    Hi!

    My name is Matt Dear, I am a sound designer, composer and audio implementor. I've combined my two great passions of audio and gaming to create in-your-face, highly varied audio assets!

    Portfolio: https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1

    Here are a few points about me:
    - I've been making audio for games since 2014, during that time I've worked on a wide variety of projects covering many different styles.

    - I run a pro-quality home studio; capable of both realistic, high quality recordings and far-out conceptual effects/ambiences.

    - I also do freelance work at OMUK's London studio. OMUK are a world-renonowned dialogue studio, working on games since 1996!

    - You can view my Soundtrack, SFX and dialogue portfolios via my website http://matthewdear.tumblr.com/

    - Last year I completed an online course using Wwise audio implementation software. I've since used this knowledge to program my own audio systems.

    You can see a demo of my Wwise work here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzGzWWOzsiU

    I've had a very busy past couple of weeks, hence my delay in an update!

    For now I've uploaded some sounds I made for Unity! As part of their new Unity Connect Service, the sounds are for the upcoming associated instant messenger service.

    I've been working on a few new exciting projects and more work for Unknown Fate, but I can't reveal anything else yet! Watch this space :)

    I've had a busy month of working on a variety of projects and doing dialog editing work at OMUK.

    A couple of highlights:

    If any of you are heading to Gamescom, be sure to check out Unknown Fate's booth! A first-person puzzle VR game with surrealist themes. I've been doing sfx and sound design for this project for the past few months.

    At OMUK I edited the dialog for the recent Vermintide update, it was great to work on a game I've enjoyed so much since it's release.

    Creators of Unknown Fate MarsLit Games are off to Gamescom today! If you're around go anc check out their booth. We've put together a special demo just for Gamescom.

    While they're over in Cologne, I'm going to working on more Infinity PBR assets packs, as seen on the Unity Asset store.
