programming language, reaches 2.0 beta this week. Freya allows you to
program cross platform games in the programming language Lua. It sports
speeds 2x-10x faster than PyGame, and contains a built in map engine,
pixel perfect collision detection, support for many graphics and sound
formats including Ogg Vorbis and different MOD formats. Right now the
beta release is looking for people to test the Linux version."
