I have really crappy computers in my Computer Engineering class. I really wish to show my mates how great some indie games are, but not many run on them. Cave Story, and N+ are the only ones that I know of that will work. You guys now of any other awesome games?

I like Madness Interactive, even if it is a bit hard and underground even in indie circles, which is Flash so I think it'd work. N+ works? Why doesn't regular N work? I didn't even know N+ was for Windows.
Nikujin and other Ikiki games would probably work, too.

Completely forgot about Ikiki games, good suggestion. I thought I saw N+, could be wrong though and I assumed. muku should be able to give you some advice here :D

Could try Karoshi. I did try Skullpogo and said a dll (Wbem I think) wasn't there. |

How 'bout Lyle in Cube Sector? I can't imagine that'd have many issues on a 2000 machine... Though I could be wrong.

Game maker games may work, and I've run Dwarf Fortress on my ME (95+2000), but it is noticably slower then on newer machines.

I am pretty sure it would due to my experience in using it under Windows 98. Battle for Wesnoth and DoomRL worked fine on 98 as well. |

I think it's a dll that's not missing,. but only in newer OS's. |

I suggest Knytt and Knytt Stories.
They runs great on my pentium 3 800Mhz with windows 2000. =)
I can play also with a lot of other games.

Some stuff from my own folder:
Art of Theft (Or any AGS game)
ROM CHECK FAIL
Gamemaker stuff should generally run, though probably slowly.
A few of the Demakes Compo titles like Dysaster, MoTM, etc.
Progress Quest Cheesy
Or just browse TIGdb a bit, you're certain to uncover something.
