Re: New subforum for libraries?

Another thing that I've thought of that it would be nice if there is maybe a topic or something for projects that aren't really fully finished, more like prototypes or part of a project you're working on, that you think others might find useful, but you do not want to put effort in making it a full...

Re: Square Invaders 1.1

At a basic try, I like the game a lot. I think it could use a bit of variety with some of the enemies. I would recommend a low number of easy-to-hit enemies who rush at the player character in an attempt to collide with low damage. Their speed would have to be faster than the movement rate of the pl...

[Solved] Splitting a LUA file into smaller pieces

I want to split my "main.lua" file into smaller bits, one for each HUMP gamestate. "Require" loads a library, but unless I'm wrong, it doesn't append to a LUA file so that it could act in unison like a bigger file. How can I split a file into smaller pieces? Thank you.

Re: Sirocco's bizzarre adventure

I had fun playing the game. I just got stuck when I pushed a block against a wall or into a corner. I made it to level 9 without knowing about the restart feature, until I re-read your instructions.

[Solved]Loading Files from Another Folder

I'm trying to tidy up my code and files, but I'm finding that what I thought worked now doesn't. I'm just trying to load graphics from another folder. The error refers to the first line of code. Thanks for any help. local saphir_stance_anim = love.graphics.newImage("saphir_graphics/saphir_stanc...

Re: Fading to Black and Back

Well, I found one solution. Press 2 to fade to black. Press 1 to return to the image from black. It will work even if the screen is black. Edit "fade_time" to change how long it takes to fade in either direction. function love.load() timer = 0 alpha = 0 fade_time = 2 image = love.graphics....
