Atari SFX
A downloadable SFX asset pack
16 sound effects for your Atari 2600 games usable in batari Basic!
batari Basic is a beginner friendly programming language,
that can be found here.
https://github.com/batari-Basic/batari-Basic/releases
Download the .bas file to see the code
and the .bin files to play on your Atari 2600 or (Stella) emulator.
Use the joystick to change SFX and fire button to play!
Once you learned the very basics,
you should be able to inject my sfx into your code.
I used a few varibles to make all sfx only play once and then stop,
instead of playing endlessly, or as long as you hold the button.
There are some helpful tutorials online,
mostly on AtariAge forums and a website called randomterrain.

I already have it implemented in my first game in Batari Basic "Invasion".
I'm not a musician at all but I have a friend who composes in chiptune for my mobile and C64 games, I'll see if passing him the explanation of how TIA works with volume, waveform and frequency he can compose something for the intro screen.
Could I ask you a favor, could you pass me the code of the sample tune that you have here in the post, so I study it with him and it's more representative than one of the 15 FXs.
Thanks in advance!😁👾🕹️
To make music that works with batari Basic, you'd either have to code the same way as the sfx, or use TIATracker and the batari Basic TIATracker module.
I'd recommend going the TIATracker route.

Yes, I wanted to see if it was possible that you could pass me the code of the music that you have as an example in the Atari Age post called “solar system” to give it to my musician friend so he can be guided to compose the melody of my game.😉👾🕹️
I uploaded the .ttt files for usage with batari Basic

Nice game btw. :)
Funny thing, I helped with music and sfx for this Game Boy game...

based on a similar game idea.
Well, I've never seen it before and it looks similar, hahaha, only the mechanics of mine is that you have to kill the inhabitants before the ship lands. Thank you very much for the ttt of your music, I will try with the tracker, what I have no idea is how to export the music from there and implement it in my game with Batari Basic.😳
Export to dasm and follow the link I posted earlier to the TIATracker bB Module.
