(Note: may need to edit `gosu/cmake/build/cmake_install.cmake` to change `set(CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX "/usr/local")` to `set(CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX "/usr")`)
2. Run your project: `crystal run --link-flags -lgosu-ffi YOU_PROGRAM.cr`
### Windows
1. Build [gosu](https://github.com/gosu/gosu) using Visual Studio or MSBuild (GosuFFI project)
2. Copy `Gosu.lib` and `gosu-ffi.lib` into the /lib directory of your crystal-lang install
3. Copy `SDL2.dll` and `gosu-ffi.dll` into your project directory
4. Run your project: `crystal run YOUR_PROGRAM.cr`
