There’s nothing about this that screams “this language needs to be created”. Call me a pessimist, but I’ve seen So many toy languages on HN.

My advice is, if you don’t have any original ideas and want users, your best bet is to implement a subset of JS, that’s the route I’m taking.

Jonathan Blow has a great talk on the redundancy of scripting languages in game engines.

It's definitely not a language that needs to be created. I was just in the need for a scripting language in my game engine, and I wanted something that felt like GLSL.
