======Project: PONG======

Honestly Casey has to help me a great deal to make this.  I give a big thanks to him. 
=====Objectives=====
State the purpose of this project. What is the point of this project? What do we hope to accomplish by undertaking it?

=====Prerequisites=====
http://www.lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/

Of Course CASEY, I think he may be annoyed how many times I bugged him.
=====Background=====
Old games lol
