I recommend the Picotron, their newest fantasy software. It is a full fantasy workstation. It has no upper limit on game size and can export native binaries for the big three OSes. You could, in theory, publish a full game with it.

I've been working in Picotron to go through this "program your own Puyo Puyo" book Sega published... it's a very fun environment to work in.

You can boot it up, fullscreen it and totally LARP programming... I guess an amiga with nicer color pallettes?

I really love picotron, if I had more time I'd exploring the pico net lol, a fantasy internet that's only accessible on the picotron, and uses lua instead of js https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=148018

also all the recent 3D work is seriously impressive considering picotron has quite limited "fantasy hardware"
