Why is it that Lua gets so much attention is games development?
Is there something special about Lua that makes it good for writing games? I have no opinion on it since I've never done any real game development, and the only thing close to it I've ever done was back during the old days of Halo CE where I made all kinds of shitty hacks for custom weapons or modified weapons and vehicles. But nowa days I pretty much only run closed source games on consoles and only run open source games on my PC. I pay a lot of attention to how open source games are developed and it seems like Lua just gets all kinds of love from programmers. I know that a few games use Lua as the interface language for their API, and Minetest is the big one as they use Lua for their modding and plugin API.

For 2D games the LÖVE2D framework has been around forever and I recently heard about (on freepo.st) a new VR game development library that's also in Lua called LÖVR and it looks really cool. I am always happy to hear about open source advancements in the VR space but once again it's Lua making the headlines.
So game devs really love Lua! But why? Is there something special about how Lua is made that makes it good for visual media? I'm happy for Lua and the Lua programmers, but why Lua over something else? What does Lua do to earn its special place in the hearts of game devs?

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #games, #gamevideo, #gamingblogs, #gamingnews, and #videogames.

                 On July 9, Black Skylands, a sandbox RPG in which you control an airship, will be available in Early Access. 

Dark Skylands was a wonderful shock from IGN's Summer of Gaming exhibit. It's a sandbox sim where you assemble and alter a carrier and use it to investigate a huge open world, form skybases, and create new weapons. It helps me a piece to remember games like Terraria, just with a hierarchical view and in any event 200% more sky privateers.

The new interactivity trailer gives a pleasant outline. The thought, it appears, is that you utilize an aircraft to find and investigate diverse gliding islands brimming with frightful beasts and afterward utilize a munititions stockpile of firearms to explode them so you can steal the island's assets and use them to grow your own sky base. There's even a catching snare you can use to haul adversaries out from the shadows sky to drop them into the pit beneath.

Dark Skylands previously had a public playtest, yet it's currently made a beeline for Steam Early Access on July 9.
