Last weekend I downloaded the manual from somewhere and read it from start to end, was a blast from the pastI've never looked at the pc versions of Blitz, I wonder if the syntax is the same, because it looked kind of "weird" (\ to access udt fields, () for array indices but not if the array is part of an udt - then it's [] ...).
Regarding GFA Basic, I belive all games are made by a single dude, the one who won that basic jam where i participated with neon breath. Impressive
The document greatly helps people to understand the pc version of Blitz.

I look forward to new game jams which are for BASIC dialects because interesting entries could usually be found in those jams.
[ On the other hand, I could not find any game project on Itch which is with the tag "naalaa". ]
