You know I usually suggest not running the games as root...
(Not only because of what you experienced, but the PDL library usually assumes it is run as user, and the functions this library calls assume you're running as user, etc. etc. I don't really would like to debug a system that's been exposed to that for weeks (already seen weird things like /home/user being owned by root or the like).

@javispedro : I am sorry, I didn't know the real issues before, thanks ;). I did it only because I was too lazy to open another terminal after my "chmod +rwx" on the executable file :o.

@Leon4 : Did you try to run Angry Birds from a terminal to see what is the error message ?

Are you sure, in your "/home/use/com.rovio.angrybirdsseasons/data/scripts" directory, you have the following files ?
gamelogic.lua
loadlist.lua
particles.lua
starLimits.lua

If those files exist on your phone, are you sure they have appropriate permissions ?

Very strange...

Maybe you can try this :
chmod 777 /home/use/com.rovio.angrybirdsseasons/data/scripts/*

Can you also check your files size ?
(for example, "du /home/use/com.rovio.angrybirdsseasons/data/scripts/gamelogic.lua" should return you 416 KB)

Maybe your game is corrupted.Have you tried creating a folder home/user/usr/palm/applications/ and copying angry birds inside it?
