MoonSharp or How we combined JSON and LUA for game ability management
Some of you may be familiar with MoonSharp LUA interpreter for C#, often use in Unity engine to add scripting support to your game. That's what we took as a base for writing the code for abilities. Each ability can subscribe to different events such as whenever a card takes damage, is placed on the field or ability is used manually on some specific targets. Besides having event handlers we needed a way to specify some metadata like mana cost of abilities, cooldown, icon, etc. and in the first iteration of the system we had a pair of JSON metadata file and LUA code file.

Edit script on running game?
Rather than making your own language, just add Lua to your project. Moonsharp is pretty good with Unity...

Do Rust and Lua work well together?
I'm not a specialist about text based multiplayer game, but from what I saw on Wikipedia it seem doable to do it with Rust and Bevy. On top of that you can add a layer of LUA with https://github.com/khvzak/mlua (or write your own bindings and sandbox later).

Introducing Petrichor64 - a rust and wgpu built game engine/fantasy console with lua game logic
mlua can run on emscripten target with Luau backend -> https://github.com/khvzak/mlua/issues/23
- I was searching for embedded lanaguages in Rust and I found out I can use deno https://deno.land/[email protected]/embedding_deno which is amazing has anyone tried it ?

is rlua-async supports mutli-threading?
I know mlua does support Async. I also prefer it over rlua

Rust and Lua api
Note rlua doesn't allow you to create native modules with it and has largely been superseded by https://github.com/khvzak/mlua since it's more maintained, has native module support and stuff like Luau and async/await.

Dash.nvim v0.8.0 now supports Telescope, fzf-lua, and Snap fuzzy finders!
This is achieved through a backend/client architecture -- all core functionality (getting query results, opening selected item, search engine fallback, etc.) is implemented in a "backend" module, which is a Rust library exposed as a Lua module via mlua. The results returned by the backend then get fed into your fuzzy-finder of choice through thin clients, or "providers".
