sfxr -- You need this

sfxr is a small utility designed to generate sounds as easily as possible, and it is extreemly good at it's job. Need some sounds for your game? Click a couple buttons and within 30sec you'll have more explosions than the game will ever need. Need samples for use in a mod file? Play with the sliders for 3min and you'll roughly have the instrument you were looking for. Really, I can't think of anything to say to properly hype sfxr; you need it, download it.

It's really for, you know, 8-bit game sound effects. I messed around with the button at the bottom to change it from 8-bit to 16-bit, but I noticed little to no change whatsoever.

Yeah, this program is sweet. I spent about up to 2 or 3 hours trying to get some sound effects. I have a library of about 40+ sound effects just from this program. They are so good and the quality is awesome.

I can not thank you enough, yesterday AcWraith directed me towards this guild so I can either create my own or get free sounds effects. This program looks fairly easy and will help me down the road.

Did I really say it would take about 30sec to have as many explosions as you'd ever need? Samples comming right up!

And there they are! (in the original post) Enjoy.

You should really make some examples and post them somewhere. I like to see (or in this case, hear) what a program can do before I bother pursuing it further.
