Sound Effects for my platform Game

on: August 10, 2018, 03:25:42 am
Hi, I'm making a game and I need sound effects for my character and other objects in the game. Can anyone give me a range of  how much it costs to make 1 sound effect. I don't want 8-bit retro sounds. I want more realistic. And also for people that have made games, where do you get your sounds from? Do you guys hire people from pixelation or do you guys go on different sites? Do you get free sounds? I'm making my first game and I need help guys. I highly appreciate those that help me. Thank you.

Also, I'm going to leave some links below of games that have sounds effects that I like and would want for my game just so you guys get an understanding of what kind of sound effects I want.

I've used freesound.org very long time ago, it's a kind of general-purpose open library (musical instruments ? ambient sounds ?) so a lot of resources may be not game-y enough.
opengameart.org has a "sound" category.

If you find a sound that is mostly what you were looking for, there are many programs that let you easily cut, change pitch, and modify "envelope" (fade in, fade out...). It's quite fun!
