Then you could have smaller buttons for the love/platform specific files if they require them. It would simplify things somewhat and be more streamlined for players/users who may not be sure what they need.
For example, if you got to the Skype or iTunes website, the page for your platform is brought up, though the others are still accessible in some way.
We're already doing exactly that. Basically there will be one featured button that says "Download .love" or something to that effect, and then there will be another button that automagically gives you the binary for whatever platform you're on. There's also an "other downloads" link that you can click to reveal a list of all available downloads.
Oooh, another fun feature could be "random game" where it takes you a random project page. It could mean that you/someone finds your/a game that you may otherwise have not discovered, you never know! There should be a checkbox to opt out of this feature though.
Do you recognise when the world won't stop for you? Or when the days don't care what you've got to do? When the weight's too tough to lift up, what do you? Don't let them choose for you, that's on you.

Interesting idea. It would be a bit useless now, because we see pretty much every game on the forums already. But perhaps, if the word of LÖVE spreads far enough...

I just found out that I have shitloads of things to do over the next couple of days, plus, for some inane reason, we've decided to put up new wallpapers and paint the ceiling of our apartment. So that'll take another couple of days.
I really dislike puns here. I have no problem with inside puns (libraries, memes, etc.), I quite like them. But not outward facing. Please let us have a tiny bit of credibility in the cold, hard, world out there.
