RPG Maker XP is what got me into game development when I was 12, I can't remember the amount of hours I poured into that program. I will always have a sweet spot for them, but I think the art style of the new versions aren't as good.

For me it was Daisy's Garden.

I remember my friend at the time made an entire Pokémon game in it, with like 30 different stat modifiers and evolution and everything.

The whole engine fit on a single 3 1/4 in floppy disk. It wasn't really a very good engine because I seem to remember you had to have the engine to run the games, you couldn't just bundle them, but if you did have the engine there were quite a few fun things to do.
