Now why would you hate lua of all things?

For all the reasons, but the 1-based index alone makes me uncomfortable.

		1-based indexing is great. It's just _different_ - from C, where the array index is just sugar for pointer arithmetic, and from other languages which borrowed the practice without reasoning.

I don't necessarily hate Lua, but I prefer C and Raylib for game dev. Lua is garbage collected, dynamically typed, strays far from standard syntax patterns, and has less existing tooling than C.

I see why people might hate Lua. Especially for game dev!

		Lua is extremely popular for game dev though?
