Hello to all hope you are alright.

My question is simple i am coding on c++ for about 1 month and i am using
allegro for my games but to continue i want to use some better graphics.
So for sprites i have to use sdl or something else?I am so confused i am internested in making games like Ds games which they use sprites all the time and i am so confused.

I know it's very hard to create this kind of games and i don't have the apropriate software but at least i want to know something i can use cause i look all the sites for sprites and etc and have no clue how to use png and sprite sheets.

Any suggestions would be helpfull.

Thank you in advance.

You could check out my beginner tutorials for SDL located here on Dream in Code.

I'm not up to sprite animation yet in the tutorials but it will be coming soon and these will hopefully get you started.

Well I think SDL is great but other people may think not, you can use sprites with allegro as well but I find the syntax a little strange.

You could try to implement some sprites using Allegro and then try SDL, its really up to you.
