    I started lua, and it seemed a bit inefficient. I have seen examples of lua coding in c++ that look really cool though! I have tried many languages: (C, C#, Java, Liberty BASIC, VB) But it seems the best knowledge I have is of html

LUA literally can take minutes for a user to blit a sprite on to a screen and make it move, with about maybe less than 15 lines of "code". This is relitivly easy, but thus users never come to truely learn the LUA language. While C is alot harder to deal with (having to write the code, makefiles, debugging, compiling, libs). Theres just so much that goes into C.

    My suggestion is that you try to learn C. Pick up a book, or read C lessons online, or the best way take courses. If you feel you can't handle C but still want to get into PSP Coding, then take up LUA.

    I have to disagree, a few months ago I knew Nothing of programming, I tryed to learn C (for computer so i can move to psp) it that alone was just to complicated for me, So a few weeks later I tried learning lua, I told my self to copy and paste NOTHING, Type every thing ALL OUT, that was probably my downfall with learning C, That was successfull, I made a few ok games, my first being PvP Pong v1, wich i completed the very next day after finishing the evilmana tutorials. then I upgraded it through out the time of a month and ended up with PvP Pong v4 which has Online 2 player mode. Content with that I began other Lua projects that I never finished, I started to learn C again, and found it SO MUCH easier BECAUSE i learned LUA. I made a couple simple games and just 2 days ago released my first Real program in C, Ace of Space v1, check it out www.blackshark.nukelol.com any way, my suggestion is to learn lua first, (AND DO NOT COPY AND PASTE ANY THING, im telling you you learn 5x faster by doing that) then try to move to C, Google evilmana tutorials for starting Lua!
