Maybe AngelScript (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AngelScript https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AngelScript) could be a good fit, used in a bunch of released games, so seems to be good enough for real work. Wren (https://wren.io/ https://wren.io/) is another interesting language, but I haven't even tried it myself, but on the surface it seems to match. Edit: Scratch that, Wren isn't actually statically typed, but somehow I have it saved in my bookmarks as one.
