Sadly the creators of the Lua powered Corona game engine, Corona Labs have decided to call it quits. The economics of funding game engine development simply no longer made sense. Instead of simply shutting down though, they have open sourced the game engine (more than it was) and have switched to the much more permissive MIT license.
