game development with c
Here's a framework that's cool: https://github.com/MrFrenik/gunslinger/. We have a great Discord community, too. Even if you don't end up using it, there are plenty of people who are willing to offer guidance regardless :). Invite link is on the author's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_HxKDNuCqA
- Do you have any C game frameworks, or should I just learn C++?

Magnum: Lightweight, modular C++11 graphics middleware for games/visualization
Check out gunslinger, a pure C99 game framework, with a very clean design.
The development has been making huge strides and they have a fairly active discord channel:

Looking for a game engine programmable in C
Make your own. If you really want to make a game in C, this may be the best option. Depending on how complex the game is that you want to make, this could be an enormous task, or not too big of a deal, in some cases it could even be easier than learning a game engine. You can use frameworks like Gunslinger to make it easier, as well. If you need guidance, the Gunslinger community is friendly and accepting of beginners :).

Generic data type in c
That being said, you may have your requirements satisfied with tagged unions which consists in implementing a struct with an anonymous union and label (like an enum) to keep track of what data is inside the union, this works really well when you know beforehand which data types you want to support. Another technique could be using macros, like the containers on the gunslinger framework, however I have never implemented something like this. Lastly you can always use void pointers, however you may need to be more clever to achieve it (I almost never use them).

Bash and Powershell remote scripts to install header-only C and C++ libraries from github repo.
To install non exotic library from a github repo, specify just the repo-owner/repo-name or the absolute github link to the repo. E.g. to install gunslinger and stb from master branch

A Header Only OpenGL Framework Written In C
Looking quickly at this lib, functions of the API are not static: https://github.com/MrFrenik/gunslinger/blob/d5ebcce0647e97badc9337749d7cd9f5810eecfa/gs.h#L1415, so it might lead to ODR violation.

How to build your interactive resume in 4 simple and 2 easy steps
When you decide on the high-level design of the resume, start building your map in Tiled. You can customise the map from the basic game you already have or build your one from scratch - just try and see what works best for you.

How to build maps efficiently
A more sophisticated approach may be to use something like Tiled (https://www.mapeditor.org), but it typically takes a lot of code to to parse a Tiled map, so I wouldn’t start there. The exact needs of your game will dictate the approaches you use. Starting simple means you can make good, visible progress getting your game to work. And I’m sure that plenty of real games have shipped where the levels are just text files.

Thirteen Potions Build Log
When I first messed with Phaser, I just used a 2D array to plop in my tiles, but that was very tedious. That's when I discovered the Tiled map editor! I was able to "paint" with my tilemap to create a map with various layers. I made a ground layer, a wall layer, an enemy layer, and a potion layer.

Pokemon Plum - some in-progress maps for my gen 2 hack
PolishedMap, for use in-game. But, if you're just sketching stuff out, PolishedMap doesn't have the most convenient UI, so something quick with great features like Tiled works well

People who play LANCER on FoundryVTT (or other VTTs), what do you do/use it terms of battle maps?
I use Tiled with this tileset I found in Pilot NET. The maps it creates are entirely form over function - no fancy art or effects unless you add them a different way - but they're very legible. Then I use Foundry's drawing tools to sketch out outlines for cover, object sizes, etc. (Here's an example of a map I made for a Train Heist combat - orange is Size 1, yellow is soft cover, purple is difficult terrain, and so on.)

Ideal printer to print maps, handouts, pawns and such?
If you want to add grids or hexes, you’ll need to edit the image in an image editor to add those. I’d suggest looking at TileD at https://www.mapeditor.org or something along those lines.
