When I try to compile this program using make command, it fails. I think I have all the neccessary libraries for this. Here is the screen shot of the trerminal with the compile fail.

enter image description here

And here is a part of the readme file:

        <=============SETTUP=============>

    To install the game, you will need the GNU GCC (G++) compiler as 
well as the SDL library v1.2 or greater and SDL_image extension 
library (for quicker and more versatile image loading) and SDL_ttf (for using true type fonts).

    After unpacking the archive, open up a terminal window,
browse to the folder where you unpacked and type in "make". The source
files have now been compiled, and you can now run the program by typing
./Invaders.

What should I do?
