Re: What to use if not github?

Self-hosting? Like, host your own instance of gitlab as gnome devs do with their gnome.gitlab Thank you for the suggestion I like that GitLab can be installed locally although it doesn't appear to be 100% free/open source. Running your own Git server is an attractive option for people like me who a...

Re: What to use if not github?

I have used Bitbucket, but it is not better in any way. It would be good if there was a decentralized option as I don't trust the large enterprise solutions like GitHub.

Re: Large number of unused assets in game directory still slows down game

Hello and welcome to the forums. You need to learn how to use profiling to find bottlenecks in your application. The profiler runs alongside your game and tracks the performance of your functions. Check out my GitHub for a free and open source profiler written in pure Lua. LuaJIT has its own profile...

Re: How to Scale UI Dynamically?

From the animated .gif I see that the UI is using units that are independent of the camera. The camera viewport appears to be locked based on the height of the frustum while the UI sizing is in pixels. So you want to lock your scene size to the height of the window (for example, make sure the window...

Re: ChatGPT proposes and creates a game in love2d ( artificial intelligence scares me )

If you put a license in your GitHub repository people will trust that you have the rights over the provided source code. Moreover the license file points to the individual/entity who is responsible in the event that there are disputes regarding the origin of the code. This is a question about respon...

Re: Love2D builder

Yes, using "static" instead of "stream" is one possible solution although it is not ideal because static mode preloads the entire audio file in memory which is slow. Please use the following repository: https://github.com/Davidobot/love.js Also note that my version can run games ...

Re: Love2D builder

Thank you for using the lovebuilder/love js One problem I noticed is that the music does not play properly: It stops after one second of playback. This is an issue with the compat/release version. It is a known bug according to Davidobot. It has a nice feature: You can upload a .love file and test i...

Re: Self-hosting Löve2d Environment for Educational Purposes

It is an interesting idea although most children that I know are not going to be interested in learning to use a CLI. Kids like colorful graphics not text terminals. Regarding your source code - are coming from a language like C++? I noticed your dequeue.lua file which is basically a wrapper of a ta...
