- Films / Animations
- Video Editing

- Pretty much any Audio-Visual production

So I purchased this but it appears t o be Foley Footsteps instead of the SFX in the preview of this page.
I thought I was purchasing explosion sound effects but they are completely different. Am I missing something?
Whoops! That's my bad - I did a clean up of some of the packs, and accidentally uploaded the wrong ones!
Let me know if you have trouble getting the full explosions pack now. In the meantime, enjoy the footstep foley pack too :D
It worked! Thanks!
No worries! Happy to help!
This is a great Pack. Its just what i was looking for. I will be using it in my first game ever for the Pixel Game Jam 2025. Once its done I will surely share the link. Thank You sooo much!!! You are a lifesaver!!!
No worries! Glad it has come in useful! Look forward to seeing what you will make :D
I actually missed the submission deadline by a few minutes. I didn't know that you can upload the game and then keep updating it just to stay on the safer side. I will be posting the game anyways in a few days so I will share the link. Thank You once again...
But the sound effects really helped my Game a lot ngl.
I used a few of these for a gam jam: https://robothamj.itch.io/shard :D

Used some of these in this learning project: https://mjkjr.itch.io/star-defender-space-invaders-clone
