Best way to handle multiple screens?

[theelitenoob]

Hi, i was wondering the best way to implement multiple screens in
a love2d game? For example, i would have say a Title intro screen with the name and title
of the game and some buttons, then when a button is pressed, i want it to
update and change the screen into the game itself, whats the cleanest and most efficient way to implement this?

You are looking for some sort of gamestate management. There are a number of approaches. This forum topic investigates some approaches.

There are also a number of libraries to tackle this problem. My favorite (because I wrote it) is hump.gamestate, but there is also bartbes dsm and kikitos stateful.lua. Just pick the one you like the most.
