I made this for my games and thought I'd share. It's a library designed to help with events! It's very similar to what Vendetta Online has because that's what I'm used to. GitHub page with download link Usage isn't too complicated. It's nearly identical to the above link to what Vendetta does, with ...

Some video cards, especially older ones and Intel GMA chips, suffer from PO2_Syndrome . You'll have to make sure all your images have power-of-two dimensions (1024x512, etc) for them to show up on all video cards. LÖVE 0.8.0 will solve this issue by internally padding non-power-of-two images on syst...

pairs will still iterate over integer keys but the order in which it does so is not guaranteed and it will also iterate over anything else in the table, so yes, use ipairs on array-tables.

There are currently no decent GUI libraries available to use, as far as I can tell; goo is incomplete and buggy, RPG's lQuery thing is incomplete and has odd hardcoded russian bitmap fonts, and LoveUI hasn't even been updated for LÖVE 0.7.0. Hardcoding a custom UI or menu system is a pain, especiall...

It's actually 792 KB.

Did you try the first or second copy operation? I think is the correct one.

As far as I know, userdata (C/C++ functions or objects), strings, and tables are referenced, and everything else is copied. You definitely don't need to worry about it as much as you would in C++ though.

With framebuffers I recommend creating one just a little bit larger than the screen size (or the next biggest power-of-two), there's no need to draw tiles that aren't currently on the screen. You would then re-draw to the framebuffer if the tiles have changed (which won't happen very often, relative...

While there are certainly a lot of optimizations to be done in order for LÖVE to take full advantage of the GPU, it is definitely not the least performant 2d framework out there.

How is that different from doing
?

I do a final optimization step in my code by doing the above, but localizing them to key blocks of code.
