Crisp Cozy Life: 306 cozy farming and life-sim sound effects
Crisp Cozy Life is a pack of 306 cozy gameplay sound effects for farming games, life sims, cooking and crafting games: the sounds of doing things, not of pressing buttons. They are stylised, synthesised sounds (soft, warm, a little cartoon-like), not field recordings. Every sound comes as WAV and OGG, is loudness-matched and is royalty-free for commercial use.

Details
- 306 sounds in 8 folders (112 named sounds; 288 of the files belong to numbered sets, which are variations or tuned steps).
- 3.9 minutes of audio in total; 184 of the 295 one-shots are 0.6 s or shorter, and the longest jingle is 2.3 s.
- 11 seamless loops (2.4 to 3.6 s): sizzle, boil, cat purr, pond, fireplace and rain, marked _loop in the file name.
- Download size: 35 MB (one zip with both formats; 42 MB of WAV and 3.6 MB of OGG unzipped).
- Anything heard often has 2 to 6 variations; footsteps, rustles and sweeping are mixed quiet, because they play constantly.
- Ladders: crop_pop_01 to 05 and pick_up_01 to 05 climb a scale, hammer_nail_01 to 04 rise as the nail goes in, crop_grow_01 to 03 are sprout / growing / grown, and splash_01 to 04 go from pebble to big fish.
- Jingles, coins, bells and pickups are tuned to C major pentatonic, so they stay in tune with each other and with the other Crisp packs.
- Same loudness and key as Crisp Cozy, its user-interface sister pack: Crisp Cozy covers the menus and rewards, this pack covers the world.
Formats and engines
- WAV: 44.1 kHz, 16-bit, stereo (for editing and highest quality).
- OGG Vorbis: small files, ready for Godot, Unity, GameMaker and web.
- Every sound is loudness-matched, starts on its first sample (no dead air) and peaks at or below -1 dBFS.
Works with: Godot, Unity, Unreal, GameMaker, Construct, RPG Maker, Ren'Py, Phaser and other web frameworks: anything that plays WAV or OGG.

Licence
Use the sounds in any number of commercial or non-commercial projects (games, apps, websites, videos, streams, game jams). Edit, layer, pitch or otherwise modify them. Credit is appreciated but never required. You may not resell, redistribute or give away the sounds themselves, on their own or as part of another sound library or asset pack, modified or not, and you may not claim them as your own original work in a sound library.
This is a summary of the LICENSE.txt inside the download. The sampler's copy of that file: crisp-cozy-life.txt.
Questions
Can I use this in a commercial game?
Yes. One purchase covers unlimited commercial and non-commercial projects.
Do I have to credit you?
No. A credit to Anipixels is welcome but not required.
Which engines does it work with?
Any engine or tool that plays WAV or OGG files: Godot, Unity, Unreal, GameMaker, Construct, RPG Maker, Ren'Py, Phaser and other web frameworks.
Are these real recordings?
No. Every sound is synthesised, so they are stylised: soft, clean and a little cartoon-like. If your game needs realistic field recordings of a farm, this is not that pack. Listen to the demo first.
How is Crisp Cozy Life different from Crisp Cozy?
Crisp Cozy is the user-interface pack: buttons, menus, notifications, rewards. Crisp Cozy Life is the gameplay pack: tools, kitchen, workshop, pond, animals, footsteps. No sound appears in both packs, and they share the same loudness and key, so they work side by side.
How do the loops work?
The 11 files with _loop in the name start and end at the same point, so they repeat without a gap or click. Set them to loop in your engine.
Was AI used?
Yes, for the code. Every sound is synthesised from scratch by code that was written with Claude (an AI assistant). No recorded samples and no AI audio-generation models were used.
Can I try before buying?
Yes. The web demo on the free itch.io page plays all 306 sounds in your browser, and the free sampler has 20 of them to download. The 20 sampler sounds can also be played on this site's UI sound board.
