What programming languages to support?
Support JVM and its languages: there are a lot of JVM languages out there (java, scala, etc), they all run on the same VM so with a single implementation you're likely supporting all of them. Mostly handly if your FC is also jvm. This is the route i'm going with my fantasy console Omicron, being mostly a java programmer myself. (bonus: you'll probably get an Android version running at a fraction of the price).

I've made WiseLoader, a classloader that creates a secure sandbox by whitelisting classes that can be loaded. Useful for loading third party plugins in wake of JEP 411: Deprecate the Security Manager
In my case, i'm using it in another project of mine: a java fantasy console named Omicron where you can make and distribute games that, tecnically, are similar to jars. They're loaded and executed within the "player" (the main app) but need to be sandboxed to be safe to use.
