Just use APL or J.
Unlike BF, they were actually designed to serve a “useful” (and not a “useful as in BF” sense) purpose – and yet can easily make Perl code-golf entries look like novels. (The dedication and mental training to enjoy these languages is currently more than my skill/effort levels.)
If the goal is using a purely esoteric language, I have always enjoyed the look of Piet programs. It looks prettier and is actually able to solve common CS homework problems. Following the links will reveal “Piet assemblers” and other tools. Win.
Happy coding.
