Moonscript (http://moonscript.org/) is to lua what coffeescript is to javascript.

I've used coffeescript a bit and like coding in that syntax better than javascript. It compiles to well formed, best practice javascript and has some really convenient (and compact) constructs.

Before wading into Moonscript, I was just wondering if anyone in this community has any experience with this and can share their thoughts.

I think Adam from Crawl Space Games (Float, etc.) has used it. He's @AdamBuchweitz on Twitter.
