Love2D with steamworks?

[teeter11]

Is there any way to get Love2D to work with steamworks? I have looked around online and haven't seen much about this topic.

Sorry if this is the wrong forum

Generally, this is going to require building your own version of LÖVE with Steamworks support, unless you can get something working with the FFI.

Yep FFI seems to be a possible route, take a look at this:

Know that I think about it my game doesn't really need steamworks. I was thinking about adding micro-transactions but that seems like a dumb idea now cause I think I will keep my game free to play or maybe a single purchase. But it would be nice to know for future reference. So thank you guys.

this is possible, Luminosity (a Löve game) did this BUT you will need to do some custom work on Löve's engine for this to be possible

There's no need to modify LÖVE – you could either create / use a binary Lua module that wraps the Steamworks API, or use LuaJIT's FFI to access the functions, as mentioned above.
