Honestly I don't see anything wrong. What about this very little example? It should draw red and blue rectangle with white text.

Code: Select all

function love.draw()
    love.graphics.setColor(1, 0, 0)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 10, 10, 20, 20)
    love.graphics.setColor(1, 1, 1)
    love.graphics.print("In white")
    love.graphics.setColor(0, 0, 1)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 25, 25, 20, 20)
    love.graphics.setColor(1, 1, 1)
    love.graphics.print("In blue but actually white")
end
Profile. Do you encounter crashes in LÖVE Android and wanna send me logcats? Please hit me up in LÖVE Discord and send the full logcat file!

Your file should be named main.lua.

Just like "CogentInvalid" pointed out, Löve requires you to name your main file "main.lua".
Also it would be best to share the file, rather than a printscreen. Bonus points if you do it in the "Support and Development"
