I have lots of old drawings, from various ages, but I can't have started making games before, like, 2006, so I definitely don't have any homemade games from before Y2K.

I got tons of drawings from before Y2k, and some games...and a few books.

Other than that, not really. But it is fun and enjoyable to look through your old stuff.
