About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of integrating audio early in game development to enhance player experience.

Most teams treat audio exclusively as polish, leaving it until right before launch. The problem is, sound influences player decisions, pacing, and emotional impact well before a single level is finished. Today, we explore why isolating audio creates friction and missed opportunities, and how treating sound as a core layer from the start leads to a stronger, more cohesive player experience.
