Sound design goes unnoticed… until it’s bad
Flat audio and poor SFX kill immersion. With 19+ years in the game industry, we know how sound makes players lean forward and hold their breath. If that’s the experience you want to create, here’s when we are the best fit.
You’ve got talented devs and artists
But you don’t have a sound designer
Our sound designers step in and take full ownership of your game’s audio. From creating assets in Pro Tools to bringing them alive in FMOD, we cover the sound side, while your team can focus on coding and art.
Your game is nearly ready
But audio was left for last
We dive right in, create polished audio, and integrate it properly into your engine. We deliver 30% faster than most studios and make sure your launch is not rushed, even under aggressive deadlines.
Mechanics work and visuals look good
But the game feels hollow without unique sound
We create custom SFX, music, and dialogue that adapt to every moment. No repeated footsteps or gunshots. With tricks like round-robin and layering, your game’s audio stays dynamic and immersive.
If it moves, speaks, or explodes, we make it sound real
You’ve built the world. Pingle will make it sound alive. Our sound design for games covers sound effects, music, voiceovers, and immersive environments that pull players straight into the action.
1
Custom SFX
development
We create original sound effects tailored to your game’s mechanics and world. Fully bespoke and never reused elsewhere.
2
Sound engineering
With Pingle, your sound comes out polished and balanced. We clean up the noise (literally) and make every sound hit where it should.
3
SFX design
Footsteps on gravel, creaking doors, or distant explosions. We’ll craft sounds that help players believe they’re inside the world.
4
Music composition
Want to make every win unforgettable? We design catchy tunes for characters and epic events that players can’t get out of their heads.
5
Audio optimization &
QA
We hunt down glitches, clipping, and off-balance, so your game audio shines on headphones, speakers, consoles, and mobile devices.
6
Voiceover recording &
editing
Whether it’s for characters, narrators, or in-game prompts, we work with talented voice actors to make your characters speak.
7
Environmental audio
From bustling cities and rustling foliage to dripping water in dungeons, we build immersive soundscapes that breathe life into your game.
8
Spatial audio
implementation
We make sounds behave like they would in real life. Players can tell where sounds are coming from, with walls and terrain shaping how they echo.
9
Audio prototyping
We test sound ideas directly in your game to fine-tune timing, catch technical issues, and experiment quickly, so nothing feels off when players hit play.
Not sure if the audio will work in the game?
Let us create sample SFXs and show how your world can sound before full production even begins.

Frequently asked questions
1
How long does it take to design audio for a game?
It depends on the scope and complexity. Small games can see a playable audio prototype in just a few weeks, while large-scale titles may take several months. At Pingle, we always aim to align with your development schedule.
2
Can you adapt audio for VR or AR experiences?
Absolutely. Our sound design for games includes spatial audio setups that stay consistent across devices and performance budgets. We design fully immersive 3D and spatial audio that reacts to the player’s position and actions. With tools like FMOD, Wwise, and engine-native spatialization, we ensure every footstep, ambient sound, and effect is placed precisely.
3
How early should we involve Pingle in our game development?
The earlier, the better. Audio affects gameplay feel, pacing, and immersion. We can start at concept, prototype, or pre-production stages to make sure sound evolves alongside your game.
4
Can you fix audio in a game that’s already released?
Yes. We provide post-launch support, patches, and updates for bugs, balancing issues, or improvements to existing audio.
5
Do you handle audio implementation in Unity/Unreal and middleware (FMOD/Wwise)?
Yes. We integrate audio files into your engine and set up events, triggers, and adaptive logic so sound reacts to gameplay. We also handle spatialization and placement, so players can “feel” distance, direction, and environment changes. If you already have a pipeline, we plug into it. If not, we’ll set one up and document everything.
6
What do you need from our team to start?
A bit of context goes a long way. We’ll usually ask for your story direction, gameplay loop, mood references, and a playable build (even early). Then we break down the full audio scope (SFX design, UI, ambience, music, VO) and map it to moments in gameplay, so nothing important gets missed and the work stays aligned with your development schedule.
7
Can you do a small audio prototype before full production?
Definitely. If you’re not sure the audio direction will “click” in-game, we can create a sample set of SFX and test them directly in your build. That way you hear timing, intensity, and readability in context, not in isolation. Once it feels right, we scale the same approach into full production and keep iterating as the game evolves.
