Overview

Summary

Audio is a huge part of the gaming experience, and it can immediately make your game feel either AAA quality or “someone’s first game” quality. In this lesson, I show you how to find free commercial-use sound effects which you can mix and enhance. I also show you how to find inexpensive, high-quality stock music that will elevate your game to the next level.
