Assets

Getting assets you can use free and clear in your game is always a little tricky and an area where lots of independent game makers mess up. For Raptor Revenge I am lucky that I can get all the art done in house. But that leaves me with two other asset types I still need to buy or find free royalty free assets, they are sounds and fonts. Yes fonts, you can't just use the fonts on your PC they are not licensed for redistribution so you either make your own, yuck, or thankfully Microsoft has some that are licensed just for XNA games. As for music I found a site with a good amount of free music but also inexpensive CDs of loops I can buy for my projects. They are called Partners in Rhyme. The last part about assets in your indy project is look closely at the tools you are using most of the student and free versions are just for learning and your not allowed to use it on a commercial project. Rights about assets are always a tricky area and it is best to keep your nose clean when using them because it sucks to be sued and have your new game pulled down for copyright infringement.
