1) CREATING THE UNITY LEVEL

When building this level in Unity, I aimed to create an interesting environment where I could practice different audio implementation techniques. As a result, the level’s ambience and other sounds are affected by five game locations: Cave, Outside, Alienforrest, Ship and Temple.

2) SOUND DESIGN

As I created the level, I was able to list the sounds that would need to be created. This was an important step as it allowed me to keep track of the all the assets and work more efficiently. With the total assets now known, each was created in Pro Tools using a combination of samples, automation and effects.

Below are some sound design examples of the enemy Robot in this scene.

3) FMOD AND UNITY INTEGRATION

With the level and sounds created, the next step was integrating the sounds into Unity. This was done using FMOD.

Below are some examples of the Robot events in FMOD.
