Getting Started

Before Game Kitchen can be used, a project must be opened. To create and open a new project, click on the “New Project” item in the “Project” menu, as shown below.

You will be prompted with a file dialog which asks you to choose the location of your new project. To use love with an existing project of yours, place the new project file in the same directory as your existing project's main.lua file.

To create a fresh project (recommended), place your project file in an empty directory.

Project Settings

If you've decided to open an existing project, Game Kitchen may generate a massive amount of typechecking errors (and lag massively). To disable type checking for your project, you must use the Project Settings dialog. Choosing Project Settings under the Project menu should show you this dialog. Remove the check from the Enable Type Checking check box and click apply.
