Wow. I never expected to see Sailor Moon references in HN.

I never tried Lua before. Is this a good place to start? I'm looking to learn something new.

LÖVE might be a fun place to start: https://love2d.org/

(Also, I can't believe I didn't get the Sailor Moon reference...)

Check out http://moonscript.org/ too (CoffeeScript for Lua).

Lua is Moon in Portuguese, so for some people it might be easier to get ;)

I'm always so happy when people get the reference :D

I think it's a great place to start! Lua is a fantastic language!

Don't see why not as a place to start. The book "Programming in Lua" is really well written if you want some background, but you can probably pick up the basics easily anyway.

Check out Lua Missions[1] for a quick tour of basic Lua.
