I Ported the MOAI engine of Broken Age fame to html/emscripten, It runs full lua along with a bunch of other libraries (libpng, freetype etc) You can see it running here (and edit the code and run in browser) http://moaiforge.com/samples/sample-browser/player/index.htm...

I absolutely love MOAI! Thank you for your work.

It is a really well designed engine. And it's community has a lot of talented people.

I'm deeply saddened that it appears to be dying. And that I don't have more time to work with it and contribute to it.

Hey, we interacted a little over 2 years ago when I was talking about a hand-coded port of Love2D to the web using Moonshine. Eventually the dependencies for Love did get to the point where I could do an emscripten port. Just wanted you to know that your project and our little interaction has stuck with me.

The emscripten port of Love.js: https://github.com/TannerRogalsky/love.js

Wow, glad to see it come together! Love2d is so clean, it is great that it works in browser now.
