A note from our audio designer!
Added 2023-07-02 14:34:30 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and share some exciting news about my involvement in the development of Siren. My name is Evan Brozovich, and I have a deep passion for sound design and audio manipulation. From a young age, I've been captivated by the power of sound and have been experimenting with various techniques to create unique sonic experiences. While I don't have prior experience with Unreal Engine, I've had the opportunity to work with audio in other game development environments, and I'm thrilled to bring my expertise to this project.
What drew me to Siren was not only the fascinating concept but also the dedication of the project lead, David. I've had the pleasure of working with him before, and his commitment to delivering an exceptional game experience is truly inspiring. When he approached me about joining Loreseeker to work on Siren, I knew it was an opportunity I couldn't pass up. The early conversations about the game's vision and aspirations got me incredibly excited, and I knew I had to be a part of this journey.
Although Siren is still in its early stages of development, we believe it's crucial to start discussing the audio and sound design aspects early on. Sound is such an integral part of creating an immersive game world, and we want to ensure that every sound you hear contributes to your experience. In fact, I had the opportunity to work on the sound elements featured in our announcement trailer. It was a fantastic experience that not only allowed me to capture the atmosphere we're aiming for but also served as inspiration for future work on this game.
As the audio designer for Siren, my role will involve collecting, compiling, generating, recording, and designing sounds that will be heard throughout the game. I'll be exploring Unreal Engine's internal audio capabilities and learning how to best utilize them to enhance the player's experience. My goal is to create an audio landscape that immerses you in the vibrant underwater world of Siren, simultaneously inviting and mysterious.
I want to express my gratitude for your support through Patreon. Your contributions directly impact the development of Siren, enabling us to dedicate more time and resources to the project. Currently, I'm juggling a full-time job and other responsibilities, but your continued funding will allow me to allocate more of my time to Siren, accelerating its progress.
Moving forward, I'm excited to share regular updates on the sound design of the game and provide you with behind-the-scenes insights. I'll also be seeking your valuable feedback through Discord channels, as I believe in the power of collaborative creativity. There are countless ways to interpret the underwater soundscape, and I can't wait to explore unique ideas with all of you.
Thank you for your support!

One of my favorite things when playing games like Subnautica, is listening to the ambience, and experiencing how the music affects how I feel about the environment. I can't wait to experience the soundscapes Siren has to offer!
