Put a LÖVE archive named game.love in the same folder as the NRO file of the latest release.
Additionally, you can directly drop the contents of the archive in the folder, as long as it contains a main.lua file.
For building, you need the devkitA64 from devkitPro setup, along with switch portlibs and libnx. Documentation to setup that can be found here.
To produce self-contained game NRO files, download the latest release, and run the following commands:
# Customize $APP_* vars to your liking
mkdir romfs
cp game.love romfs/game.love # Your game here
"$DEVKITPRO/tools/bin/nacptool" --create "$APP_TITLE" "$APP_AUTHOR" "$APP_VERSION" game.nacp
"$DEVKITPRO/tools/bin/elf2nro" love.elf "game.nro" --icon="$APP_ICON" --nacp="game.nacp" --romfsdir="romfs"
Note: All the required tools to package a game can also be compiled from this repo
Run one the following command from the project root to build:
./build.sh
NRO and ELF files will be located in the dist folder.
