Many, many years ago there were these offers on the internet, you buy a CD full of various samples for a very modest price and you can use these in you commercial games. I'm not sure wher to find these nowadays (all I see are some sites that sell sound samples separate for like $2.00 per piece).

Generally, where can I get not too expensive sound effects I could use in my games without any strings attached?

ehh I have this thing called 1001 sound effects. their not bad at all but I don't remember where I got it from. I could upload it but I don't know if they are royalty free or not. :/

Try googling 1001 sound effects. As long as you are not trying to make a profit, you should be ok when using other peoples assets.

I also can make you some sound effects if you would like. Royalty free.  Grin

HUGE library of royalty-free sounds.
EXTREMELY useful tool to create your own sounds.

One small tiny letter and such a huge difference Smiley

BTW, I have not receive confirmation email from their website. Is it because of my crappy email provider or they have some trouble with this? Anyone registered recently on that site maybe?

It's royality free, one can get it for $10 Smiley http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/content/soundeffects (at the very bottom)

Overall, I look for royality free sounds that are usable for commercial work. It is not much point using other sounds even for freeware games since it will only cause you trouble sorting out what sound is on what licence when you will intend to release Deluxe version or a similar game but commercial (and you will intend sooner or later since it is the only viable route if you want to make games in a long run).

I have to code games, design them, to some extend make graphics, market them, sell them, reply to fan mails. There is absolutely no way I would touch sounds & music, one should put some limits if one wants to preserve at least a tiny bit of sanity Cheesy


Thanks for all the links, I'm digesting these right now Smiley
(feel free to drop more of course)
