I need to know how to add mp3 files into my game. (They are pixelated) Is there an extension anyone knows of or a way to make my mp3s into a more portable format?

I want to make a new game that for once is NOT smash-related.

Thanks!

I tried. It doesn’t work though for some reason. Maybe ask extension creator to explain how.

You cannot import MP3 files into Arcade, nor could you play them.

If you have a MIDI file, you can try my [ArcadeMIDI](https://forum.makecode.com/t/arcademidi-extension/15079) extension. Or use RTTTL like what @isoffline said.

Ok, I tried. Tool works fine and MIDI picture was uploaded but it didn’t sound right. I did use percussion… maybe the sound emulator won’t let me? But let me tell you, @UnsignedArduino, it works.
