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.

One neat thing about a modern engine hosting a retro style game is lighting, we can do so much more now than we could then, while still keeping the style!
Would you play a 007 meets Medal of honor combo spy retro game in 2025?

I may or may not have cofounded an #indie game studio with some old and new friends.
Our first project together isn't finished, but it's close enough to let you know it exists!
