials will probably help.

Drawing order matters. What you draw last is on top. So, you want to draw the background first and the buttons last. Animations are a more difficult subject, since you're new to this you probably want to use an existing library like anim8 . But the very basics are that you want to have a bunch of im...

That looks like how 3d graphics were being rendered when my video card burned out (as proposed above). When in software rendering mode it would work fine, but using the video card it would appear that way.

I would totally do it ...

if I wasn't a working father and husband who is going on vacation this weekend.

But good luck to you guys.

I used color, just for you.

I knew I'd seen something about developing a minimum set of bounding boxes based on tiles; turns out it's here in the snippets section.

If you were able to use this to translate your box-per-tile to a single box stretching over all contiguous tiles that would alleviate your 'stickiness'.

Very cool.

Thanks for letting me know!

Sorry, I meant the solution in this post, not your original. The one you called 'jumpy'.
