If your application is compiled to a binary you might still be able to use normal debuggers like IDA. However, Lua has its own tools for decompiling from machine code and byte code. These links should be kept up to date by the Lua community.

Lua Wiki: LuaTools

If you need support for Lua 5.2 LuaAssemblyTools is the first to support that.
