Looks pretty good! I will say, as someone who programs in their day job and has been trying for ages to get into game dev as a hobby, love2d [0] has been excellent for getting started. My github has a few repos of previous attempts at making simple games (in .cpp, .rs, etc) which I abandoned from the amount of work it took.
If you're in a similar boat, I would recommend checking the framework out. Lua's a pleasure to program in and you can focus on the game development itself instead of getting bogged down in the details of rust / cpp. In fact I've been thinking lately about how easy it would be to use it for things other than games -- quick prototyping of graphical simulations, psychophysics experiments, etc.
