A Simple, 2d cross-platform graphics library for c or c++? [closed]

Answer 1

One neat engine I came across is Angel-Engine. Info from the project site:

• Cross-Platform functionality (Windows and Mac)
• Actors (game objects with color, shape, responses, attributes, etc.)
• Texturing with Transparency
• "Animations" (texture swapping at defined intervals)
• Rigid-Body Physics
  • A clever programmer can do soft-body physics with it
• Sound
• Text Rendering with multiple fonts
• Particle Systems
• Some basic AI (state machine and pathfinding)
• Config File Processing
• Logging
• Input from a mouse, keyboard, or Xbox 360 controller
  • Binding inputs from a config file
• Python Scripting
  • In-Game Console

Some users (including me) have succesfully (without any major problems) compiled it under linux.
