There are a few.
Multimedia Builder seems pretty cool, and you can manipulate objects in a similar way to Game Editor:

Game Maker is much easier to code than C and can be used for those purposes:

Ubercode looks pretty nice, I haven't tried it out yet but I'm planning on it:

Euphoria is a nice programming language that seems fairly easy to learn. It's free and has some libraries to use the Windows API:

Euphoria is the only one of those that's completely free... how much are you looking to spend? They're all priced fairly decently. I've got a list of other applications that may suit your purpose as well.
