November 1, 2019

Game Off is our annual game jam, where participants spend the month of November creating games based on a secret theme. The themes for 2017 and 2018 were Throwback and Hybrid respectively, and they gave rise to some great games!

This year’s theme will announced on Friday, November 1, at 13:37 pm PT.

Join the jam now and be among the first to know this year’s theme.

🕹 How to participate

Create a game based on the theme over the next month.
Sign up for a free GitHub account if you don’t already have one. It’s free!
Join the Game Off on itch.io. If you don’t already have an itch.io account, log in with your GitHub account.
Create a new public GitHub repository to store the source code and any assets you’re able to share for your entry and push your changes before December 1 13:37 PDT.
Submit your game through itch.io.

🕹 Help—I’ve never created a game before!

With so many free, open source game engines and tutorials available online, there’s never been an easier (or more exciting!) time to try out game development.

Are you…

Into JavaScript? You might be interested in Phaser.
Comfortable with C++ or C#? Look at Godot, Unity and Unreal Engine.
Proficient with Python? Check out Pygame or Godot (Godot uses GDScript, which is similar to Python).
Dangerous with Java? Take a look at libGDX.
In love with Lua? Check out LÖVE or Defold. Like retro games too? Drop everything and check out LIKO-12!

Do you really like retro games? Maybe you can…

Hack on a Roguelike dungeon crawler in JavaScript or Haskell.
Crank out a text adventure in or some interactive fiction with Clojure or Ink (similar to Markdown).
Craft that 8-bit console game you always fantasized about with PICO-8, Pixel Vision 8, TIC-80 (Lua), BASIC8 (Basic), or Pyxel (Python).

Participate yourself or as a team. Looking for a team, or want to start one? Check out the Crowdforge page to find people to jam with.

THE WORLD’S EASIEST WAY TO GET INDEPENDENT SOUND EFFECTS:

A Sound Effect gives you easy access to an absolutely huge sound effects catalog from a myriad of independent sound creators, all covered by one license agreement
– a few highlights:

Destruction & Impact Metamorphosis Play Track 2328 sounds included
Rated 5.00 out of 5
~~$190~~ $165
Add to Wishlist

Metamorphosis is a huge collection of recorded source, synthesized material and hybrid sounds. The library was created to cover a wide range of themes, with rich textures, aggressive impacts and a large selection of pass bys, bass drops, pyrotechnics and many more types of material.

All of the Recorded Section was captured at 384KHz with microphones capable of recording up to 200KHz among with more conventional mics. The resulting assets are sounds that can be stretched to new extremes for greater sound design opportunities.
In many cases I took the liberty to slow down the assets while editing the sounds to deliver what I thought was the most useful version of a given recording though in most cases I have also included other takes at the original 384KHz sample rate to get the best of both worlds.

All of the Synthesized Content was created in Serum while the Hybrid Section was created by manipulating the Recorded and Synthesized sounds.

Techniques such as morphing were used to blur the lines in between the nature of the two sources, making for ambiguous yet extremely versatile material that can be employed on both realistic and abstract designs.

Bonus: Two extra libraries included for free: This library also includes two additional releases from Mattia Cellotto - for free: Crunch Mode delivers 230 crunchy sounds made with a variety of vegetables, fresh bread, pizza crust and a selection of frozen goods. The Borax Experiment gets you 158 squishy, gory, slimy and gooey sounds.

Animals & Creatures Animal Hyperrealism Vol II Play Track Over 2000 sounds included
Rated 5.00 out of 5
~~$170~~ $140
Add to Wishlist

Animal Hyperrealism Vol II is a library containing sounds themed animal vocalisations, from real to designed creatures totaling more than 2000 individual sounds in 283 files.

The sounds were partly recorded with animals trained for media production, partly recorded in zoos and wildlife centers. The asset list includes but is not limited to: amur leopards, bottlenose dolphins, californian sealions, pacific walruses, red ruffed lemurs, owls, parrots, dwarf little fruit bats, hamsters, guinea pigs and many more.

The content has been recorded at 192KHz with a Sanken CO100K plus a Sennheiser 8050 for center image and a couple of Sennheiser MKH8040 for stereo image.
A special section of the library features samples recorded at 384KHz. For these sounds an additional microphone was employed, specifically the CMPA by Avisoft-Bioacoustics which records up to 200 KHz. This microphone was actually used to record most of the library but the 384KHz format was preserved only where energy was found beyond 96KHz not to occupy unnecessary disk space.
All files are delivered as stereo bounce of these for mics, though in some instances an additional couple of CO100K was added to the sides.
The resulting ultrasonic spectrum is rich and allows for truly extreme manipulation of the content.

Environments Ocean Shore, Harbor & Zodiac Play Track 55 sounds included, 193 mins total $39
Add to Wishlist

The sounds presented in this pack were recorded during the shooting of a short film taking place by the ocean. We shot in different places, in the marina, on a boat, in an industrial harbor area, in a wharehouse of boat maintenance.

Even if some sounds of the pack are not fully in the theme, I voluntarily left them because they were recorded at the same time and in order to serve the film.

The most represented sounds in this pack are those recorded in the marina, the wind blowing in the masts of the boats, at the seaside, as well as a detailed recording of the zodiac boat.

Sounds were recorded using Sound Devices 633, in 24bits 96Khz, Schoeps CCM 21 mic in ORTF, with an extra CCM 41 for the center (LCR), and using an extra contact mic to record the motor of the zodiac boat.

All the sounds are raw (No EQ, No Compression, No Fx).

This pack contains 40 sounds, 80 files, for the ambiences.

It also contains 15 sounds, 39 files for the zodiac boat.

All embedded with detailed metadata on Soundminer.
Horror Motion Mode Play Track 142 sounds included ~~$35~~ $25
Add to Wishlist

Welcome to “MOTION MODE”, an intense collection of sounds to induce movement and evoke excitement in your production.

You will find whooshes, transitions, noises, granular textures, movements, stutters and hits with a powerful Sci-fi feel.

Special attention was put in the dynamics of the sounds to ensure the creation of an energetic pack aimed to enhance atmospheres, add movement and enrich musical compositions.

If you liked some of my previous libraries like “Dodge this” and “The Transition” you are gonna love this one.
