About

Maelstrom Marathon Sounds is a fan-made sound mod that drops effects from Bungie's Marathon series into Ambrosia Software's classic asteroid-blaster Maelstrom. It is a small but characteristic piece of mid-1990s Mac shareware culture, where Maelstrom's open sound resources invited endless re-skinning.What it doesThe package replaces Maelstrom's built-in effects with weapon, explosion, and ambience samples drawn from Marathon, giving the arcade shooter a distinctly Pfhor-flavored audio palette.How it installsSound mods of this era typically replaced or supplemented the snd resources inside the Maelstrom Sounds file using ResEdit, or shipped as a drop-in replacement Sounds file.RequirementsYou need a working copy of Maelstrom for classic Mac OS for this mod to be useful; on its own it is just a collection of audio resources.Preservation noteDetailed authorship and exact release date for this mod are not currently confirmed in our notes, and have been left unstated rather than guessed.
