Uploading to Kongregate or Newgrounds

Post by Solarfloss »

I'm fairly new to LOVE2D(Just started last month), but not new to Lua in general. I had some skills from a game called roblox. I've started a little project that was supposed to be just a test, but I have continued to add more onto it. So assuming that I really like it and decide to release it to the general public, how would I release it to somewhere like Kongregate or Newgrounds?

Thanks in advance.

Generally speaking LÖVE is used to make games that need to be downloaded in order to be played. So you turn your .love into a .exe or .app. Not played on a website (there was some web-based project, but afaik its old and not functional).

A good place to release your games is itch.io

Alrighty, I'll just use Itch.io. I actually like it more than the others. Thanks for the help! :D
