Games made with niche/odd engines - an IFDB Poll

Okay I created a poll for mice for the Neo-Interactives folks, it's time for me to make a poll about something I'm super interested in. We all know the Big Three (Unity, Godot, Unreal), Twine, the Inform family, etc. What about games made with engines nobody really knows, or games made with software not meant for that? It's fun to experiment with the boundaries of engines for me, and I'd love to see other people playing with that!
