Dink graphics are already sprites.
It looks like some of the others have interpreted your question as about creating a DMOD, but it sounds like you are thinking of modifying the FreeDink engine. Contrary to yeoldtoaste, I think if you are intending a career in computer science then charting a trip to the moon sounds like a great idea. I don't know if using FreeDink as a starting point is a good idea or not. If you do, you'll probably eventually be motivated to rewrite all of it.

Whatever you do, get your hands dirty and do it the hard way. You learn more that way
Then you won't ask the questions you did, because you'd realise you can program an engine to do anything if you know how to.
