I am trying to run this and am running into some issues. I'm a newbie so please help me get going.

First, is this supposed to run from DrRacket? I installed the r-cade succesfully but when I run this, I get error:

ffi-lib: couldn't open "csfml-audio-2.dll" (The specified module could not be found.; errid=126)



You need to download and install the CSFML libraries yourself. For audio you also need OpenAL and libsndfile. Links to all are in the README.


Thanks. I am currently stuck at this step. I did the raco pkg install csfml and apparently it was installed but i get the same error. Also I tried downloading the csfml bindings but don't know what to do with it as the instructions assume prior knowledge or are too cryptic to me. I'm giving up for now. Maybe I'll try again maybe not.


By the way, this hurdles won't help with kids picking this up. Sadly..


I've updated the README to point to a DEPENDENCIES.md file that details installation instructions of 3rd party libraries needed for each of the platforms. It needs some love for Linux, though, if anyone is up to the task.
