Kwama sounds WIP

[Ibsen's Ghost]

Hi folks,

I've got together a bunch of sounds that I'm going to start playing with but I need some feedback on what you think will sound best. So I've organised my samples into three sets and the attachments are a selection of each set. I may end up only using a few original recordings and just modifying them with different effects but I'd like a basic impression from you guys as to what baseline I should start with.

My first choice, of course, was insect noises so you can hear a few samples here, but I wasn't too pleased with these, especially when you consider the fact that there are so few decent 'attack sounds' for insects. Nonetheless, the cicada effect has potential.

The second category was human noises. The first bunch of these come from my custom Dremora voice for when the character is attacked and gets hit. Something like this might work for the workers or warriors. I definitely want to use the baby voices because I want the player to feel seriously unnerved when they hit the forager and possibly the Queen too because there's that Alien-based protective mother thing going on there (you'll know what I mean if you're familiar with the Alien film series).

And the third was simply monster noises but this includes animals as well. These samples have been modded a little but I do have base files that consist of various growls from wild cats. I was thinking of only using the animal stuff when it's needed for attack sounds.

After speaking to people about the range of sounds needed, this is a list of possible events for which sounds may be needed: attack, aware, death, foot, idle, injured and world.

Thoughts, people?
