The Global Game Jam is almost upon us!<\/p>\n

Reserve the last week-end of January (from the 26th<\/sup> to the 28th<\/sup>)! Find a location close to you (or start your own game jam site), join a team and create an awesome game in a limited time, having a lot of fun and learning cool development tricks along the way!<\/p>\n

And guess what? That game will need some roaring sound effects! So, here are 5 reasons why DSP Anime is ideally suited to create audio during a Game Jam<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

1.Time-saver<\/h3>\n

A very visual interface and intuitive workflow<\/strong> (select a category, a type of sound, and edit the parameters) help you create sound effects in a couple of clicks<\/strong>: an undeniable advantage in the fast-paced environment of the game jam!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\n

2.Game-Specific<\/h3>\n

The categories of sounds that can be generated cover a wide range of game sound effects<\/strong>: magic, fight, events, emotions, moves, pets, locations, elements, impacts\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

3.Sound Synthesizer<\/h3>\n

DSP Anime uses procedural audio to generate the sounds, allowing you to create many variations automatically to fight repetitiveness<\/strong>. Perfect for games!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\"a08\"<\/p>\n

\n

4.Multi-format<\/h3>\n

The generated sounds can be saved in the Wave, Aiff, MP3, Ogg Vorbis, and Flac formats<\/strong>, ensuring that you will be able to play them, whatever engine your team is using.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\"a05\"<\/p>\n

\n

5.Export to Middleware<\/h3>\n

DSP Anime exports towards audio middleware (ADX2, FMOD Studio, Wwise) and game middleware (Unity, GameMaker)<\/strong>, going as far as to automatically generate scripts<\/strong> to play the sounds in C# or JavaScript.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Oh, one last thing: not only is DSP Anime very affordable<\/strong>, but you can also use the sounds you created in any of your\u00a0games\u00a0for free<\/strong>, even if your game jam project becomes a commercial hit (please send us a postcard from your very own tropical island when that happens)!<\/p>\n
