JavaScript game framework implementing Löve2D API ??

Hi all, I was wondering whether there is a JavaScript game framework running on Canvas or DOM or whatever that implements Löve2D API. If there is not yet, wouldn't that be cool if we start a project for this ? I just looked various JS game frameworks, but I don't like any of their APIs, to me Love2D...

Can't compile (with LuaJIT)

I was using Löve2d installed via my distro's package manager, now I decided to go with LuaJIT but I'm having trouble. Here's my configure and make output: ➜ love-0.8.0 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-luajit configure: loading site script /usr/share/site/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking for a...

Re: local vars to eliminate indexing - why do lovers do that

Thank you all for your responses,

So this is mostly about code simplicity but there are also performance reasons! I didn't know that, thanks Hexenhammer and Inny for tips about Lua interpreter internals and LuaJIT!

local vars to eliminate indexing - why do lovers do that ?

While reading some Love2D code and some Lua projects developed by lovers here I realized a pattern. When a code required indexing like this: if someTable.someField then someTable.someField:... end ... some code with more indexing like someTable.someField ... People instead use this: local field = so...

Re: TiMArU | a generic tilemap library

OK, just FYI, I could't spare my time and look into the source, but I run the .love file. And on my machine, which is a Thinkpad T510 with i5 and intel graphics with 64bit linux OS, frame rate is dropping down to 3 or 2 while moving the map. I suspect this is normal, I'm playing most of the games in...

Re: A question regarding physics and the terrain

OK, I think I have no idea how does love.physics work. If you look the .png file, the polygon is meant to be the character, and rectangle on the right side is level boundary. Why the hell does the character move into the wall ? Here's the code: (this is actually a modified version of a program someo...

Re: A question regarding physics and the terrain

Oh wow, circle shape worked surprisingly good. Now I'll try having multiple circle shapes for my body, and make left/right circles' frictions 0. I'll keep this post updated. Thanks. EDIT: So I also need multiple bodies for this, right ? I'll have multiple bodies, shapes, and fixtures ? EDIT2: Ok, so...

A question regarding physics and the terrain

Hi, I'm having a problem creating my terrain with love.physics module. I have some .png files that represent my map. When I load the map, I'm putting static bodies for each pixel representing a static block in my .png file. And I'm using rectangular shape for each block. Now, the problem is, my char...
