  10. The Futureโ€ฆ What lies ahead ?

    Hey gamers, its been a tough time for everyone, not just this horrendous (and still going on) heatwave but financially as well for a lot of people. The gaming industry seems to have hit its toughest time yet, so many lay-offs and failed games, and its getting worse not better. The recent decision by Sony to go digital only from 2028 has hit like a lead balloon, what is totally pointless though peeps is the constant and stupid things you are doing, a blackout in a week of August where [โ€ฆ]

  26. Upcoming Twitch Event โ€“ #SpookyGP

    This will be the third year running I have hosted this event on X and done Giveaways across discord, Twitch etc. Now its time to STEP IT UP and GO BIG OR GO HOME. SpookyGP will be a massive 28 day Twitch Event, showcasing all kinds of games, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, RPG and of course Horror. Halloween doesn't have to just be about spooky or Horror, lots of people like to dress up as action heroes, film characters etc. so I will be including more types of games this time around. What's the plan [โ€ฆ]

  36. I have a question to indie developers in the video game space; specifically, solo developers, hobbyists and tiny studios that grew out of the hobbyist space.

    I am a freelance language service provider mostly working in the video game localisation industry; in other words, I translate video games.
    My clients are localisation agencies, publishers and developers who hire me to translate their game to (or from) German.

    Since getting credited for AAA work is notoriously difficult, I would like to work with indie developers more often.

    Ethically, I would love to support the indie space and help people dabble in localising their games to make them more accessible to non-English audiences, and I do think it is a collaborative arrangement that benefits both sides. I could get more credits to my name and work on exciting passion projects, and they would receive professional-quality language services, perhaps even at a reduced rate.

    While researching however, I found that few indie developers seem to consider localising their games in the first place.

    The ones I *do* see going for localisation are the larger, more popular and well-known indie studios and publishers (e. g. the *Paralives* folks); while smaller developers, let alone hobbyists, very rarely seem to go for localisation, even if it's a commercial release.

    Since I would like to design my own processes for offering such services specifically tailored to indie developers, I wanted to ask you directly: what is the reason you haven't considered localisation for your games so far? What could a language service provider do to make you feel more comfortable or confident in the decision to work on a translated version of your game? What are your worries and road blocks?

    (Polls on this instance can apparently only have four options, sorry! Feel free to elaborate in a reply instead.)

    Boosts welcome.
