Then why do you have a game file?

I was curious of this, and after a brief google search, I found out that a .love file can only be open with the Love engine.  So I downloaded the Love engine, opened the file, and got the image above.

Looks interesting!  I'd like to see it when it's complete.

Other than that journey I went on to find that, this game seriously has no business being submitted yet.  I suppose you just wanted people to have a laugh with the screenshots, which is ok.  But it's not a game--and I mean that literally, it's not a game for the game jam.  So I won't be rating this very highly.

If it does get submitted before the voting period finishes this week, I'll come back and review it.  Until then, this is not a game, it's a series of non-interactive funny pictures.

how do i open it? I think you are missing the data files
