Free Fallin' Fred is a very simple clicking game. You see the airplane going
across the screen and after a while, Fred jumps. You click on Fred to open his
chute. If you fail to open the chute in time, poor Fred will be dead. Don't
let Fred die.
I used SDL_ttf to allow Fred to work with fonts. The startup screen and
endgame screen have been reworked. I also added a help screen and a credits
screen. The scoring system now works like a normal arcade scoring system and
shows up on screen during gameplay. I also switched from using regular
Makefiles to using autoconf and automake for installations.

I plan to show him landing safely when you open the chute and show him smashing
into the ground when you fail to open his chute. I would also like to add
sound, but unfortunately, I do not yet have any sounds. So if you can make
them, let me know:
