What about nim (http://nim-lang.org/ http://nim-lang.org/) ? It's more python-like than CoffeeScript-like, but still looks lighter than Python, without the overuse of 'self'. It can compile to C for the server part and to Javascript for the client part. The obvious difference with your project is that it targets nim, not python, and thus cannot reuse any of the python libraries. Being so close to C it can use whatever is written in it though.
