  • Happy New Year!

    I hope everyone didn’t drink too much…ha ha. ;-)

    To kick off 2021, brand new seamless texture images are waiting for you on these pages:

    TXR – Ground – Cartoon

    soundimage.org/txr-ground-cartoon

    TXR – Metal – Cartoon

    soundimage.org/txr-metal-cartoon

    TXR – Rock/Stone – Cartoon

    soundimage.org/txr-rockstone-cartoon

    The images aren’t necessarily “cartoony” but are more graphical and less realistic than my other images.

    NEWS

    For those of you using my music tracks, my History page now has Ogg versions of my tracks on it. Ogg tracks have several advantages over MP3 tracks:

    -They loop better in game engines (MP3 tracks sometimes need to be edited.)

    -They sound amazing…almost as good as the original WAV tracks while being much smaller in size.

    -They are a cool way to support my efforts. Give them a try!

    In the meantime, if you find my free assets helpful, please consider making a small donation on my website to help support my efforts.

    Have a good week!

    More Ogg Music Packs are ready!

    A good number of game developers have asked me if they can download multiple music tracks all at once instead of one at a time, so I’m making Ogg music packs available that include all of the tracks for any given page once that page is full and I’m no longer adding any more tracks to it.

    You’ll see a button near the top of the page if a music pack is available.

    Presently, music packs are available for the following pages:

    Action 1

    Chiptunes 1-3

    Fantasy 1-10

    Dark/Ominous

    Horror / Surreal

    Looping Music

    Puzzle Music 1-5

    Sci-Fi / Space

    Thanks, I'm glad you like it! Please feel free to share! And I'll make the correction. :-)

    NEWS

    Here’s some cool news:

    Free looping video clips are on the way that you’ll be able to use in games, for website backgrounds, Zoom backgrounds and all kinds of other things.

    Here’s an example of how I used one as a background for my other website:

    dunesisland.org/episodes

    I think it really brings the page to life in a way that static images just can’t.

    Anyhow, I’ll be opening those pages soon. Stay tuned.
