Allegro is one of the best game libraries in the universe.  It covers nearly
every aspect of a game you could need from sound to graphics to file i/o.
It even has it's own data file format that has LZW compression (good) and
the tools to use it.  The graphics support VESA and some of the routines
include drawing sprites with rotation, scaling and translucency and has
several texture-mapping routines.

All in all it's like DirectX for DOS.
