Sound design is an incredibly important part of games and really all media that sometimes doesn’t get the attention it deserves. The way sound designers are able to communicate ideas and emotions through sounds alone is incredibly fascinating, and I’ve found myself being drawn to how sounds relate to one particular emotion: loneliness. With so many of my favorite titles from Outer Wilds to Breath of the Wild to Hollow Knight to Dark Souls to Journey exploring themes of solitude, designers have to find ways to make games sound lonely, so I tried to look into some of the sounds and techniques that I find make me feel lonely when I hear them.
