“3 Easy Pieces” is a $3.99 guide by spotlessmind1975, teaching novice programmers to create three vintage-style games using ugBASIC for 8-bit computers. It includes a PDF and source code for hands-on learning.

If I understand things correctly, ugBasic actually lets you develop programs for 8-bit platforms on your PC, using something that looks a lot like BASIC within a modern IDE.

Then it makes everything run fast. Presumably by translating stuff to assembly.

For those interested in Game Boy development using a BASIC-like programming language, the latest version of ugBASIC language and development toolkit (ugbasic.iwashere.eu) can now be used to build Game Boy ROM files, as well as executables for many other retro video game systems!
