[I] A game SDK
[T] ClanLib is a medium level development kit. At its lowest level, it[T] provides a platform independent (as much as that is possible in C++)[T] way of dealing with display, sound, input, networking, files,[T] threadding and such.[T][T] On top of that, ClanLib builds a generic game development framework,[T] giving you easy handling of resources, network object replication,[T] graphical user interfaces (GUI) with theme support, game scripting[T] and more.[T][T] The goal of ClanLib is to allow the game developer to focus on stuff[T] that matters, avoiding all those nasty (and boring) lowlevel trivials[T] like setting up a directdraw window, sound mixing, reading image[T] files, etc. All those things are simplified into object oriented[T] classes and function calls, making it a joy to write your game.[T][T] ClanLib uses a resource system to keep track of images, fonts, samples[T] and music. It supports Targa, PCX, JPEG, PNG and BMP for images. Wave[T] files for sample. Ogg Vorbis (open sound format that has same sound[T] quality as mp3) and MikMod for music. By using a resource system,[T] you cleanly seperate the physical data formats from your code, and[T] makes it easy to make themes and other plugins for your game. The[T] resource system is written in a manner that allows you to add your[T] own custom resources.[T][T] WARNING: this lib is very huge, but unfortunately needed by games like[T] methane brothers or pingus
