Building LÖVE, no yum package DevIL-devel available for CentOS 6, needing build guidance

Question

I am trying to build the LÖVE framework for CentOS 6, using an i686 architecture. I have had very little success building the dependency DevIL-devel. I could not find any existing yum package for LÖVE, so that is why I attempted to build in the first place.

I have found some rpms, DevIL-devel-1.7.8-8mgc26.i686.rpm, which requires further dependencies, found in DevIL-1.7.8-8mgc26.i686.rpm and DevIL-ILUT-1.7.8-8mgc26.i686.rpm.

These however, have dependencies of their own, which seem to require each other and unavailable dependencies.

Here, libtiff and libpng are installed, so not sure what other package(s) are needed.

The packages you're trying to install seem to be for Mageia Cauldron (mgc), so I doubt they will work on CentOS. Even if you have the dependencies installed, I imagine they won't be where a Mageia package is expecting to find them.
