Obviously you can do what you like, but I'd advise making sure box2d (or similar) is super easy. Bonus points if there is also a built in function for drawing box2d objects.

I've often taught beginning game dev in a day, and with box2d in love2d you can very quickly make a wide selection of cool games, and while it's not perfect it makes it easy to get started making platforms, doing collisions, all sorts of things.

Fair enough, maybe I'll include it after all. Unless I get hung up on the question of which physics engine to include. Endless possibilities make decisions difficult.

A good way to think about it is in my opinion, you making a choice saves all your future users having to make that choice — imagine the decision making time they will all save.
