Double Dragon: Modernizing a Retro Audio Legend

This project is a complete audio remake of the classic “Double Dragon.” My goal was to take the iconic visuals of the side-scrolling beat ’em up genre and provide them with a modern, cinematic soundscape. Every single sound effect and musical note in this redesign is an original creation from my studio.

In this remake, I focused on combat sound design—ensuring that every hit feels weighty and satisfying—while re-scoring the background music to maintain the driving, high-stakes energy of the original arcade experience. It serves as a study in how modern audio production can breathe new life into retro aesthetics.
