There are some issues, when you run the Windows version of Speedy Blupi/Eggbert on Linux via Wine.

Usually wine outpus this error:

0194:err:winediag:MIDIMAP_drvOpen No software synthesizer midi port found, Midi sound output probably won't work.

How to fix it: Maybe Qsynth or an alternative fixes this issue

Note: Sound game effect works. Format for sound is WAV. Format for background music is MIDI.

How to fix it: Installing directplay: winetricks directplay
