Update: it's going well
It's a pretty fully-functional language at this point; by default it is interpreted but you give a command-line flag to the interpreter and it outputs the Lua equivalent instead.
So far I've got if and while compiling and I'm halfway through define.
New current short-ish-term goal is to write a pico-8 library so you can make games in it.
I'm going to release version 0.0 soon
