is there any way to allow the game to run in the background of the device? or have i missed some functionality to allow this?

Not specifically for the Love game engine but working on a game with the goal to ship in general. This is assuming your finances are fine and you have reserves to focus on making a game. Working in a small group is great if everyone has something tangible to contribute to the game. Mainly sound, art...

not an exact implementation, but with regards to a slowmo that eases local slomo = 1 function love.update(dt) if slomo > 0.05 then--include your activate slowmo condition slowmo = slomo * 0.5--or whatever slowdown rate you want.

Looking at the player script alone you provided, the dash only occurs when 2 main conditions are met: When the Z key is down, and when the dash timer is more than 0.

Then you have another problem where the character will be under a tree/building/whatever when its below The map file is 2560x1920 so it would fit all devices. The bigger screen you have, th...

I'd highly recommend you look into using sprite atlas and sprite sheets for your game environment for your own sake and others. This tiny map is fine with the current method you are using, but will get tough when the map gets larger. Designing a map from individual sprites, will make positioning of ...
