You're missing a whole lot of points with your changes. First, I want to be able to work on the game without sudo rights, so I must include SDL binaries and includes because I can't install SDL2-dev. Second, I also want to be able to distribute the game to machines without sudo rights, so that means no package (I could make one for those with sudo rights, but meh). For the record, I did try to run your Debian package on my system, it didn't work because you didn't include the SO for SDL2, hence why I did. Changing the default controls are useless and annoying, since it's originally up to my preference to have that (I did include a "configure controls" option for that purpose) and now merging the actually useful parts of your work will force me to include and then revert that part. Same thing about the makefiles, maybe you don't like it, but it's still my project and I made it work for my environment (you'll notice that it also works on every other environment, while your method won't work in mine).
Also, memcpy is slower than the way I did it because I'm copying unsigned ints and memcpy is copying chars, resulting in 4 times more RAM assignations (registers are indeed at least 32 bits). Reducing the resolution to 320x240 is indeed a good call, but not to make it fullscreen. I stand by my opinion that the game looks bad when scaled up too much, especially because that low resolution makes for huge pixels, and I would rather have SDL2 materially scale it to an adequate size (still 640x480 for me). I can still include a "fullscreen" key anyway, for those who really want it.
Basically all of your changes are irrelevant, except for maybe the home folder, which you'll have to tell me about. Being very not used to Linux, what are its uses ? What does it do, and why does nKaruga need it ?

and tell me how it looks. I haven't tried making it fullscreen for a while now (last time was before I switched from SDL 1.2 to SDL2), so if you could somehow show me how it looks, that'd be cool.
