This was a project from Full Sail University called The Blacksmith. There were two parts to this project; a cinematic and the gameplay. I designed all of the sounds for both. I did the ambiences, stingers, footsteps, foley, ADR, and sound design. All of the sounds were implemented using WWise. I did not create any part of the game other than the audio you hear.
Check out the game here.
