Learning Love

I have recently began using the Love framework and it seems like a nice and simple way to create little projects. However, I have no clue where to begin and I want to find good, instructive sources that can help me build a basic foundation for Love.

Does anyone know where a starter like me can learn Love? (All replies are appreciated :) )

Try Sheepolution. By the looks of things, you're ready for Chapter 5 or beyond.

Sheepolution is more like walkthrough tutorial I'd say. But if you want to learn gamedev/Love2D then you need to create stuff - that's the ONLY WAY you will ever get your head around this framework. So I'd recommend you check out the Harvard Extension School GameDev Course

This is no boring course. But I'd argue the most amazing course you will ever take in your LIFE. The later lectures will cover Unity3D but I'dd say 75% of the course is about Love. And in every lecture you create a game which I think is so cool.

If you are follow-up learner then the youtube playlist should be enough (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... bvZ_D17Qzh) but if for some reason you are having difficulty following through then you can go to the official edX course (BTW the playlist was official as well - just it won't give you assignments and all that). The link for that edX course is https://www.edx.org/course/cs50s-introd ... evelopment

And finally the full lectures are in any-case uploaded on GitHub (not for you to fork but for you to clone/download the repository)

I hope I helped you in some way and yeah - Make AWESOME GAMES starting from right-away!!
