If you want to build something that does some background job while displaying the animation that's harder.
A lua state/vm is mostly single threaded. The best you can do is some sort of cooperative multitasking, in the form of lua coroutines |
Maybe I am wrong but then, how is the read timer counting down in the background while we continue to use the ui.
