If you haven't already seen this, there's a sticky thread about packing your game into a .love: https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=451 I don't know if they're still updated, but there's some distribution tools in here, they're meant to automate the boring parts: https://github.com/love2d-comm...

Oh, and using LuaJIT's FFI you can load library binaries like .DLL on Windows and .SO on Android / Linux, as seen here: https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=223319#p223319 You can build those binaries with C++ and a C extern interface, and use them in your Löve programs later. See this: https:/...

Not saying that you shouldn't learn C++, only you can know what's important for you.
But for you to consider learning C# instead. This would let you use Godot, Unity etc.

And C# is much closer to C++ than Lua is, so you will be closing the distance in any case.

Actually, f*** it, let's go all out.
There's no better way to test nearest-neighbor filtering than some parallax scrolling with a very subtle decay.

@ddabrahim can you test this? preview.gif The "sprite.png" image is this: sprite.png The main.lua code is this: local sprite local spriteX = 170 local pixelCanvas function love.load() love.window.setMode(640, 400) -- Twice the pixel art canvas size. love.graphics.setDefaultFilter('nearest'...

I suggest creating a new folder / project just to stress-test these things out in isolation.
If you can get them to work, then you know the problem is somewhere else in your code

Actually, I could do with some help for it - currently the lighting is very smooth, and I'd rather it's pixellated and alligned with the texture, which could help with optimising if its at it's native resolution, however short of rendering each texture to a canvas every frame, I can't think of a go...

That's okay. If ZeroBrane is using the latest official release of Löve, 11.5, then as you noticed it won't have love.keyboard.isModifierActive. But using LuaJIT's FFI module, you can create a backport of love.keyboard.isModifierActive directly in a Lua script, like this: io.stdout:setvbuf('no') loca...

https://love2d.org/wiki/love.keyboard.isModifierActive Nice, didn't know about that one. Up to this moment it looks to be in the Löve 12.0 development branch, the source is this: https://github.com/love2d/love/blob/12.0-development/src/modules/keyboard/sdl/Keyboard.cpp#L88-L107 @Silver_Wolf what ar...
