Flying plane SDL2 animation

This project is written in C and uses CMake as a build system.
It shows how we can make a basic animation using SDL2 : Flying plane.

It could be used as a base for any SDL2 game. Just fork it, clone it and execute the rename_project.sh script. You will be prompted to enter the new project name, the new executable name and the new git repository, but you can keep the autodetected values. Finally, just commit and push the result to your repository.
