[casual_games] Tools for creating sound effects

[Joe Pantuso]

Generally speaking you need some sort of source material to manipulate.  It
is very difficult to create sounds out of thin air, you generally start with
one or more sounds collected from physical sources (animals, machines,
hitting one object with another object).  Given your question I'm betting
you have a bit of a learning curve ahead of you.

Read this; http://filmsound.org/starwars/
and browse around that site in general.

Source material you can play with for free; http://www.sounddogs.com/
Once you've narrowed in on something you can buy hi-res material cheap.

A free tool; http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

Have fun!
