code

white = Color.new(255,255,255)

menustatus = 1

while true do
screen:clear(black)
pad = Controls.read()
end

if pad:up() then
menustatus = menustatus - 1
screen.waitVblankStart(4)
end

if pad:down() then
menustatus = menustatus + 1
screen.waitVblankStart(4)
end

color={white, white, white}

screen:print(50, 50, "Play", color[1])
screen:print(50,60,"Options", color[2])
screen:print(50,70,"Exit", color[3])

color[menustatus]=red

if menustatus == 1 then

Best I can say is that this line
if menustatus == 1 then
if pad:cross() then
dofile("Game.lua")

Is missing 2 ends

Those are actually matched at the end of the file. The while true do, on the other hand, is not.

"while true do break end"…What? It's like you wrote that just to annoy me.

You're trying to run code made for LuaPlayer on the PSP without alteration. That isn't going to work. Even if you fix your syntax errors it isn't going to work.
