Found a way to make it faster. Committed to github. See https://github.com/meric/loveui.love . Hmmm, https://github.com/meric/loveui.love/blob/fa2fd21e0f0e41cefddba57090f481113bb517ab/loveui/graphics/love.lua#L41 Instead of creating a pixmap each time you draw an arc you could use a polygon to draw...

point to line distance, taken from http://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/589720 and converted to love: local function distance(x1, y1, x2, y2) return math.sqrt(((x1 - x2) * (x1 - x2)) + ((y1 - y2) * (y1 - y2))) end function love.draw() local x, y = love.mouse.getX(), love.mouse.getY() local x1, y1 = 1...

Thanks for the heads up on the pixBuf! I just read on another thread that framebuffers may not work on some computers.. I dunno - I tried your version of the program, and the framebuffer works here on an intel GMA4500 integrated card, although it ran a bit slower than mine; 7FPS vs 20FPS That may b...

AFAICT in your example you only need to initialize the pixBuf once, no need to create it again and again. pixBuf = love.image.newImageData( 512, 256 ) Calling that only once won't give you any noticeable speed up though. IMHO löve is not very well suited for this kind of old school effect because, a...

OMFG!!!! EPIC SONG IS EPIC!!!!

Not long ago I was presented to the lövely song from January's smash hit "Noah's ark" (by TechnoCat) http://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2341 (authored by a guy " http://8bc.org/members/Maxo+01/ "). I really like chiptunes but there is so much stuff out there that it...

Hi, this is the game I'm currently working on. It is based in the classic columns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columns_(video_game)).

Not sure how I'm gonna finish it though :p.

Greets!

Hello, I just want to share a link to this article:

http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaModuleFunctionCritiqued

Basically using lua's 5.1.4 module function is no longer recommended and will be removed from 5.2

This reasoning builds in the idea that I do not expect the end user to have his own love binary to use my games (i.e. I won't be shipping .love files). When I finish my game I plan to provide binaries to the end public, that means that the public will have to trust me when they run the software. Do...

Hi, I don't think it will be worth to try to build any "security features" in löve. To me, love is a tool to build games as much a GCC and libsdl are. Nobody would try to make GCC "secure" by removing the ability to perform system calls in a C program. The same goes with löve. Th...
