This is the most important part of the program. Everything that happens in the game needs the variables created upon this section of the code. For those not familiar with a love program, the function love.load() is only ever called once. This allows for the creation of every variable needed. Also a lot of computation can occur during this function so that the actual game runs faster. I personally added a lot of code to this section so that the actual game functions faster. I’m not sure if I needed to create all these variables here but it helps me keep track of every variable I am using. The largest and most important part o this code is the creation of the map the game occurs, the creation of each individual enemies and finally the creation of the towers. When a later version of the game is complete all that information will come in from another section of the program. So its a lot to take in but I think the code below gives a valuable insight to how this game works. Also I would like to apologize for the format of the code, all my indention disappeared.<\/p>\n
