trying to build a program from source?

Hello, i'm trying to build an snes emulator on kali linux called higen.
I followed instruction on the site and installed the dependencies with this line :
sudo apt-get install build-essential libgtk2.0-dev libpulse-dev \
mesa-common-dev libgtksourceview2.0-dev libcairo2-dev libsdl1.2-dev \
libxv-dev libao-dev libopenal-dev libudev-dev
and then i tried the make command in the source directory of the emulator with this:
cd ~/higan-master
make -C higan
and then i got this
make: Entering directory '/home/fook/higan/higan-master/higan'
GNUmakefile:10: *** "unsupported platform". Stop.
make: Leaving directory '/home/fook/higan/higan-master/higan'
i tried looking on the web but without success
What does "unsupported platform means"? Is it because i'm on kali? or is it the gcc that's not good? And how can i know what platform i need?
