I've flirted with Löve off and on.

Strong points: it has good support for things you need in a game but
are quite nice-to-have anyway such as mouse, graphics and sound;
it is almost as cross-platform as Lua itself; the finished product
is packaged neatly; documentation good; vibrant user community.

Many of Its other points will also be considered strong by some: Lua
version baked-in; event-driven execution; modular programming via
user-written fallbacks.

But you will look in vain for bleeding-edge Lua developments and
a mailing list discussing the finer points of Lua.
