Sound Effects
One thing I’m sure folks have noticed whilst trawling the web for free to use sounds in games is, really, there’s not actually that many usable ones out there. Certainly, very little in the way of game related ones.
For my own games, I spend far too much time stressing over every element, and I figure that sound is one of the most important aspects for any game - the wrong sound effects in the wrong place can have an incredibly jarring effect on the player. And so, I spend a good proportion of the time for each game I write writing new sound effects for it. Tunewise, I’m very lucky - if I can’t come up with a suitable tune or piece of music that fits, I can always call on my good friend Gordon to fill in the blanks (I still love the music he did for Beast 3, probably my favourite part of the game) so I never really have to worry too much about that aspect.
Anyway, to help at least populate the net with a few different sound effects to the ones currently available, I’ve ragged out all the sound effects used in G-Force, Beast 2 & 3 and what would have been the sound effects for Vector Infector had the game not gone tits. I’m not sure how useful they’ll be to folks given each sound is tailored to a specific event in a game, but they’re out there now and free to use.
