LÖVE

I am trying to increase the speed at which things fall. I thought that setting higher gravity would do this, but there seems to be a limit to how fast things can fall which isn't very fast, and setting higher gravity just makes the object reach this maximum speed quicker. So how do i increase the Terminal Velocity so that my falling objects will accelerate for longer and reach a faster speed?

Many thanks.

Maybe reducing friction could work.

I've already got friction set to 0.
Is there such thing as air resistance in the engine?

No, no such thing as air friction from what I can tell... the only way I got anything to fall faster was to change my worldVariableName:update(dt) under the update function to: worldVariableName:update(dt * x) where x was a number. Anything over 5 was ludicrously fast, though. Might work for what you're doing?

Box2d limitation. Rescale your objects. Please search the forum regarding this topic or see the CAMERA thread for a summary.
