If you make an android game using love2d, will it directly run on the device, or does the user need to install love2d on their phone first?

If you follow one of the tutorials on how to package löve with your project into an apk, then no, they won't need to do anything else.

The apk you can create can be installed directly onto a device or put onto an app store like Google's or FDroid. For testing purposes its probably easier to use the .love files and use the LÖVE for Android (Beta) app https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... 2d.android.
