Well. Delorie never has made a compiller. He used the GNU GCC for his
work.
So djgpp has the GNU-s compiller called gcc.....He just ported the
compiller
and made the DOS RUN TIME LIBRARIES.

Why do you want your game under DOS ???
Every game runs under win95 only. I would recommend to use Visaul C++
5.0
It is a well tested win95 compiller with DirectX, OpenGL, GLide (3dfx
only)
support tested well.
Under DOS the only way to use 3d card is Glide. But glide only supports
few
card and people doesnot have the DOS driver for their 3d card.
DOS version of GLIDE is only tested with another compiller: Watcom

Game without 3d will look like shit, and 3d w/o hardware rendering will
be shit too.
It is 1998.

A wonderful game uses NETWORK. but many people dont have network, just
Internet.
TCP/IP drivers only under windoz or linux used by people.

OpenGL is well tested under LINUX too.(using the gcc compiller)

So dont use DOS for games !

There are many graphician, musician on the IRC:
irc.funet.fi/#demoscene,#scene,#thescene,#coders

Some musician can make sounds.
