I would start by looking at some of the languages that are often used as
script languages: scheme, lisp, perl, tcl and python comes to mind. Most
of these are very easy to use in your own programs. For lisp, golgotha has
some source to do it. I think that tuxracer uses tcl quite a bit. And so
on.

If performance is a serious issue, you may want to evaluate them in the
context of your game, however, I think the interprenter overhead on a
modern CPU is very small, and you gain a lot from these languages.
