No idea where you got that first file from or why you changed the extension of it. Please download version 1.0.4 of the game.

Once you unzip that, open a terminal and cd into that new folder you created which will be called "v1.0.4" I assume.

Once you're in that directory, you can run love src to play the game.

This will only run the game from the source code and as a result, save files may act up. This is only meant for development of the game. Ideally you'd download and run the packaged .love file.

If the packaged game does not run, then something is wrong with your installed version of Love and you should reinstall that.
