No localization says = We’re not ready to support that market. Bad (MT) localization says = We don’t respect players in that country. If you think you’re doing players a favor by running your carefully crafted script through AI, please don't. Your game will look cheap. #gamedev #gameloc

Which localization hero will you choose? 🎮 Here's a short guide on the tree basic "builds": ⚔️ The lumbering large LSP (language service provider). 🔮 The well-balanced small team/boutique agency. 🏹 The wild-card solo freelancer. #gameloc #gamedev #litranslators

Your Steam page deserves top-notch localization. It can either drive wishlists and sales or push players away. (Machine translation sounds scammy.) I studied many Steam pages in my language. ▷ The best-written, local variants are not afraid to be creative. #gamedev #gameloc #indiedev

Thanks for the nice comment! I really like this perspective. :) The game wasn’t very in-depth, but it was cozy and incremental before cozy incremental builders were a thing haha.

I used to be a game developer. Kinda. Aged 10–15, I developed dozens of games in GameMaker. I only ever finished one. It was a medieval city builder with hand-drawn graphics. Sadly, all my creations are lost to time, but at least they live in my memories. 💚 #gameloc #indiedev #gamedev

Translating Dialogue vs. Item Descriptions: 💬 Dialogue = All about style & emotion, capturing the characters' voices. 📝 UI & Item Descriptions = Precision, proper word order, attention to space constraints & consistency. #gameloc #gamedev #translation

Another release day! 🎮 This summer I worked as the LQA tester on the Czech localization for Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. Huge thanks to @locquest.bsky.social for the trust, and big kudos to Filip Ženíšek & Riotloc for the top-notch translation! #gamedev #gameloc #indiedev #Czech

At first I thought these were all people that relentlessly spam the indie developer and I thought, “Where’s the translator?” Lol
