Sound Redesign of Video Game Scene
Little Nightmares II is a suspenseful and atmospheric horror platformer that immerses players in a haunting, nightmarish world. Known for its eerie visuals, unsettling sound design, and thrilling gameplay, the game follows Mono and Six as they navigate disturbing environments filled with lurking dangers.
The scene I worked on for my sound redesign is the intense and chilling finale where you meet the final boss fight, and the tension reaches its peak.

This project began while Brandon, Josh, and I were developing Sonic Craft Studios. It was our first time collaborating on post-production sound, and at the time, this assignment felt like a make-or-break moment for us as a team. We had never worked together in this capacity before, but the outcome exceeded our expectations. I can confidently say that all three of us are incredibly proud of this project.
We also had very little time to complete and submit it for our audio post-production class—just about a week. To stay on track, we divided roles and responsibilities as we would in a professional setting. I focused on sound design and FX editing, Brandon handled dialogue, ADR, and some foley, while Josh took charge of the music. They made multiple trips to the studio to record and mix, ensuring we had everything we needed.
Our success came down to clear communication, equally dividing the workload, supporting each other when needed, and bringing everything together seamlessly in the final mix. Despite the time crunch, this experience proved that we could work efficiently as a team—something that became foundational for Sonic Craft Studios.
