That's weird... try `:syntax off` `:syntax on` to try and force the syntax and see if that works. I'm honestly not completely sure but it's definitely something I will try and figure out.
In the meantime, we can continue this conversation on GitHub if you like, I opened an
issue.
*edit: I'm not sure how crucial it is, but try creating a directory in .vim called "after" and putting the syntax files in there and see if that does anything.
Okay i will.

Umm dude? may i ask a vim-related question regarding love2d?
Im using a library called lurker, which is a hot-swapping library, but when i run
in vim, instead of the terminal staying on the vim editor, it doesnt, so i couldnt make any changes to it. Can you help me?

Are you sure you put the exclamation mark in front of start? I'm not really sure what else it could be.

Actually I didn't realize you're on Linux. Start is a windows command. Try putting " &" at the end of the command.

Messing around with this today I figured something out.
If the " &" solution doesn't do the trick, this may help: the Vim "!start" command (which is different from "! start", the command which is Windows only), does NOT work the same way as the command line. In other words, if you use a shell file to run LOVE, it may not be finding it by using !start. To call from the command-line non-blocking, this is what I did (example is to run Python scripts):
Where "cmd /c" runs a command shell. It may be different in Linux, but that is gist of what you may end up having to do if you can't get LOVE to work. Hopefully one of these solutions works for you
