For another games inspired by Arkanoid, see Arkanoid.

DX-Ball is a free Arkanoid-inspired game created by Michael P. Welch.

Later it was released some add-ons and standalone games looking like its predecessor - DX-Ball 2, Rival Ball and Super DX-Ball.

Music

The game use MDS files for music. Only 2 of them (Ackerlight and Ethno Papa) are used standartly; other plays if you press F5 during the gameplay, but never plays independently. Ethno Papa is for title, and Ackerlight is for highscore.

The MIDI Decoder, only-known program for playing standalone MDS, doesn't give proper sounding, so the files were converted to MIDI and then recorded.

The recordings are placed in the order used in the game. All of them loop.
