VOIP! PUNT!

And, for that matter, MINT! and NEWT!

And this.

Sometimes a bit more internationalization wouldn't go amiss - or perhaps somebody from Britain in the art department tricked him into thinking that that would be a perfect sound effect for the impact of a flying shield on metal.

An additional mention has to go to kjorteo, who is currently scanning in some comics he made when he was twelve and mocking them mercilessly, and whose choice of sound effect for a crash-landing in the latest episode was "PISH".

Almost twelve. Issue #3 is dated February '95. I would have turned twelve in April. :)

PISH does make sense as a sound effect.

For a crash-landing spacecraft? Maybe if it was colliding with a large pudding...

As I said, trying to channel my 11-year-old self to question what was going on in my own head, I think I was trying to rip off the SNES Star Fox collision sound. The less serious one, like if you barrel roll too low and clip your wing against the ground or something, and also when you get hit by an enemy laser. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndy-J5Xg-6c , 2:00-2:10 or so )

Not that that makes it any better, of course..!

Or one of those sherbet-filled flying saucers dropping into a pond. PISH was not a happy childhood sound.
