Allegro VS Onion

Allegro (zlib/plain C) https://github.com/liballeg/allegro5

Some nutjob has taken control of https://liballeg.org to redirect it to some anti-Nazi page that mentions Kotaku, comparing them to nazis.

C, C++, Allegro, SDL, Some rudimentary SQL, Some basic BSD Sockets. But I also took some time to learn 3D math, trigonometry and linear algebra so I can include some basic 3D examples in my portfolio. I was later told that it was the 3D math that made the difference because if I (barely finished HS) can do that I can probably learn everything they give me.

Wow, DJGPP and Allegro (still going!), that takes me back - that and Bloodshed IDE were my weapons of choice back then!

allegro 5 is quite alright with fonts

allegro5 is a great rendering library if you want to get something 2D on the screen fast

Hell, their website says in the first few sentences it isn't an engine.

A while ago I was getting started with the Allegro5 game engine (+Rust bindings). It's the same engine used for Factorio. I wrote a simple egui-integration to have nicer UI options. It was mostly for myself and is thus poorly documented but maybe you get some ideas how to make it work.

Here's a simple program using Allegro

I've also recently fallen into (reading/watching about) it, and from what I've seen, some of them have really impressive levels of community software support

e.g. https://onionui.github.io

OnionOS is your best choice. It's as simple as dropping the files onto your SD card. Then, moving your game files to their respective folders. Here is a video guide. Here is the official page with download and any information you would need. If you're still using the stock card, I'd highly recommend getting a better quality one so that you don't lose all your data again.

Download Onion OS to your computer. Onion OS is available from the link below: https://onionui.github.io/

Update PixelReader to v0.6 by @Aemiii91 in #1208

(Please note that I am using Onion OS V4.2.0-RC, if you are using other version, it may not work.

I followed the instructions from here and used the specialized software. It's a Samsung Pro Evo SD card bought in an official store and the reduction is completely reversible by using the Windows formatter. I don't really mind that much, but am wondering if I didn't noob myself out of twice as much space!
