I have to say, LÖVE 2d holds a special place with me because it's the first 'real programming game engine' (as in language only no accompanying ide or such) I ever actually developed anything that I would consider a fully fledged completed program I made entirely by myself with.
This looks pretty awesome and all but I can't see the benefits over something like unity or unreal or the amazing for the cost and features Godot.
I really like Lua. I've always recommended it to beginners or anyone curious about programming for fun over every other language. I've used it myself extensively
But in this day and age, I can't really see recommendating this or even LÖVE2d anymore to anyone interested in getting into game programming.
There's just too many high quality alternatives these days.
