When you are writing games, your audience is the mass consumer. Do you imagine the mass consumer downloading and installing between 20MB and 120MB of MS run-times before being able to run a simple .exe ?

I am afraid that at the very least you'll have to wait the .NET framework, plus all satellites runtimes, is embedded in the OS.

May be offtopic, but never forget that a .NET .exe is not executable code, but IL code. It needs to be compiled before it runs, and this takes 5 seconds usually in the small apps I've written so far.
No need to say that these apps can't be put in the Startup registry key, because it lengthens startup time by 50%.
So it goes with screensavers and so on...
