Yes the B4X products are worth looking at http://www.b4x.com
B4J for desktop, servers and raspberry Pi
B4A for Android
B4i for iOS
(B4J and B4A are free).
Also NSBasic which is a VB-like language which transpiles to JavaScript for Android, Desktop and iOS apps.

I wouldn't give that "twin basic" thing much credence. Outside its hard-shelled echo chamber it doesn't exist. Sounds more like another QuickBasic cloning attempt to me. We already have Horse Basic, er, FreeBASIC if we wanted that.
Then I recommend you take another look.
twinBASIC is "cloning" VB6/VBA (with extensions).
You can already copy and paste VB6 code into twinBASIC and have it run.
The first version of the forms designer is in beta (for cross platform including Windows but not VB6 compatible). The VB6 compatible version is due early next year (and will allow the use of VB6 forms).
And 64bit support too.
