![]() ![]() So I got to thinking, what about filmmakers, game developers, and YouTubers who already have great video and artwork but need great music and SFX? Are there equally-powerful free music libraries out there to search and download from? didn't suck! Not only did I end up finishing my game without spending a penny, but I could still sell it! I spent days researching online and long story short I found dozens of websites providing free commercially-usable resources for my project.Īnd imagine my surprise when a few of these free resources. Well, I did what I always do when I have a problem that seems impossible to overcome: How do I immerse the player in my story without quality sound effects, artwork, and no budget to pay for them? I also did not have the budget to hire an audio engineer or an artist to provide me with SFX and the artwork needed for the game, so I had a dilemma. I could handle the music, the writing, and the code, but there was no avoiding the obvious fact that I was terrible at drawing and I did not have the field-recording equipment necessary to record my own sound effects. Many of you reading this are probably quite similar to me and are doing most of the work for your project yourself. I was designing everything in-house: music, SFX, graphics, writing, everything. ![]() My career is in electronic music production, but I also love game design and have always wanted to create my own video game, so 2 years ago I decided to produce my first interactive horror visual novel. Quick story about why I am writing this article: The question is: Can you still have a great commercial soundtrack and great SFX for your project utilizing only free resources? You need SFX and a music soundtrack but you might not have the budget to hire a professional composer or audio engineer. I might make a separate thread on those at some point.Įxamples of some stuff I made over the years.So you're a filmmaker entering post-production on your film, a game developer working on music and audio triggers or perhaps a YouTuber wanting to enhance your videos. The resources I made for MV specifically are not there. Some can of course be used in MV too if scaled. If you require any help in getting any of these to work in-game, feel free to ask either here or via a PM, and I'll be happy to help.Īll the stuff in a single folder to make it easier for you to download: Since many of these were ReStaff releases, please don't repost these resources on other sites. At the moment I contribute to RM Coalition releases, so I might be able to do your request for those. You can provide suggestions if you wish, though I can't promise I'll get round to making these. For the Tiles, Character Sprites, Faces, and Animated Battlers, also credit Enterbrain / Kadokawa. Mentioning me in the credits would be highly appreciated. Unless stated otherwise, all of these resources can be used both commercially and non-commercially. Many of these have been released in previous ReStaff releases, however, there'll also be plenty of new stuff here as well. This thread contains all resources I've made or edited together and released for public use. If you have trouble accessing it, please let me know via a PM, as I've been noticing the access requests quite late. I've updated the download link, as I've been getting email requests to be granted permission to access the files in it, so hopefully after the update it should let you access them directly without requiring permission. ![]()
