Games that push the limits of old game-making tools

[Yakibomb]

I've made a few games in the Games Factory. I think most are stinky because they can crash and are buggy, and the engine just falls short in some way. (There were so many times I'm like, that bug is a feature! Yeah!)

I'm gonna advertise my own game... I don't know if this is considered a "professional game" but the gameplay loop for Dr. Toad: The Doctor is IN is pretty solid (if I can say so myself). I'm pretty proud of it, even though it falls short in some areas.

Premise is you're Toad and you have to shoot Dr. Mario viruses. The catch is you have to match the color of your pill gun with the color of the virus to defeat them. Pretty fast paced and has some strategy with upgrades and circle-strafing movement, but ultimately kinda unprofessional (and stinky) because I didn't document the upgrades in-game, so you just kinda have to guess or find it outside of the game.

Anyway. Outside my game, I'm sure there are some good games from the Daily Click games website (if that's still around)
