LÖVE

Hi. I recently found "löve for android" app in playstore ..so i was thinking of making a pixel art game using löve2d and an android phone just for fun.But i have some doubt regarding that...

1.Is it even possible to make games in an android smartphone?
2.Which Lua version should i learn 5.4 or 5.1?also which version does löve2d uses?
3.Any suggestions on which apps/tools should i use ??..my findings are pixel studio,pixly,quickedit text editor..

I have some basic programming experience with c, python, java..but no experience in pixel art even though i used to draw well using colour pencils few years ago..

Hi and welcome to the forums!

1. Yes, although you might want to invest in a keyboard (at least) to plug into your phone to make things easier...

2. 5.1, but also read https://luajit.org/extensions.html because löve uses luaJIT; note that currently the DLUAJIT_ENABLE_LUA52COMPAT flag is disabled, so the latter half of the 5.2 features are not supported.

3. anything works if you can use the apps.

Thanks for helping out. I'll post my progress after a week ....
