Re: Is Love a Suitable Engine for my Project?

I'm currently working on a classic RPG, like what you mentioned. I too am just starting with love2d. Right now I just have my character loaded up and walking around a map, which is just a 2d image, and so far so good. my character faces down when you move down, up when you move up, right left, vice ...

noob questions: does number of lines of code affect speed of a game?

Hi again. While trying to learn all this stuff questions like these pop into my head: Wondering if many lines of code can negatively affect game speed in some way. since love2d only uses 2d graphics, is it only memory usage that causes slowdowns and not-optimal gameplay? Did I even word that right? ...

Re: trying 2 set up walking animation with sprite sheets and tables. will this work?

Thanks for laying this out, i'll be taking a good look at it. Yeah I got the walking animations to work (but not changing the standing idle animation after you move yet), and yeah after looking at the code I immediately thought "there has to be a cleaner way to do this". I'm used to using ...

trying 2 set up walking animation with sprite sheets and tables. will this work?

My first time making a table, and it looks like I don't yet know exactly what you can and cannot put in tables. I heard that you can put tables inside of tables... i think? Trying to come up with a clean way to organize sprite sheets and quads to animate the player. I managed to make the walking_dow...

Quick question. Possible to create "expansions" to your game, releasing it in parts?

Pretty much what the title says. I just started working with LOVE2d, but I thought I'd ask this now.

I haven't checked out love's capabilities for saving/loading game data, but I was wondering if it was possible to release a game, and then add onto the game with "expansions".

Re: Want to make a 2d top-down or angled RPG. Starting out, could use some advice.

Hey Positive. Thanks for your comment earlier, that helps. I saw you recommend Bump for collisions. that'll be the first thing I check out when I get there. Yeah I did, thanks, but it sucks cuz I'm gonna have to change the look of it a bit. I want to keep the same feel, but just look slightly more e...
