hi guys,
a javascript version of love2d is available.
http://code.google.com/p/lov8
i haven't posted the source codes yet. but an installer and a couple of demos are available for download.
i stripped out all the lua code and replaced them with javascript bindings for the v8 engine.
best! more power to all lovers!
v8 powered Love2d
Re: v8 powered Love2d
Wait wait, what? You made a LÖVE fork that uses javascript instead of lua?
Now posting IN STEREO (where available)

I would like to see this continue into 0.6.0
Javascript is something I am a lot more familiar with.

Re: v8 powered Love2d
My game was programmed in JavaScript until I discovered Löve. And even though Safari was super fast at executing it, it was still way too slow compared to Lua and Löve.
Also, I only see a Windows EXE. No OS X app. Such a shame.

Re: v8 powered Love2d
but playing Love games through the browser is probably still out of the question, right? >_>
Re: v8 powered Love2d
yes it is possible to write love into browser, but this is not that solution to that. What you are looking to do is a Active X plugin which could easily make work in windows only. Or port love to http://haxe.org or Java.

Re: v8 powered Love2d
All I ask is whatever road you guys take LÖVE down, please do not leave us Mac and Linux users behind by going Windows only.
