About JOY OF PROGRAMMING
You can use real Python packages such as numpy, pandas, scipy and scikit-learn. The in-game editor has syntax highlighting, auto-complete and a debugger, or you can use VS Code or PyCharm. The store page calls it very hard and recommends prior programming knowledge, so it suits experienced coders.
It is a paid game by Prof. Scherer on Steam for Windows only. Because it runs real Python, only run code you trust. A level editor lets you share levels on the Workshop.
