I want to write Lua code that can be run as a Java program. How do I do that?

you do realize that it is not that easy, a lot of things on roblox do not replicate to java, and that you would have to make so many different items just for it to translate to and from

You don't. Just get a Java library for calling arbitrary Lua code.

"That would be where you guys come in"

do you really expect us to re-write about 100+ lua functions on roblox in java and make it declare variables using value types and braces?

"Wow, you guys made ##### That was fast, thanks! I knew you guys could do it!" LOL no #### ## just an implementation of a LuaVM in Java, it's not a "Lua to Java compiler" and nobody here made it.

Roblox Graphics Engine ~= Java's Default Engine (Canvas, Paint Method, etc)
Roblox Methods ~= Java's Methods
Roblox Identifiers ~= Java's Identifiers
Roblox Scripts ~= Java Class
Roblox Enums ~= Java Enums

-- It's possible. But it would be easier to learn Java itself. It would take WAY MORE extended java knowledge to do this, so why waste the time. Look up a few tutorials.
