lite-C

Lite-C is a "C" based programming language for quickly and easily putting together graphics or multimedia applications, such as 2D or 3D computer games. Sounds, images, movies, user interfaces, 2D and 3D models, lighting, collision detection, and rigid body physics are already a native part of the language. So you can achieve results with a few lines in lite-C that would require hundreds of source code lines with other C/C++ compilers.

Lite-C is ideal when you don't want to concentrate on programming, but on the content. It's also ideal for learning programming. Its syntax is similar to the C programming language, but much more fun to learn. Lite-C supports DLLs and COM (Component Object Model), the Windows API, OpenGL, and DirectX. The lite-C package contains the development environment with editor, compiler, and debugger, a model editor for 3D content, a beginner's tutorial into programming, and many samples of DirectX, OpenGL, and other multimedia programs.
