Guidelines for naming and tagging

The goal is to make easy for others to find the relevant sounds, by typing some search words or clicking some tags.

Do

Describe the sound (quick, slow, high pitch, low pitch, etc…) and/or which object or situation it could represent (e.g: robot voice, sea waves, cute animal, etc… ). When picking tags, prefer tags that already have sounds similar to yours, or those that could be used in a similar/opposite situation, so that they can be linked. Similarly, try to phrase the descriptions using the same words used for similar sounds.

Avoid

Please avoid adding sounds almost identical to an existing sound, and relying on following words:

Using the Sounds

Playing a sound

Simply click the SFX number. If you like the sound, do use it in your projects!

If no sound is produced, please ensure this page has permission to play sounds, e.g. audio is not disabled, and that your speakers are on.

Filtering

Filter the Sounds by keywords such as name, author and date added. Just type a keyword in the search field atop the table. Keywords are space- and case-insensitive.

To save and link to a specific filtered view of the table, ensure this page's URL ends with https://pedros.works/puzzlescript/sounds.html?search=keyword.

All saved filtered views update whenever the Sounds updates.

Keywords

To add Keyword at once to the search field atop the table, simply (tap) or (click) on it! This will keep all matching entries. Do it again to revert.

Sorting

Date added

By default, all game entries are sorted by date of submission, most recent first. Usually those will be the newest sounds.

To sort the table differently, simply (tap) or (click) the table headers.
