100% you can, I'm working with 2 people who did it back in the day. However you can't single step and put break points on actual c64 like you can in VICE ;) or see the internal register states of the VIC and CIAs etc send snapshots that show bugs so my PM can send me a snapshot and say "here the sprites are stuffed up" etc

What do you use then? I don't know of any chiptune-oriented programs that aren't tracker-based
If you like LilyPond, PPMCK, or other MML tools, you'll love Pently. The score is written in an MML-like language that looks like this, though ft2pently is also available.
Yeah I'll try it out; it's just that I already added my own music engine to my game. It's pretty barebones but it's taken care of anything I've needed so far. Usually I start messing around on a keyboard, and once I got a melody I like I'll put it into famitracker and go from there. Then once the song's all done to my liking I'll type it into the source as raw .db's.

I think that, if you are a little bit genius then you may also be a little bit mad, therefore, probably, it is both, I think.

I actually used my Amiga 4000 quite a bit when developing Driar. All the graphics are made in Brilliance and then "transferred" by hand to NES Screen Tool. And I did the level editor in AMOS so all the levels are Amiga-done!
