Ermm.. I don't get it (then again it's my fault I've never heard of Super Tux :P :cry: Or bothered to click about it ... I feel like I've seen it ... somewhere).
Is it that it's been ported to so many platforms?

And, yeah, I don't think it's done with love-2d (yet another split dimension of löve).

Nope
Just some open source game from linux enthusiasts, that was made in times, when dinosaurs still existed

as you can see, for wii there is no "official" port, only homebrew

When it comes to homebrew, it's not really a matter of money.

I'm not talking about homebrew
I'm talking that putting game on platforms, such as Nintendo's, xbox, ps officially may require much more money, then homebrew it or put it in, for example, on steam, itch.io or gamejolt

Why it will be ready in 2025? It looks not so complicated, one year for mechanics and level editor, one year for creating several levels (with Löve).
