Hi there! I love your engine! I've been fiddling with it to make a game for an upcoming game jam ^^
Sorry if this is a really stupid question but I genuinely cannot figure out how to use love.js and makelove to build my game. I keep getting all sorts of errors even though I'm pretty sure I've downloaded (mostly) everything that I need... makelove keeps throwing me a pkg_resources error despite the fact python has confirmed with me that setup tools has already been installed. Would seriously love some pointers because I genuinely don't know what I'm doing wrong and I would really like to release a game using your engine ^^;;;;

wait, i’m getting this error too! it seems to be an error with setuptools deprecating pkg_resources. i’ll have to look more into this, but for now you can just downgrade to version 81 and it works (pip install setuptools==81.0.0).
by the way, if you run into further issues with makelove, i found that it really prefers it if you use git… it shouldn’t require it, but honestly i find that doing so is easier than trying to figure out what the issue is. git init, git add ., git commit -m 'whatever' and it’s happy as a clam. i should add this stuff to the readme…
