Check out (the now unfortunately named) CoronaSDK from (the also unfortunately named) Corona Labs. It's all Lua based and is now entirely MIT open sourced.

One of the easiest to code cross platform development languages there is.

I was introduced to game development (and my first "real" project) through CoronaSDK 3-4 years ago. Wrote a very simple android game. Ah it was fun! :-)

Whoa! CoronaSDK got opensourced?! It was the hype back in 2012-15ish era. It and Ionic etc. Always wanted to learn something like that but never got beyond backend dev thanks to overloading office work by my jerk employer back then. Will definitely check it out now, now that I'm in a better place and have weekdays to myself purely.
