This patch implements customizable background music and sound effects for crack-attack 1.1.9 using SDL_mixer. For enjoy this hack download the original code from here (sorry, this is available only for Linux yet) and apply my patch with patch -p1. You can also download sounds from links at bottom of this page.

I’ve borrowed the music from BB demo (see AA project) and sound effects from lbreakout2 and gl-117 games.

Note: If make fails, just retry make :-)

OK, now install some music files at /usr/local/share/crack-attack/music/ or $(HOME)/.crack-attack/music/ and you can enjoy background music. Custom sound effects may be installed at /usr/local/share/crack-attack/sounds/ or $(HOME)/.crack-attack/sounds/
