The build script also uses lipo to merge the executables for each architecture I’m targeting (e.g. armv7 and aarch64 for non-simulator devices) into a single, universal binary.

On top of that, there are various iOS-y things that need to happen before my application’s main method is called. SDL2 provides the Objective-C code that does all of that. In a C or C++ game, SDL2 renames main to SDL_main, and then [inserts its own mai
