LÖVE

Anyway, seems pretty interesting. I'll definitely make a video if I ever get back to making videos. Someday.

Why should we test it when we have LÖVE running natively on Linux?

I do that a lot, actually, for non-LÖVE games. Why compile stuff if the Windows version works? In this case, it's the same, we'd have to compile 0.7.2, but hey, we don't.

Mainly because we don't have to compile LÖVE, just to install it. I'm quite sure most people who don't have either wine or LÖVE will prefer to install the latter than the former... Also, I don't remember where exactly but another person already pointed out (some years ago) that LÖVE works on Wine

Wow, people with Linux that don't have Wine installed. I'm sure they're out there, but it amazes me.

Not always, not always. Beats me why.

Okey you have three options to run this 0.7.2 game in Linux
1-Install LÖVE 0.7.2 and that will probably erase the LÖVE version you had already installed
2-Compile LÖVE 0.7.2 that is a little hard
3-Install wine and just run the .exe
I would prefer the third one... Just saying (I don't run Linux anyway)

PS:I don't speak english so forgive the grammar mistakes that I may have (and correct me if you want I'll apreciate that)

Do the Controllers work on Wine?

Just tested it with 4 controllers from different brands, they all work. There could have been some trouble if the controls were more complex (because of different controller brands ordering the buttons differently), but they're quite simple, so it works swell. Even if the controllers didn't connnect to the game out of the box, a keyboard to joystick mapper would do it.

But there's one unrelated problem: the game screen starts too big for my resolution, and I had trouble choosing the right screen size the first time I tried. So maybe set a smaller screen size as default?

Ah ok thanks!

I keep your suggestion in mind for the HD ... Version. I plan to use Shaders . But it will need some month, because i'm currently working on anoher project.
