ICGL stands for Infinitly Cool Game Library (perhaps a bit of an exageration, but who's to say?). This library, once finished, will hopefully expidite the process of writing games for Windows for amateur game developers like myself. This library is being writen in C++ and uses Microsoft DirectX. At first, it will support graphics, music, sound, and input functionality, with a heavy focus on the graphics end of things. The reason for this is that these are what is required for me to finish my Lights Out game. However, I will probably add on to it later, or release the source code to the public and allow others to do that. Many of the concepts in this library are borrowed from the Game Programming Gems book series. I highly recommend them for anyone interested in game development.
