  • And you can absolutely implement an ECS in Lua. It won't be as performant as in a language where you have direct memory access, but there is more to the ECS pattern than just performance, like modularity and separation of data and logic. I would never suggest anyone to implement a full blown game engine in Lua (though you could, using bindings like this: https://github.com/stetre/moongl) but it is certainly possible.
