Ah, that stinks. Sorry about that
The rewrite of the core I'm doing will probably no longer be using canvases, but we'll see.

pauljessup: Unfortunately I can't run your project because my computer doesn't support Canvases. But that's because I have a relatively old computer (still running Windows XP and I don't even have a separate "graphics card", only the default thing on the default motherboard).
you should get a new computer its totally worth it, but i still support the idea of not having canvas as the main drawing thing in löve games the idea is still good but only as an optional option.

Well, I came to Love from programming with Allegro in C++, and in that using an offscreen rendering thing (canvases, etc) was no big thing. And it gave me a lot of awesome flexibility. I do kinda miss it.

I agree. But I'm not telling you what to do, I'm just saying you should at least
consider it. You could build yourself one for about £400 or so. Maybe even £250 and put Linux on it. I'd say you'd benefit from it
But up to you

Not everyone has that money to throw around...
I'm probably going to cut out canvases. When someone said old computers couldn't do it, I was picturing OLD computers. Like Pentuim 1's that were running a slim version of Linux or something.
