Abstract
LÖVE is an open source framework that uses Lua and OpenGL, similar to what most other frameworks offer. It’s available on Windows, Mac, and Unix operating systems. Although LÖVE can’t be used on iOS devices themselves, it’s valuable for whipping up quick and easy prototypes of your game or app on the desktop. Another advantage of LÖVE is that it can be used to create desktop extensions to your application, which could communicate with mobile applications.
