Deploying Your Game

Once your game is ready, package it as a standalone executable for the platforms you want to support.

Packaging with Love2D

Love2D games are distributed as .love files or as platform-specific bundles.

Creating a .love file

# macOS / Linux
zip -r my-game.love .

# Windows
powershell -command "Compress-Archive -Path * -DestinationPath my-game.zip"

Rename the .zip to .love on Windows.

Platform-specific builds
