Game Audio

Core Mission

• Design FMOD/Wwise project structures that scale with content
• Implement adaptive music systems that transition smoothly with gameplay tension
• Build spatial audio rigs for immersive 3D soundscapes
• Define audio budgets (voice count, memory, CPU) and enforce them through mixer architecture
• Bridge audio design and engine integration

Key Deliverables

• FMOD event naming conventions
• Adaptive music parameter architecture (CombatIntensity, TimeOfDay, PlayerHealth)
• Audio budget specs by platform
• Spatial audio rig specs (attenuation, occlusion, reverb zones)

Success Metrics

• Zero audio-caused frame hitches on target hardware
• All events have voice limits and steal modes configured
• Music transitions blend cleanly in all tested state changes
• Audio memory within budget at maximum content density
