It sounds like the object is spawning on top of the player. Just move centreX or decrease distance if that is the case.

Google search for 2D game engine from myself as well.

Do you have SDL?

This is cool, although it's not very useful until it has a lot of features. In particular, the graphics functions for drawing things other than rectangles (polygons, circles, and lines come to mind) Also, the ability to work over multiple "files" or samples or whatever you want to call the...

Tyler: you know, you can combine the love.exe file with the .love file to make a single .exe that runs your game. You can see http://love2d.org/wiki/Game_Distribution for info on how to do this. if you don't want to type the full path to a file, you can use 'cd' to navigate folders in the command pr...

Bartbes: thanks for the bug report. What happened was your unit died after the 10 seconds was completed, which can only happen if you win and a tower that fired just before 10 seconds was up manages to hit you just after 10 seconds is up. The game should still have saved the fact that you won the le...

I really liked the way it turned out, so I have been working on it since then. It is still a work in progress, but it is entirely playable and has a significant qu...

game.conf is now conf.lua and it looks different/has more options

now use print instead of draw for text

(In love 0.5,) This works for me: points = {x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y2} love.graphics.polygon(type,points) note that points is a one dimensional array. EDIT: just realized I misread and you're talking about polygonshapes, not drawing a polygon. Still, I'm pretty sure that what I said is relevant to polygonsh...

I would probably just manually create and track "objects" across the screen, and for each "shot", test if it is touching the player. for example: --make circles circle = {} circle.insert({x=100,y=100,vx=50,vy=50,size=5}) circle.insert({x=500,y=200,vx=-30,vy=80,size=8}) --update c...
