Reminds me of Scratch, easy to use and make. Would like to see one short game example, or two added to this tool.

I was just about to learn bBasic programming when I discovered this system. I'm having a blast.

I had the wood black Atari and had the cartridge that allowed you to do a tankbattle, and fly airoplanes. Great fun. So cool that you can make this without having to known the intricate ways of ‘Racing the beam’

I hadn’t come across Blocky, Batari Basic, or Javatari before. Thanks for linking to your GitHub page from the game page, that's helpful. I managed to tweak the background and get some basic functionality working using the Action examples provided. The experience reminds me of Scratch. This is such a cool way to dive into retro game development.
