You can use a canvas with resolution of 800x600 and then scale it to fit any screen, here's an example:

Code: Select all

function love.load()
    canvas = love.graphics.newCanvas(320, 240)-- small canvas (use 800 and 600 here)
    -- calculate scaling:
    scaleX = love.graphics.getWidth() / canvas:getWidth()
    scaleY = love.graphics.getHeight() / canvas:getHeight()
end

function love.update(dt)

end

function love.draw()
    love.graphics.setColor(255, 255, 255)
    love.graphics.setCanvas(canvas)

    -- draw your stuff here:
    love.graphics.setColor(0, 0, 0)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, canvas:getWidth(), canvas:getHeight())
    love.graphics.setColor(255, 255, 255)
    love.graphics.circle("fill", 100, 100, 30)
    love.graphics.print("scaled text!")

    love.graphics.setCanvas()

    -- draw the entire canvas, scaled:
    love.graphics.clear()
    love.graphics.draw(canvas, 0, 0, 0, scaleX, scaleY)
end

and here's the documentation:
