If you want to make a game in Lua, you should look into a more productive Lua engine, such as [url=http://love2d.org/]LÖVE[/url].
Have you added no error handling?
No, I coded this very quickly.

I know, I was just pointing out that there are good game engines available for Lua.
*Cough* NS2 Engine *Cough*

A bit overkill for a text-based game, don't you think?
If I finish this game, (And I'm working on it alot, I got alot done in a few days) I'll start on another game.
I still have my Sourcemod to work on, (I only have 9 levels so far) and I still have a game I need to make for a friend. I'm working on ALOT :P
So far: Sourcemod, 2 Lua games, A game from scratch.
I think you need to get a better understanding of coding before you delve into anything as complex as C++.
My sourcemods coding is already done pretty much. I have my weapons coded. I just need more levels.

How is making a game in the console useless? It's like a DOS box game, where it's all text.[/QUOTE]
Your stupid, lua is a scripting language, not a programming language. If you want to write a game, learn something like C# or C++...

I don't believe the names mean different things. Lua is just a simple frontend for another language. Did you
know that C is a frontend language for Assembly? And you consider C a REAL programming language? Why don't you just code everything in Assembly, if that's a real programming language? Why don't you
code everything in hexdecimal while you're at it?

I'm writing my game in Lua already though :O
Luvya anyways <3

But why stop there when we can just write it out in raw binaries!

Why don't we just shock our memory sticks with electrical switches!

That too. In fact, we should just smash our computers with sledge hammers.

what does that do?
and how do i run it?
Those are just ASCII characters translated into binary, you don't run it.
Also, I am coding the third iteration of the text-game engine. It is open source, and all the code is a lot cleaner.
