I'm going to check Lua out for more once I get a bit more free 
time from work and studying. If it seems good enough, I might 
even add an alternative option for it if I decide to write my own 
scripting language. I already implemented an event-handling 
system in my engine for ease of use on input devices and the GUI 
called Concrete (probably I'm going to make a real portable 
framework on it as it looks really cool and retro).
