“链接器输入文件未使用，因为链接未完成”是什么意思？(What does “linker input file unused because linking not done” mean? (C makefile))

 我已经创建了一个makefile来编译和链接我的程序，但是，我无法弄清楚为什么我会收到此错误。 这与SDL有关吗？ 
 
GCC = gcc
CFLAGS = -c -std=c99 -lm -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -O3 -Wfloat-equal -g
SDL = -lSDL2 -lSDL2_ttf -lSDL2_image -lSDL2_mixer

all: ./game

game: global.o display.o player.o entities.o controls.o sound.o menu.o
    $(GCC) $(CFLAGS) global.o display.o player.o entities.o controls.o sound.o menu.o -o game

global.o: global.c
    $(GCC) $(CFLAGS) $(SDL) global.c

display.o: display.c
    $(GCC) $(CFLAGS) $(SDL) display.c

player.o: player.c
    $(GCC) $(CFLAGS) $(SDL) player.c

entities.o: entities.c

controls.o: controls.c

sound.o: sound.c

menu.o: menu.c

clean:
    rm *o game

I have created a makefile to compile and link my program, however, I can't figure out why I am getting this error. Is it to do with SDL?
