Drag the folder into love.exe.

Uh, I can't figure out how to play, it says use an axe, but where do I get 1?

EDIT: Nvm

Drag the folder into love.exe.

That does not help.

By packaging the .love file with the exe, I thought that you'd be able to double-click the .love file to run it. Or maybe you could drag the .love file to the .exe, I suppose.

Should've added instructions. Silly me. ^^

I click the .exe but it just pops up the love thingy. Is it supposed to load first?

To run the game, drag IsoLand.love onto the love.exe file.

I've tried making a standalone exe, but it never worked :(

Looking pretty good. So hey, is the Love engine generally easy to script with? I'm kind of interested. How limited is it?

Well, it uses Lua for scripting...

The Love2D engine uses the Lua programming language which is relatively easy comparing it to other languages such as C++, and a tad more restricted than Python, but is still very powerful.

It can create only 2D games, but there have been people out there creating 3D engines, which proves that you could create pretty much anything with it, but the more advanced games require more math and more coding, but a platformer shouldn't be too big of a filesize.

Most of the things you would need to code yourself are built into the engine, such as physics, which simplifies the entire ordeal by a lot.

The tutorials on the Wiki page should help you understand better.
