Are you aware that TIC-80 supports moonscript? It's one of the better PICO-8 "clones" out there.

I am, and I'm pretty exited about it. I haven't had a chance to work with it yet but I might mess around with it next ludum dare.

Is that open source? I'm wondering if it uses SDL or a similar library - binaries look pretty small.

A similar project, uses SDL, is open source, and came from antirez (of redis fame), LOAD81:

No source code, but looking at the Windows binary it's using a statically linked copy of SDL 2.

Plus that file's about 2 MB, so really not surprisingly small.
