I would strongly suggest you develop higher knowledge on C++ before venturing into game programming. Nearly 100% of programmers who want to built games, try to start as soon as possible, which is very bad, you will just ask people to help you out without any progress at all. You will see some weird stuff which the gaming library has nothing to do with, or even worse, not knowing how to built the stuff yourself to start the easiest tutorial.
If you want to build games, I would strongly suggest to go with UDK.
If you want to program games, I would suggest learning C++ at least the simplest concepts, like pointers, structs, header files (the last two were included in my book so you should know I guess)
From what I could gather is that you do not have enough knowledge of programming, which is needed. Even though you knew the basic concepts, your game is going to suck.
Note: Allegro 5 and OpenGL 4.0 had the same installation (nearly the same) and from what I could gather, the idea is that all libraries should have the same installation. You will better be off learning C++, since I made the same thing as you 2 years ago and came back to C++ to learn a lot of stuff.
SDL is known to be easier than Allegro 5, meanwhile others say the contrary. It all depends what you really mean. The file actually had a folder, because you have to open it with WinRar.
Read a C++ book with a lot of pages than you will learn stuff alone.
The better your C++ skills, the better the games you will make will be.
Otherwise, read my Allegro 5 book ;)

- Standard C does not have any graphics support at all; it is a system-specific and/or library-specific function, so we'd have to know what you are programming for in order to help you. Finally, this is a message board, not IRC or Twitter.

- Graphics.h library is used to include and facilitate graphical operations in program. Graphics.h functions can be used to draw different shapes, display text in Draw a line in C graphics Using functions of graphics.h you can make graphics programs, animations, projects and games.
- Jun 02, 2016 Most of us are unaware that using C, low level graphics program can also be made. This means we can incorporate shapes,colors and designer fonts in our program. This article deals with the steps to enable the DevC compiler to generate graphics.

How do I use Borland Graphics Interface (graphics.h)?
In C Program execution starts with main similarly Graphics Environment Starts with this function. Initgraph initializes the graphics system by loading a graphics driver from disk (or validating a registered driver) then putting the system into graphics mode. C graphics programming Perhaps, the capacity of C to perform fast graphics display has contributed to the popularity of C in graphics and game programming. In this section, you will learn basic C graphics programming. This part is a good place to start learning graphics programming with C.
For those of you migrating from Borland, you may be wondering where graphics.h is. Unfortunately, graphics.h is a Borland specific library and cannot be used with Dev-C++. Fortunately, a benevolent soul by the name of Michael Main has modified a BGI emulation library for Windows applications to be used under MinGW (and therefore Dev-C++) which he has aptly named WinBGIm.
The files we need are:
graphics.h
(download to C:Dev-Cppinclude)
libbgi.a
(download to C:Dev-Cpplib)
After you have downloaded the files to the correct locations, you can now use WinBGIm’s graphic.h as you would Borland’s graphics.h with a few caveats.
Using library files:
First, you have to tell Dev-C++ where to find the library functions that WinBGIm references–this is done in the “Project Options” dialog box.
Here are instructions on how to do this with a new project:
• Go to “Project” menu and choose “Project Options” (or just press ALT+P).
• Go to the “Parameters” tab
• In the “Linker” field, enter the following text:
-lbgi
-lgdi32
-lcomdlg32
-luuid
-loleaut32
-lole32

Just to make sure you’ve got everything set up correctly, try this test code in a new Dev-C++ WinBGIm project:
#include
#include
int main()
{
initwindow(400,300); //open a 400×300 graphics window
moveto(0,0);
lineto(50,50);
while(!kbhit()); //wait for user to press a key
closegraph(); //close graphics window
return 0;
}
{
initwindow(400,300); //open a 400×300 graphics window
moveto(0,0);
lineto(50,50);
while(!kbhit()); //wait for user to press a key
closegraph(); //close graphics window
return 0;
}
or
int main()
{
initwindow(800,600); //open a 800×600 graphics window
moveto(0,0);
lineto(50,50);
rectangle(50,50,150,150);
circle(200,200,100);
while(!kbhit()); //wait for user to press a key
closegraph(); //close graphics window
return 0;
}
{
initwindow(800,600); //open a 800×600 graphics window
moveto(0,0);
