Discuss C versions and select the target:

Choice:

May be worth noting from Raylib's repository...

Written in plain C code (C99) using PascalCase/camelCase notation

I think C99 would be a good version to go with. As Matt pointed out, it's the same version that raylib is written in, so maybe it'll help eliminate any possible incompatibilities. While C11 & C18 may have a few minor features that C99 doesn't posses, I don't think we'd really need them, since most of the differences seem to pertain to aspects that are insignificant to xboing, such as some macros & threads.
