Comments and Reviews
Love it how easy and simple to get started and for being portable, comes with everything included no setup needed. You can just download, code and run your code. Perfect for beginners but comes with lot of features and libraries to satisfy even advanced users. Also like the way you can package your project in to a .love file and share it and run it with Love2D. Neat little framework. Lovely!
Love2d is a lovely framework for people wanting to learn game development. It's written in C++, which means it will perform well, and it uses LUA to interface with its API. And LUA is a good starting point for beginners.
The only issue I have is the is the poor documentation.
