Lispbuilder 
Lispbuilder, or Common Lisp Application Builder, is an umbrella
project that provides cross-platform packages for building large,
interactive applications in Common Lisp. The most notable of these is
lispbuilder-sdl,
a wrapper for SDL, a library commonly used
for game development. Other packages provide 3D graphics and
animation, networking, text processing, and other miscellaneous
functionality.
Links
Quickstart for Ubuntu
Assuming you have a Common Lisp implementation with
Quicklisp installed, run the following
to install and run a lispbuilder-sdl example.
$ sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
$ sbcl # or your own Lisp
* (ql:quickload :lispbuilder-sdl-examples)
* (sdl-examples:mandelbrot)
Packages
All packages can be installed with
Quicklisp. Dependencies which are C/C++
libraries must be installed
separately.
