As a proof look at http://www.nongnu.org/enigma/download.html (this
game actually answered your question for me some time ago:) )
Actually C + Lua rocks for me. I have somewhat complicated engine in C
(almost ansi:>). With SDL libs I just compile it on Linux & Win32 (No
code change).
Lua gives me OOP for my game :> and C gives good portability and
performance. In one sentence:
I can live without closures in low level engine but I can't live
without them in game objects definitions :>
