Variables are local to their scope, which is loosely "their indentation level" assuming you indent your code normally. You can still make the variables local by declaring them outside of love.load, in one of two ways: local currentSlowFrames, numberOfSlowFrames function love.load() current...

Are you sure you're incrementing the variable correctly and have not mistyped the assignment? That's the only thing I can think of without looking at your code.

To do this you would need to only update every x frames, where x is the amount by which you want to slow down. For instance, if you want your game to move at 1/2 speed, you would do something like this: -- main.lua local numberOfSlowFrames = 2 local currentSlowFrames = 1 function love.update( dt ) i...

Looks good, especially considering your (relatively) minimal experience with the engine! My bit of feedback is somewhat nitpicky, but in general people dislike it if your game starts out full screen.

Probably, but we can't know for sure without a .love

This works for me

If you change the less than signs in the CheckCol function with less than or equal to signs, it works for me

Your problem is unrelated to chicken.jpg. Look closely at how you spelled "imange"

Hi, I'm not really sure exactly what you mean by "the older wall Ive added will be just a wall with no functions." That being said, I'm assuming what you're going for is to keep the player from going through the wall on the right side. If that is the case, you're very close. The problem is...

In this case, nil would be preferred over false because nil represents the absence of a variable, while false could be an argument.
