As far as I know, the screen you have is the no game screen with Love 0.8.0.
It just means Löve is running fine, and is waiting for some code to run it.
So you basically have to send it a .love file. .love files are just zip files (with the extension renamed to .love).
See Getting Started for more details on how to run a love file.

Also, this will help you actually start the game.
