This is like the 4th forum iv typed, but no good answer =( ...
I MADE A GAME, AND I WANT TO SHARE IT ON A PHONE, NOT A COMPUTER
1. IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?
2. SHOW ME EXACTLY HOW.
3. ONLY ANSWER IF YOUV DONE IT BEFORE OR IF U KNOW HOW.
4. I WANT IT TO BE ON A PHONE, SO I CAN SHARE IT WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
5. PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME EXACTLY HOW, LIKE SHOW ME OR SEND ME A VIDEO BUT TRY IT FIRST.

EDIT: THE REASON IM SAYING ALL THIS IS THAT I SEARCHED SOO MUCH FOR A SOLUTION BUT DIDINT COME TO NOTHING

(IM A VERY NOOB) :brows:

Please, stop spamming the forums. You have already asked this question and even bumped the thread recently. Please, appreciate the responses and value time of those people. And yes, sometimes you need to wait for an answer. Specially, when you want somebody to lead you by the hand.

No, you're pointlessly opening unnecessary threads. Consider deleting this one since you already made one on this topic before.

If you want to create an apk for game distribution, that's a bit of a tricky process, and the method in the wiki under "game distribution" may be a bit depreciated. There are a few topics that already deal with generating apks using libraries/tools, (such as LoveToAndroid), however if you just want to share a ".love" file for testing or whatnot, all you have to do is compress all your game files into a zip archive, and then rename the ".zip" extension to ".love", and anyone with the love2d app installed can then open it using something like Cx File Explorer. I'd recommend going through the various tutorials listed in the wiki, such as "How to Love (Sheepolution)", "Learn to Love (RVA Game Jams)", etc. as they provide informative ways of structuring your project so that it will make it easier to share across multiple platforms.

Hmm, how about this. On android there is a love2d for android apk. That can be installed. And this runs only a .love file when set correctly in the android.

Figure out how to get a game.love into the apk which is also a zip but compiled java for android with a manifest.xml file. Have fun!

You mean, asking repeatedly, now even by SHOUTING?
