Hello, i am trying to release a project but i get these errors:

1>------ Build started: Project: M1S2, Configuration: Release Win32 ------
1> Engine.cpp
1> Include.cpp
1> main.cpp
1>Engine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _SDL_Init

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

When i looked this up on google, it said that what im trying to use cannot be found. The game runs in debug but when i try to release as an exe it doesn't. Please help.

You probably only specified SDL.lib and SDLmain.lib as additional libraries for Debug and not Release. Go to your project properties and add them to your linker inputs for Release as well.
