History:
LOVE
The first LOVE was originally released on PC through Steam in 2014 and later launched on the Nintendo Switch in 2019.
LOVE is a reductive platforming game with a retro aesthetic and a focus on challenging difficulty. It has a custom respawn system, 16 levels, a 12-track original soundtrack, and competitive scoring. The challenging levels are balanced with the inclusion of a simple yet unique respawn system wherein the player can leave a checkpoint at any location at any point, as long as they are on solid ground. Players have a number of gameplay modes to choose from, whether they want it easy, normal, or to try a mode designed specifically for Speed Running.
Beyond the visual aesthetic, the challenging level design, and the abundance of features, there is the fantastic soundtrack composed by James Bennett, which brings the simple 3-color atmospheres to life
***
kuso (LOVE 2)
kuso was originally released in 2017 on PC through Steam and received a considerable free content update when it was released on Nintendo Switch in 2018.
kuso is the sequel to LOVE, and maintains the same focus on creating a fair challenge for players to complete and master. You have the ability to run, jump, and leave your own checkpoint. Make your way through acid, long jumps, disappearing platforms, bouncers, giant saws, and much more in a dreadful mechanical world. If you're looking for a game that'll challenge your platforming skills, give you something excellent to listen to, and a game to master, kuso is for you!

🤘🤘🤘
Super fun! I really liked the addition of slow mo!
> Includes every level from LOVE, LOVE 2: kuso, and LOVE Remastered in addition to the original 42 track soundtrack
This is wonderful. I love when games do this. I have the original LOVE on Steam, and never got around to finishing it somehow, despite really liking it... Being able to pick up the whole series in one is great, especially for such a low price as $10. Y'all rule.
hey thanks! glad to hear all of this :)
Just a heads up, the Windows and Linux releases are mislabelled. The Linux link downloads the Windows version, and vice versa.
thank you for this
Could you please check the 1.2.0 Linux build ? It seems to have the same content as the Windows one.
Thanks in advance :)
There's no Linux build... The Linux archive has the Windows version.
1.0.6 still works fine, though.
Edit: The Windows version seems to work fine under Wine, at least.
