The Forest is a game created as part of my exam in the course 3D-audio at Sonic College.

The idea with this production was to explore the interactive and atmospheric properties of spatialized 3D sound with the help of FMOD and Google Resonance Audio. The soundscape is created using ambisonic recorings and the evil voices are spatialized using the FB360 plugin.

The player is lost in the middle of a foggy forest. The objective is to find a river running through the forest. To do this, a voice is guiding the player in the right direction. But something or someone is lurking in the forest, who doesn’t want the player to succeed.

Since the audio in game (and video) is in 3D, headphones is highly recommanded.
