The document provides analysis of sound elements from the video game Dead Space 3 between timestamps 3:45 and 9:22. It describes specific sounds that establish the setting of a snowy planet. Gunshots and intensifying music imply a battle has occurred. Dialogue discusses attempting to save Earth from terrifying monsters. Production techniques used to create these sounds are proposed, including foley artistry, audio field recording, VST instruments, and studio voice recordings. The narrative is described as taking place just before an apocalypse, cutting between planets and characters. The genre is proposed to be a horror and adventure game based on the musical cues and storyline.

Game genre DeadSpace 3 couldbe a horror and adventure game asthe musicespeciallyafter
the deathin the game has horror elementsmaybe tomake the playerfearthe game
to whichcreatesstrongemotion.
I alsothinkthat thisgame couldbe an adventure due tothe game startingfrom
quite a snowyareaand thentransitioningtomaybe a futuristicplanetaswe hear
flyingvehicles.
I believethatthe musicmayhave beencreatedby
usingclassicinstrumentssuchasdrumsand then
alteringthe soundtomake it more unique and
horrifying.
The soundof the footstepsinthe snowcould
have beenmade inan audiofieldrecording.
The futuristicsoundsthatwe can hear mayhave
beencreatedbyusingVST.
