Whether you’re jumping into a portal or just loading a game, 8-bit game starting sounds are important to the retro style of video games. As I was creating my 8-bit sound pack, I discovered a few easy ways to create game starting sound effects that I want to share with you.
When I was creating my 8-bit sound pack I learned a lot of fundamental concepts that helped shape the direction of my sound design. These fundamental concepts are the building blocks for creating 8-bit sound design.
Have you ever wanted to recreate the classic Super Mario jump sound effect? With some trial and error and a bit of experimentation I figured out how to create an 8-bit jump sound effect that is very similar.
Just as weapon sounds can define a game, so can hits, punches, and kicks for games that have only melee combat as their primary combat system. In this post, I want to share with you how I went about create an 8-bit punch sound effect in Native Instruments Massive.
As I was creating my 8-bit retro sound pack I knew that gun sound effects were going to be an important component. Weapon sounds often make up the heart of games. In this post I want to share the results of my experimentation and findings for creating 8-bit styled gun sound effects.
Recently, I was in my studio planning my 8-bit sound pack when I decided I wanted to include explosion sounds. I asked myself: “how do you create 8-bit explosion sounds?”. In this post I share the results and findings of my experimentation.
