Thanks for another awesome video! Super useful as well. A lot of tutorials about using Tiled for Love2D are either very old, or very low quality, so seeing this appear in my notifications page made me very excited. I can definitely see you gaining a much bigger following as the Love2D community becomes larger and larger. There’s just no one on youtube right now making videos as good as yours! Keep it up!

Hey Kyle! I finished your course and it helped me out A LOT! The basics are done absolutely right and clean. I'm absolutely loving making stuff up from scratch. Haven't watched this yet but I'm stoked. I just finished my tiny level1- tiled project and this came right on time.

Thank you! This is good stuff, subscribed. I like your style, clear, no-nonsense and to the point.

day 4 of learning lua, and your videos are helping a ton! started off with the classic "hello world" and pongs, now im designing an actual game! the tiles external is vital in helping me with map making. ive already designed my own custom sprite, working on custom animations to replace my web generated sprite

I actually started learning because of these tutorials!

Your video series is REALLY AMAZING. Thank you so much for all that you do.

This is really cool! I should probably use Tiled, but I'm currently waiting until I settle on a language / framework, and then I'm gonna make my own :)

Keep these videos going! I just started using Love2d and you make some of the best tutorials for it! You definitely deserve more subscribers and I’m looking forward to the next videos!

This lesson was so cool! That Tiled Map Editor program is really awesome!

I love everything in these tutorials. I haven't had a single issue that you didn't explain very well. I do however have one issue that I am trying to solve with no luck where when I move up or down I get lines that appear for a split second and it happens every couple of seconds but it only happens when I am moving up or down and never left or right. Its strange! Anyways, thank you for everything you do!

Edit: I used the math.floor on the players position to fix the white lines that shown up.

Last time I tried this it didnt work, Im glad I gave it another go!

There is so much more info on getting started with Love2D. Lately I tried to get started with DOME, which runs over Wren. Neither of these languages I could understand, but I do understand Love2D for some reason.

Amazing video! Understandable and quick to the point! Just a question: Do you know where I can learn about "map switching"? (Switching from game world map to an npc house map for example). Thanks!

I know how to use lua but I just started using Love2D this video was very helpful thank you so much!

I struggled with this trying to use my own assets. I had to start over and rewatch the video. tried again with the provided sample assets and it worked. then I started over a third time with my own assets and it finally worked. not sure where I was going wrong at first but I was getting my whole map in the window zoomed out.
