Music Track: New Grounds from Beat Slayer

The Reignbreaker demo by Studio Fizbin is finally here! 💥 We're beyond excited to see it out in the wild and to have worked on the music and sound design for this medieval-meets-cyberpunk tactical roguelike over the past 1.5 years! 🦾 🎶
It's a fresh mix of strategy, deck-building, and action-packed combat - so if that's your thing, go check out the demo and don't forget to wishlist!

It was jamming time! 🕹️
Over the weekend we have been participating at the Global Gam Jam and created numerous sounds, music and vocal fx! 🔊
From designing a musical fish burb game, creating great VR experiences with bubbles, writing and producing a growling metal song to asian inspired musical ambience to inflate a frog until they burst.
Thank you so much for all the great and creative ideas, funny moments and contributions on all ends. It always great to help out each other whenever we can to make something cool together. ✨
Also big thanks for Gamestorm for organizing!
Here a few impressions with!

The Path of Game Audio: The AudioCreatures Road Map to Success! 🐺🎧
Creating an immersive and emotional experience for games isn’t just about making great sounds. It’s about taking the right steps at the right time to ensure your game hits all the right notes - literally! That’s why we’re excited to share this Game Audio Road Map with you. It visually breaks down the journey into clear, actionable stages, that should help you along your game’s development process:
1️⃣ Prototype: Discussions about audio direction and design begin. What’s the tone of your world? What kind of sound palette will bring it to life?
2️⃣ Pre-Production: Early sound and music assets are created to help shape the vibe and establish the foundation of your game’s audio identity.
3️⃣ Start of Production: Deliverables are planned, and the audio direction is locked in - so everything aligns perfectly with your vision.
4️⃣ In Production: The magic happens here! Music and sound effects are created, implemented, and refined to make your game world feel alive and immersive.
5️⃣ Pre-Launch & Release: Final recordings, QA, bug fixing, and mixing ensure your audio is polished and flawless for launch day.
At AudioCreatures, we specialize in guiding developers along this journey and crafting sounds that bring game worlds to life. Whether you’re just starting out with a prototype or are in full production, we’re here to help.
💡 Curious about how much game audio might cost for your project? We’re happy to provide a free cost estimate - no strings attached! Let’s talk and explore how we can make your game sound incredible.
🎮 Let’s create an unforgettable experience together! Drop us a message or leave a comment below.

Being left alone 😿 -
That’s how it often feels when things settle down a bit and you are in an industry that can be stressful and exhausting for many reasons. At AudioCreatures, we try to always be there for every team member and collaborator who may be struggling. This happens to all of us - seniors, juniors etc. - sometimes, we all need help to overcome the challenges we face though. 🫂
In our work we often spend a lot of time in our „audio production caves“. However, having people around when you need them - someone you can talk to, write to, or simply have listen to you - is simply important to us.
As a creative collective, the exchange between each other can be crucial while still preserving everyone’s individual nature. 👨🎨
We hope that, even during difficult times, people can support one another when needed. Never hesitate to reach out in such situations. More often than not, people or creatures are happy to help when they can. 💜
Wish you all a wonderful weekend! - Markus

Congratulations to Sparrow Games UG Games and @obergenie42 for winning 2nd place in the Community Award at GamesGround 2024 with their „puzzle game with the most epic soundtrack.“ 🎶 Massive kudos to Benjamin Scharff and Daniel Chluba for pouring their hearts into the game and showcase and receiving this well-deserved recognition!
Also, a big shoutout to the amazing THE ROOF Interactive team for their game Seaward, which won the Pitch Competition hosted by Stiftung Digitale Spielekultur! It’s fantastic to see this project getting the resonance it deserves - it was already extremely nice to see them at Gamescom! ⛵
Highlights from Our Activities - We were thrilled to host three panels this year:
-) On Friday, our very own Markus Zierhofer joined a panel on Best Practices in Video Game Localization and Cultural Adaptation alongside the brilliant Charly Harbord, Kate Edwards, Marie Amigues, and Marek Brunner.
-) On Saturday, the lovely Lara Klimm from @bitfallstudios participated in a presentation and panel discussion about the Live Score Berlin Initiative. Together with conductor Christian Köhler, they highlighted collaborations with local institutions and raised awareness about the importance of live music in video games. 🎻
-) Later that evening, with the amazing Gabriel Gallardo-Alarcon, we hosted another hands-on Audio Workshop. It was so inspiring to see aspiring audio enthusiasts of all ages, some participants were like 12 years old?? 🤯
Thank you so much everyone for organizing!
