I am going to get Allegro 5 from https://www.allegro.cc/files/ but i dont know what version I should get.  I recently got Codeblocks, so should i just get the newest WinGW version?

Note the allegro binaries and your MinGW version should match. So, if you use "MinGW 4.6.1 (TDM) - zip, 7z", then you should use TDM4.6.1. For more information, you should ask such question on allegro site, right?
If some piece of memory should be reused, turn them to variables (or const variables).
If some piece of operations should be reused, turn them to functions.
If they happened together, then turn them to classes.
