Function
Synopsis

Hold key to continue moving left or right
Please note that a generally better way to move an object would be to put code in love.update() which uses love.keyboard.isDown. This is just an example.
function love.load()
x = 400
love.keyboard.setKeyRepeat(0.01, 0.2)
end
function love.keypressed(key)
if key == "left" then x = x - 20
elseif key == "right" then x = x + 20
end
end
function love.draw()
love.graphics.circle("fill", x,300, 30,30)
end
x = 400
love.keyboard.setKeyRepeat(0.01, 0.2)
end
function love.keypressed(key)
if key == "left" then x = x - 20
elseif key == "right" then x = x + 20
end
end
function love.draw()
love.graphics.circle("fill", x,300, 30,30)
end
