From 84a71a306468c3849c7f8b30d122535f3bbb4f53 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Kotnik Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2026 14:34:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?=F0=9F=94=8A=20AUDIO=20REUSE=20STRATEGY=20-=20N?= =?UTF-8?q?o=20Duplication=20Needed!?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit 🎯 KEY FINDING: 36 Core Sounds = Used Everywhere! 📊 AUDIO SHARING BREAKDOWN: - Shared (All Phases): 36 files (28%) - Music: 6 tracks - SFX: 19 sounds - Ambient: 3 loops - UI: 8 stingers - Phase-Specific: 93 files (72%) ✅ REUSED ACROSS ALL PHASES: Music: - Main theme, Farm ambient, Night theme - Combat theme, Victory theme, Ana theme SFX: - Farming: dig, plant, water, harvest, chop, mine - Combat: sword, zombie hit/death, player hurt - Building: hammer, doors, chests - UI: footsteps, coins, level up, clicks Ambient: - Wind, crickets, birds 🎮 PHASE-SPECIFIC (only when needed): - Faza 1: +60 (desert/swamp music, animals, advanced combat, crafting) - Faza 2: +24 (town music, bells, NPCs, market) 💡 IMPLICATIONS: 1. DEMO 45 sounds = PERMANENT INVESTMENT - Used in ALL phases - NOT wasted! - One-time effort 2. INCREMENTAL ADDITIONS - Don't replace, just ADD - 45 → 105 → 129 3. FILE ORGANIZATION - All in /assets/audio/ - Shared automatically - No duplicates needed! 4. LOADING STRATEGY - Core 45 always loaded - +60/+24 loaded when phase unlocked 🚀 RECOMMENDED WORKFLOW: 1. Get DEMO 45 → Works everywhere! ✅ 2. Add Faza 1 as needed → Incremental 3. Add Faza 2 later → Last priority ZERO duplication, maximum reuse! 🎉 --- AUDIO_REUSE_SHARING_STRATEGY.md | 293 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 293 insertions(+) create mode 100644 AUDIO_REUSE_SHARING_STRATEGY.md diff --git a/AUDIO_REUSE_SHARING_STRATEGY.md b/AUDIO_REUSE_SHARING_STRATEGY.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..58c599020 --- /dev/null +++ b/AUDIO_REUSE_SHARING_STRATEGY.md @@ -0,0 +1,293 @@ +# 🔊 AUDIO REUSE & SHARING STRATEGY +## How Audio Files Are Shared Across DEMO + Faza 1 + Faza 2 + +**Created:** January 9, 2026, 14:33 CET +**Purpose:** Show which sounds are reused vs phase-specific +**Key Insight:** 45 DEMO sounds work across ALL phases! 🎉 + +--- + +## 🎯 CORE CONCEPT: AUDIO STACKING + +**Audio works in LAYERS, NOT replacements!** + +``` +DEMO (45 files) ← CORE FOUNDATION (used in ALL phases!) + ↓ + └──> FAZA 1 (+60) ← ADDS biome-specific + combat depth + ↓ + └──> FAZA 2 (+24) ← ADDS town-specific sounds + +TOTAL: 45 + 60 + 24 = 129 files (but 45 used everywhere!) +``` + +--- + +## ✅ SHARED SOUNDS (Used in ALL Phases) + +### **🎵 SHARED MUSIC (6 tracks):** + +These play in **DEMO, Faza 1, AND Faza 2:** + +1. **`main_theme.ogg`** - Main menu (all phases use same menu!) +2. **`farm_ambient.ogg`** - Farm music (farm exists in all phases!) +3. **`night_theme.ogg`** - Night music (night happens in all phases!) +4. **`combat_theme.ogg`** - Combat music (combat in all phases!) +5. **`victory_theme.ogg`** - Quest complete (used everywhere!) +6. **`ana_theme.ogg`** - Ana memories (story in all phases!) + +**= 6 music tracks REUSED across entire game!** + +--- + +### **🔊 SHARED SFX (19 sounds):** + +These work in **DEMO, Faza 1, AND Faza 2:** + +**Farming (reused everywhere):** +- `dig.ogg` - Digging soil (farming in all phases!) +- `plant_seed.ogg` - Planting (farming in all phases!) +- `water_crop.ogg` - Watering (farming in all phases!) +- `harvest.ogg` - Harvesting (farming in all phases!) +- `tree_chop.ogg` - Chopping wood (all phases!) +- `stone_mine.ogg` - Mining (all phases!) + +**Combat (reused everywhere):** +- `sword_slash.ogg` - Sword swing (combat in all phases!) +- `zombie_hit.ogg` - Zombie damage (zombies in all phases!) +- `zombie_death.ogg` - Zombie death (all phases!) +- `player_hurt.ogg` - Player damage (all phases!) + +**Building (reused everywhere):** +- `hammer_nail.ogg` - Building (construction in all phases!) +- `door_open.ogg` - Doors (doors everywhere!) +- `door_close.ogg` - Doors (everywhere!) +- `chest_open.ogg` - Chests (all phases!) + +**UI & Misc (reused everywhere):** +- `footstep_grass.ogg` - Walking (walking in all phases!) +- `footstep_stone.ogg` - Walking (all phases!) +- `coin_collect.ogg` - Money pickup (economy in all phases!) +- `level_up.ogg` - Level up (progression in all phases!) +- `ui_click.ogg` - All buttons (UI in all phases!) + +**= 19 SFX REUSED across entire game!** + +--- + +### **🌀 SHARED AMBIENT (3 loops):** + +These ambients layer in **ALL phases:** + +- `wind_gentle.ogg` - Background wind (all outdoor areas!) +- `crickets_night.ogg` - Night crickets (night in all phases!) +- `birds_daytime.ogg` - Day birds (day in all phases!) + +**= 3 ambient loops REUSED everywhere!** + +--- + +### **🎯 SHARED UI (8 stingers):** + +These UI sounds work in **ALL phases:** + +- `ui_click.ogg` - Every button click! +- `ui_hover.ogg` - Every button hover! +- `ui_error.ogg` - Every error! +- `ui_confirm.ogg` - Every confirmation! +- `quest_complete.ogg` - Quest complete (all phases!) +- `danger_stinger.ogg` - Danger (all phases!) +- `discovery_stinger.ogg` - Discoveries (all phases!) +- `sleep_heal.ogg` - Sleeping (all phases!) + +**= 8 UI sounds REUSED everywhere!** + +--- + +## 📊 REUSE SUMMARY: + +| Type | Shared (All Phases) | Phase-Specific | +|------|---------------------|----------------| +| **Music** | 6 tracks | +12 biome/town | +| **SFX** | 19 sounds | +53 specific | +| **Ambient** | 3 loops | +7 biome | +| **UI** | 8 stingers | +6 phase | +| **TOTAL** | **36 files** | +78 specific | + +**Key Insight:** 36 files (28% of total) are used across ENTIRE game! + +--- + +## 🎮 PHASE-SPECIFIC SOUNDS (Only used in specific phases) + +### **🎵 PHASE-SPECIFIC MUSIC:** + +**DEMO ONLY (3 tracks):** +- `forest_ambient.ogg` - Forest exploration (DEMO has forest?) +- `town_theme.ogg` - Town music (but also Faza 2!) +- `raid_warning.ogg` - Raid alarm (DEMO has raids?) + +**Actually, these can be SHARED too!
