A very BASIC esolang is an esolang made by User:DifferentDance8 to push the "Pseudonatural" category to it's absolute limits. Unlike TWFUN, an earlier esolang made by the same person, the name of this esolang was ironic on purpose. (Looking back on it, it's extremely similar in concept to Esolang Simply Created To Annoy People Who Dislike Scratch, but wildly differs in execution)
