I think you can use lQuery for that, but I don't know how it works.

You can do it manually by controlling the alpha:

Code: Select all

love.graphics.setColor(255, 255, 255, a)
love.graphics.draw(something, ...)
You would change a over time.
Help us help you: attach a .love.

I can't type much from here (mobile phone) try putting the alpha in a table and using tween.lua .
When I write def I mean function.

Code: Select all

A = 255
How_long_it_will_take_in_seconds = 5

function love.update(dt)
A = A-(255/How_long_it_will_take_in_seconds*dt)
end

function love.draw()
--something with A as alpha
end
I hope that gives you a idea of how it works :D
