I just grabbed LOVE a couple days ago in an attempt to test if I wanted to pursue making games with this engine. For testing purposes I was working on re-creating a version of the old atari game Frogs & Flies. The code is very sloppy as I am learning the language and didn't break anything out into functions yet.
Use Arrow keys to move your frog around (must jump up to move left or right unless in water) and use the space bar to stick your tongue out. With each fly you eat, they get faster and more erratic in there direction.
Anyway, Enjoy!

It's extremely fast. I think you need to use dt for not making the game speed dependent on cpu speed

Re: Frogs & Flies early demo
I must have the same power computer as the dev.
Re: Frogs & Flies early demo
Thanks for the tip, I will try to get that fix in place soon - its hard with the ten hour work days
Re: Frogs & Flies early demo
Haha, wow. I don't remember ever playing this, but nice job. It definitely has the look and feel of an Atari game. Sometimes I really miss the simplicity of those games.
