Where to Find Game Assets (Audio/Textures/Models/Etc)

Recommended Posts

Hey maybe my site could be included in your list. It's quite new but there's already a lot of totally free game assets on there already with more to come. they can even be used in commercial stuff. At he moment it's mostly 2d stuff, but I'm hoping to expand over the following year. If anybody is interested this is the site http://www.gamedeveloperstudio.com

I know right! I was double checking it the other night and its a totally open, which is great because I can use it for work without worry.

www.jamendo.com - I think these are free for non-commercial use.. It's an absolutely gigantic repository of artists and music covered under the creative commons license

Definitely worth checking out.

During GDC this company Sonniss put out a huge pack of royalty free sounds. I've been poking through it a bit and it seems like everything is really high quality.

If the DL link isn't working, there's a torrent linked from this reddit post http://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/2ynqyo/10gb_of_highquality_game_audio_free_download/

Hope this is the right place to post a request instead of a useful link.

 

Anyone have a resource where I can make an 8-bit ditty? I just need to string together maybe 10 or 15 notes that sound like they are coming out of an 8-bit system of some sort. It doesn't have to be super authentic, just want it to have the right sound. I could even use an 8-bit note repository and figure out Audacity if need be. This just seems like a thing someone would have made a handy tool for.

 

I found this, which is cool, but seems overwhelming for my needs. If I can't find much else, I might dig in and figure that out, though... just trying not to get distracted by even more toys.

Man, I don't think you could have given me a better tool for what I need! This is really slick and fun. Having a hard time recalling middle school band know-how, but I'm getting there. Thanks a bunch!

 

Also, I don't think Terry Cavanaugh can do anything else to make him cooler in my eyes than he already is.

The British Library put 1,000,000 images into the public domain recently. I donno how you'd use a lot of it, but there's some fun stuff in there. I guess if you needed to fill a million homes with 1-page books this collection would be perfect.

Albums, make it a little easier to navigate.

I'm very tempted to make my next game entirely from images from the british archives. I'd be interested to fail at creating a cohesive style from the collection, and let the collective work shape the game.
