Common questions about game save
What sound should a game make when it saves?
Something short that does not stop play, such as Gentle Chime Game Save 07. An autosave can be even smaller: Autosave Tick Game Save 01 is a tick and a blip.
Is there an 8-bit save sound like older RPGs?
Retro 8-Bit Game Save 06 is an 8-bit blip that climbs in pitch. Sounds taken from specific games are not here; these are new sounds for any game.
Is the "what a save" sound here?
No. That is a sports commentator shouting after a goalkeeper save; this page is about saving a game.
