Enjoy :-) http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=49d9e3599cf9480a24a64199ac7f73e5e04e75f6e8ebb871 note: You may need to install the latest DX runtime. I feel pretty stupid for building it...

Looks pretty good. (^-^)-b

SDL, hands down.

Its more flexible.

Well, I'd just want to introduce myself.
I'm jazonxyz and I'm hoping to be active in this forum.
I've made a few small games and a simple map editor.
I'm currently working on an OpenGL 2D/3D engine.

Nice to meet you guys.
