For game development, there is no difference between FreeDOS and
other DOS versions. You can either read the classic resources from
the Nineties or work with modern toolchains such as OpenWatcom,
DJGPP, the Allegro library, old versions of SDL, etc.

That should work well :-)

You typically want to use VESA VBE, for example with linear frame
buffer and a 32-bit compiler. There are tutorials for that out
there, it is not specific to FreeDOS and works with any DOS :-)

As said, you may enjoy libraries such as Allegro.
