Firelight Technologies (Firelight), developer of audio software for the computer game and civil/defence simulator industries, has won the coveted Small Business Award. The award recognises the outstanding international success of the company’s FMOD software, which is now the most commonly used audio software in the worldwide computer games industry.

Firelight also received a commendation in the Arts and Entertainment Award category.

The 2010 Governor of Victoria Export Awards were announced on 4 October at Government House.

Firelight Technology's FMOD, the choice for many developers for creation and playback of interactive audio in their games, is one step closer to world domination. After winning Game Developer magazine's 2008 Front Line award for best Audio Tool, Firelight have decided to team up with Garage Games and is offering FMOD EX for a super cheap $100 (US) if you're an indie Torque developer. FMOD EX for commercial Torque developers can snag FMOD EX for a measley $500, which is a huge discount from the standard FMOD EX commercial license.

FMOD has been used on titles such as Call of Duty: World at War, Little Big Planet and World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King. If you're an indie or commercial developer, it looks like there's no excuse not to take up FMOD EX!

Congratulations are in order for Melbourne's Fightlight technologies who took out first place in the Audio Tool category in the Front Line Awards for 2008 with their flagship audio suite, Fmod Designer 4.17.

The Front Line Awards, which aims to give recognition to the tools that developers use to assist in their work, has been established for over a decade and is voted upon by the Game Developer magazine and Gamasutra reader polls.

The nominations for the best Audio Tool category in for 2008 are:

Vivox Precision Studio v.2, Vivox
Wwise 2008.3, Audiokinetic
Fmod Designer 4.17, Firelight Technologies
Miles Sound System 7.2c, Rad Game Tools
Voice-O-Matic 2.6, Di-O-Matic

"We're happy to finally announce the winners of the 2008 Front Line Awards," said Brandon Sheffield, editor-in-chief of Game Developer. "These awards show developers' appreciation for tools companies of all sizes, provided they’re useful and well-supported. Congratulations to both the winners and the finalists, and good luck for next year."
