Debug binaries are in the `/bin/DEBUG_BUILDS/` directory with included debug databases. Specifically, there is zero need to compile the binaries for the labs, and these are the ones likely to give you trouble (because of missing Allegro libs). The remaining code should compile fine, as you can poke it and recompile as much as you'd like. # Usage -You may need to grab [this redistributable package from Microsoft](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555) to run the binaries if you don't have Visual Studio.

If you for same reason want to use the debug binaries, you will need the debug redistributable installed. This comes with Visual Studio 2010, and you can also find the stand-alone DLLs online. If this gives you trouble, I'd recommend either sticking to the release binaries, or compiling on your local version of Visual studio given the compile steps above.
