Wow, this actually looks very impressive. Do you have any idea why most of the "simple" game-making platforms are using Lua nowadays? Is it just because of its ease of embeddability into other systems, or is there something else at play?
- elisee 13y agoThanks :). Yeah, embedding and exposing functions to Lua is very simple. Sandboxing it too: the I/O functions are confined to a few modules you can easily disable, which is a huge plus. And it's a fast, small language with no "complicated" symbols to type (no C-like braces and stuff) and a nice learning curve, great for beginners / less-technical people.
