LÖVE

Maybe this question should be addressed on the wiki, looks like it's asked often enough: https://www.google.com/search?q=protect ... love2d.org

I would wish to such page to encourage not to protect the source though.

I recently started a topic related to that: https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=87910

Jesus, a switch statement going up to magic number 4099, not to mention the lack of any comment in most of the cases and the complexity nested in some of them.

If it works, it ain't stupid
And even if it is, the game's released, while others are trying to write clean code and will never release their games.

Yeah, the game code doesn't needs to be good, it just needs to function. At some point it also needs to be fast, but at no point it needs to be elegant.
