That reminds meGenre-shifting clickers that aren't really clickers (or are they...?)
Alienation"Diablo type loot game but it's a shooter" has maybe half a dozen examples? Not so much a highly specific micro-genre as a hybrid of two fairly popular things, but it's a distinct entity.

I've never played A Dark Room, but isn't it a missed opportunity to make the background white instead of black? I tried on two different browsers and it's white for me.Genre-shifting clickers that aren't really clickers (or are they...?)
A Dark Room
is it a clicker or is it a...?
Play it on mobileI've never played A Dark Room, but isn't it a missed opportunity to make the background white instead of black? I tried on two different browsers and it's white for me.
Or is that the point at the start?
The Trauma Center/Team series made its own "Arcade Surgery" genre. There was one Adult Swim game, but besides that the genre really wasn't touched much by anyone (or Atlus after the Wii).
I haven't seen more games like Neighbors from Hell except some russian shovelware...it's a series of point and click games about basically pranking your neighbor in a reality TV show and you need to get enough pranks going on to keep the rating up.
You forgot Power Stone.Super Smash Bros. is like its own genre, which is mostly itself, Playstation All-Stars, and other D-tier knockoffs like Cartoon Network, TMNT, and the Wii Force Unleashed 2 game. Party fighter? Brawler? I dunno.

The only one close enough is the Jump super and ultimate stars games, but those were made by nintendo too, so they don't count.

Various google searches for Peaches and Cream just took me to some weird, anime, furry art books.
Cookie and Cream?
Yeah, that one, sorry. I haven't played it in years.
Or you just outed yourself as someone who enjoys weird, anime, furry porn...
How about adding turn-based elements to a genre that usually isn't
Which is basically Ronin (turn-based action/stealth platformer), Mighty Tactical Shooter (turn-based shmup, still in development), and SuperHOT (pseudo-turn-based FPS)

SuperHOT
Nah. It's also a flavor of Walmart brand oatmeal.

There's another (Flash) game that's kind of like a 2D infinifactory although the goal is rearranging data, but I can't recall the name of it right now. *Might* be a Zach Barth title, not sure. I'll see if I can find out what it was.I guess Spacechem and its ilk are another, the puzzler that seems like it's about some other theme but is really secretly about programming. The idea is that it can't actually feature coding (so TIS is out), but the mechanics are actually abstracted programming functions
