Interesting or distinctive lisps?
"Cakelisp is a metaprogrammable, hot-reloadable, non-garbage-collected language ideal for high performance, iteratively-developed programs (especially games). It is a transpiler which generates C/C++ from an S-expression syntax. Cakelisp takes some inspiration from Lisp, but is not compatible and does not aspire to become 'a Lisp'."

How about https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/I-unsound? I think everyone saying Rust is "high quality" or whatever is delusional until there are zero bugs on their GitHub. I also don't want to know about your 3 year old's ugly drawings.
That's why I will be only coding in Cakelisp, a compiler with zero (known) bugs!
This is a bug. Literally unusable.

Suggestions for a functional language for videogames
Also look into Gamelisp's state machines which are an awesome way of modeling stateful in-game objects. Cakelisp is another cool language made specifically for gamedev.

Hitting a wall: the importance of learning without a game engine
I wrote a language primarily to make that sort of feature easy to create, via compile time code generation and execution. See Cakelisp.

Is there any c lisp dialect with features of nim or ziglang
cakelisp has no GC and is meant for games programming.
C Lisp dialect is quite a brand new sentence, but I like the chaos feel to it with a touch of confusion. Exo Lisps that might worth a look: * https://hg.sr.ht/~duangle/scopes * https://github.com/makuto/cakelisp
