Actually I prefer to develop in TIC-80, but the community is way smaller, and TIC-80 games can’t be played on phones without a keyboard. It’s not a 1:1 alternative, tho I’m glad it exists.

I can recommend PICO-8, if you have access to any windows/osx/linux computer.
It’s a “fantasy console”, a self contained gamedev environment that emulates an 8bit retro console (while using Lua, a popular and modern language), is super user friendly, and allows you to get a satisfying and fast feedback loop when learning to code.
There are many resources to learn it and a lively community

Most of the time I have a folder per game, with a
somegame.p8
whose only code is#include main.p8.lua
(+ other includes if needed), and the code itself is insidemain.p8.lua
. Since the code is cleanly separated from the other assets, I don’t risk overwriting one with the other while juggling between my IDE and pico8
