The collisions seem to work too! Great job!
Yes.. They work...
*nervous laugh*
Seriously now, collisions don't yet check X axis, only Y axis. So, whenever a note reaches the screen bottom it will get tapped. I still need to properly name each note to track it's collisions. As mentioned in the first post, ingame is still very early WIP.

Will the paddle be controlled by mouse or by keyboard? And how will you handle spinners and sliders?
It's controlled by keyboard. Left and Right keys, Shift
will (it still doesn't) run 2x faster so you can catch tight notes.
It doesn't exit. There is an especific logic for that to happen, since some songs end before their actual music. Besides the fact i still need to show the players their scores and save it on a list. So, yea, still long ways to go.
First, sliders:
These are usually bezier curves. The .osu files already give me control points for bezier calculation, so, getting the curve points every 20 ms or something is not a problem. Repetition logic is also not so complicated, but i'll need to refine the initial logic a bit.
As for spinners, initially i plan to generate a fixed amount of "bananas" using the ".osu" hash as a seed.
Once the entire game works, i'll start modifying it to play more solidly, since "copying" osu! game mechanics are not the focus here (by copying i mean 1:1 spinner generation, for example).
@edit1
The note fall speed is still inconsistent between screen resolutions, it's on the fixme list.
Besides, the trick on CtB is reacting fast enough to catch all notes, no matter the speed they fall.
Was that what you meant?
@edit2
Love2d currently only supports ".ogv" video format playback. So, for now, the answer is "no" due to engine limitations.
