This video is a beginner-friendly introduction on how to create a game loop using C & SDL. We'll start by discussing how to install SDL on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and we'll then proceed to create a very simple C application that uses SDL to control game objects. We'll briefly discuss how to create an SDL window, render simple objects on the screen, cap our framerate, and achieve framerate-independent movement.
