Löve for Android – Alpha1

Over the last few weeks I made attempts to create a native port the awesome 2D game engine Löve to Android. So far it seems to work for relatively simple games. This was mainly possible due to the great GLES port of Alex Szpakowski (@/slime73).

Here are some e if you want to give it a try.

Instructions

1. Extract a game to /sdcard/lovegame, i.e. i.e. main.lua must be located at /sdcard/lovegame
2. Download the Löve app from http://fysx.org/~martin/shared/love_android_sdl2_alpha1.apk
3. Run the app

Notes

• it uses the 0.9.0 API
• you must have a game. In the current version it does not run the no-game screen.

This is super early alpha. Not sure yet what works and it’s possible that it may not work as expected.
