Honestly rather amazed by the game sound design from 1995. Especially engine stuff and doppler! 🫡
In 1995 how do you render polygonal tires in a fully 3D racing game? You don't! Just make them 32(?) directional sprites, and they are gonna look great!

Going to try making a mini series of videos highlighting some game audio gold, will likely be showing reaper workflow gold too! Posting the first short today about Astrobot. Picking one thing from that game was impossible. #gameaudio

A new #ReaperDAW script for rendering! Provides a simpler UI to export instead of render region matrix- works similarly to other scripts with created folder items. AND it's free! #gameaudio

Just seen Wicked 🎬, the sound design and Foley was so whimsical in places! I've never heard Foley stand out with character like that before. Loved it all.

I was lucky enough to do an ambient remix for Planet Coaster 2's Soundtrack. J.J.'s music is so immensely inspiring this is one of my favourite contributions.

I've been playing quite a lot of COD since it came out last Friday, gameplay has been really fun and there's some wonderful sound design- especially with special abilities and ambiences in zombies 🙌🎖️

I'm so excited for everyone to hear what we've been working on! We have poured hours into audio details for the theme park fans (like myself). All of which is supported by an amazing dedicated audio code and tech team. More soon- 😋
The #gameaudio team at Frontier Developments spend the last month perfecting the audio for Planet Coaster 2.
We've been mixing our most detailed content-management-strategy soundscape to date. Thousands of emitters and voices work together to create an intricate first-person soundscape.
