ChaiScript VS Wren

If you want to use C++ for scripting, take a look at Jason Turner's ChaiScript

3) Similiar to 2, but use more common scripting languages: chai, cs-script, sol2 (c++ framework to embed lua)

A few years back I actually went and made a ChaiScript based video game engine (https://16bpp.net/blog/post/masala-a-chaiscript-game-engine/). The end goal for it was to be able to make a Pacman like clone, but have all of the game logic implemented in ChaiScript. I actually found out as I added more realtime elements (implemented in ChaiScript) that it started to take much longer to process the game logic; the "game loop FPS" was under 60, which is not good. I actually proposition that ChaiScript move to a bytecode VM (https://github.com/ChaiScript/ChaiScript/issues/266), but I'm guessing that no movement was made on that front.

Maybe ChaiScript? It is not exactly what you are looking for, but very similar, in my opinion.

Take a look at Wren if you want a similar looking embeddable scripting language. It was created by Bob Nystrom (who now works in Dart). It’s a lovely language.

My first choices would be Wren or Gravity.

Have you looked at Wren? Being embeddable is a primary use case.

I make DOME Engine (https://domeengine.com) which lets you program using the Wren scripting language (https://wren.io)

Luxe uses the Wren scripting language, and has its own APIs on top of that. It also has a graphical editor, and a modular design where people can create modules which you can include in your project to extend the engine's capabilities.

Take a look at Wren by Bob Nystrom, who also wrote the book Game programming Patterns

I was initially going to do these in Python (and I still am) but someone in Discord got me to give Wren (https://wren.io/) a try. Here's my solution for both parts: import "io" for File

And as a follow-up to this, the wonderful Wren, which has some neat extensions to the work done in Crafting Interpreters.
