Hey, I’m Bryan. I founded IndieGuild so small creators get seen, and devs can find them without digging through a dozen Discords. Every profile here is a real person. Go say hi.
Bryan, founder
It’s free, and I want to keep it that way. If you’d like to help, you can chip in once or monthly. Here’s how IndieGuild makes money.
A good fit starts here
Get up to three matches. Listen free, see starting rates, then message the creator.
Step 1: Your world
Paste your Steam page, or give us up to three reference games. References help describe the kind of world you’re making.
Step 2: The feeling
Step 3: Your matched sounds
Picks from published portfolios. Partial fits and alternatives are labeled. Steam describes your game; your scene and mood steer the audio. Listening does not grant usage rights.
Compare picks with gameplayNot quite it? and people who fit can pitch you.
The gameplay studio
Same scene. Different sound. Find the feeling you’re looking for.
Drop in any gameplay clip and try your music or sound on it.
