Unzip it to C:\MinGW32, and make sure you preserve subdirectories.

Have you been reading the documentation? After that I think all you do is

cd c:\mingw32\allegro
fix.bat mingw32
make
make install

Oy... yet more evidence that I need to write a python executable that installs Allegro! GHA!

And yeah, the basic steps are exactly what kazzmir stated... assuming you have the enviroment variables set correctly.

No need for a installer for Allegro.
If you cant read the installation instructions or the manual, are you really programmer material? :)

Well, deps, we all have to start somewhere. I had troubles with reading the docs when I started out, and look at me now! A functional member of society! Almost.

And that's a funny, funny sig. "C code. C code run. Run, code, run! PLEASE" it says! Classic!

But surenrao... just do what the docs say. They'll guide you through.
