Is there a way to run my love2d game without installing love2d itself?

I'm making a game using LOVE2D and I'm almost finished. However, I'm worried; can the user install the game without even installing Love2d itself? If so how can I extract it?

Solution

  • The distribution of games created by you is documented in this page: Love2D - Game Distribution.

    In short, when you want to distribute a game, you can simply package it in .zip and rename it to a .love. Running this requires that the user has Love2D installed.

    However, you can also create a self-executable package from your game, this means that you will distribute a single executable and the users do not have to install anything. This is also documented in the page.
