Breakout Note Cracker HN 1.61

Breakout Note Cracker HN 1.61 is a powerful and easy to use tool which is designed to give you an advanced way to not only play but also learn much more about music.

An educational computer game featuring musical symbols (rests and notes), an elephant, and a ball! The elephant must keep the ball from dropping off the screen (if it does, you lose one life), and if you manage to have him catch the bouncing notes set in motion by the ball, you win points!

Between each level, you get a chance to double your score by correctly answering a mini-quiz. But give a wrong answer and you'll lose half your points! Breakout Note Cracker HN is a game for people of all ages that the entire family will enjoy. It remains fun to play even after you're done learning. It features 4 gaming speeds and a Hi-Score list that keeps track of the 10 highest scores.

Major Features:

1. Just as there are notes of different durations (whole note, half note etc.), there are rests of different durations.
   
2. For each note, there exists a rest of equivalent duration; for each rest, there exists a note of equivalent duration.
   
3. The breakout game Note Cracker teaches you to recognize different types of rests and the notes to which they correspond. Whenever the ball hits a rest, it cracks it open and a note of equivalent duration comes out. For instance, if the ball hits a half rest, a half note comes out.
   
4. The notes bounce all over the screen. To win points, you must hit them with the elephant
   If you let the ball drop off the screen, you lose one life
   
5. After you've completed a level, you must take a mini-quiz about the type of rest you've just played with (and learn about).
6. Depending on your answer, you will win or lose a life and a number of points
7. Four gaming speeds are available: Adagio - Moderato - Allegro - Presto
8. The game can be made easier for very young players by reducing (with a simple click) the number of rests to crack open on any given level
9. You can change the background with your own pictures
10.  At the end of each game, a Hi-Score List shows the names of the ten players with the highest scores!
