Project L Redesign

Punch! Kick! Dodge!

I’ve always had a love for fighting games, so when project L was announced from Riot Games i was so exited! I thought it’d be a great opportunity to do something new and different. With elements from guns, and scifi I thought I was a great challenge. Through these redesigns i’ve noticed that I’ve gotten quicker and quicker at designing and its so satisfying!

To make Ekkos scifi bat sound I combined a lot of impacts that I made within Envy by The Cargo Cult which is essentially a morphing plugin but works a little differently and matches the amplitude of two or more sources. Its a heck of a lot of fun to mess around with.

So to make these impacts, I used the amplitude of an impact and mixed that with scifi elements from various sources, mosting consisting of ones I made previously. Which made impacts like this:

I then took one of these, layered it with the others and ran it through a series of effects including (in order): Absynth, pitchdelay, Reverb, Crystallizer. So with lots of pitch modulation, pitch delays and randomness I ended up with this:

And that’s how I ended up getting his “character” for his bat sound in this redesign.

I hope you had as much fun reading this, as much as I did redesigning this!
