I open sourced a game I just released on Steam, written in Lua
Thanks for this, will pick through it to see if we can pick up any better practices or patterns. My 11yr old son and I playing with Love for a few weeks, learning OO, LUA, and some game engine principles.

How can it take to learn love2d?
There's this nice tutorial made by the bytepath developer. It gives you a good ground for you to build your own stuff, it teaches you how to handle scenes, asset management, and object creation, as well as some game mechanics, but you can skip this part. You can also download other people love2d games, extract the files and see how they did things, I do this a lot when I want to know how to implement certain mechanic.
