I started working on a raylib binding for pharo using pharo's ffi...I have to say pharo's ffi system is very easy to use. It works and I got a few demos working, but I haven't put in the function calls for most of raylib. https://github.com/Zenchess/pharoRaylib
There's also native pharo smalltalk stuff like athens, woden, and maybe others...

Pharo is bootstrapped, and its building process starts with a really minimal image (even the compiler is not included). It is possible to build custom images of any size. You need to take care of packages and dependencies, of course.
Pharo can make applications with a native look & feel - https://github.com/pharo-spec/Spec-Gtk.
Current Pharo has a very solid and powerful FFI, so using C libraries is easy.
