PGE Lua uses a port of the latest Lua release 5.1.4, which has been optimised specifically for the PSP.
PGE Lua comes with 23 fully commented samples demonstrating how each module is used.
Alongside that, full documentation is available via the homepage: http://pge.luaplayer.org/
There is an emulator for PGE Lua which runs on Windows, Linux, OSX and allows PSP-less development. This is almost complete and will be released at that time.
Installation
Copy the 'pgelua' folder to PSP/GAMEXXX/ (or PSP/GAME/ if your kernel is set to 3xx/4xx in the recovery menu).
Known Issues
None as of this writing. With this being an initial release I would expect there to be a few undiscovered bugs. Let us know.
Coded in pure C and ASM using the homebrew PSPSDK.
Thanks to TyRaNiD for psplink, which was used extensively in debugging.
Thanks to all in #psp-programming on freenode.net, where quality homebrew is produced. Special thanks to those in #lua who know so much about Lua it scares me.
Personal thanks to romero126 and Soulkiller, who tested, provided feedback and helped me steer PGE Lua to where it is.
Massive thanks to Raphael and Tomaz - the work we did on triEngine helped me really understand what an engine is.
Biggest thanks to MK2k for joining the project midway through development and making it much more than I (InsertWittyName) ever expected.
Notes
Please be aware that this is not Lua Player.
PGE Lua is it's own product and shares zero code with Lua Player.
For the C developers, the C API of Phoenix Engine will be released in due course, shortly.
PGE has been in development for over a year, it's not some mis-match of code copied from other people. This is the real deal.
There are lots more plans in store for PGE and PGE Lua, a roadmap will be released shortly showing the expected development.
Support
For further help that is not supplied by the samples or documentation, there are forums for PGE at http://pge.luaplayer.org/.
We are also on IRC, channel #psp-programming on irc.freenode.net, for one-to-one help.

Name Kaiten Patissier 1.00 PSP Version R1 Original Developed by D.K. aka Alpha Secret Base / http://maglog.jp/alpha-secret-base/index.php?module=PB Level Support by oranda / http://www.indiegames.com/blog/ Platform PSP (Custom Firmware) Dev-Details Ported to the PSP using SDL
Description
Indiegames.com describes it best: "Kaiten Patissier is the latest game from D.K., several months in the making, and which I [oranda] highly recommend. It uses the same 'collect-them-all' mechanic as Good Luck Natsuki, but is built entirely around the concept of rotating the levels to re-adjust the locations of platforms, boxes, walls, floors, and ceilings (Kaiten is Japanese for "rotate"). After collecting all but the last item in each level, a bonus item will appear somewhere in the level, so be sure to keep an eye out for the bonus items if you want to get 100% completion.
As I [oranda] note, I [oranda] contributed several of the levels in the game, so you'd better download it and check it out!"
