Win 98... that was mentioned in my post. I went 800x600 because that was easiest based on my code, but it could be 640x480, use static graphics, no sound, etc, to be just a blander, static notfication. That would reduce the size considerably.
Heck, it could just be a small DOS console app that spit out a couple lines of text. This was just an EXAMPLE to show folks.
The installer idea is nice as it would be consistent across all games, let the site install each game neatly under an Abandonia folder (by default or fixed folder), but it would mean more work for the folks who do the updates. I would not expect the reviewers to have that kind of time, software or training.
