Not in 3D to my knowledge but visual programming for sure.
One example was ObjectVision from Borland on the PC. It lacked a loop
construct because it was event driven but otherwise was a complete
visual programming tool. I actually built a couple of business apps
using it in the early 90's. There's a YouTube video showing the demos
that came with it:

Another one, currently popular on the RaspberryPi micro computer is Scratch:

And on an industrial scale there are several tools that attempt to turn
UML/SDL design diagrams into executable code, with varying degrees of
success.
There's nothing new under the sun :-)
