The BEAM's grown up along with Erlang and so the culture and optimisations are built up all around function application, list processing, recursion, and pattern matching etc.
https://github.com/llaisdy/beam_languages is a decent list of the diverse languages that have been implemented on it, but nothing quite like 'regular for and while loops'.
The BEAM itself is a plain aul register machine though, so it could be done!
