The Dragon of Dragonbaby 🐲

Irredeemable vampire simp planning to usurp the localization world with a golden heart and silver tongue.

Specialist in all things bone-grinding and neon-tinged...or frankly anything needing a flair of poeticism.

HEY, I'm Sam! 🤘🏻😘🤘🏻

I run a chaotic good localization studio called Dragonbaby where we make the best words happen for the weirdest and creepiest games around.

I also occasionally wiggle my fingers over games that need JP>EN translation or narrative support.

My portfolio👇🏻
loc-x-load.com
In a rare flexing of my creepy yet creative fingers, turns out I was the lead EN editor on @cr-games.bsky.social + @trioskaz.bsky.social's No, I'm not a Human.

So, go on... Unlock your doors and allow some little freaky freaks (me) into your home today. 🧟‍♂️🚪😱

Another proud addition to the drink-mix-life-change-'em up genre. 🥂
Lovers of beverages served with a side of sobbing unite with this beautiful artpiece from VA-11 Hall-A's own @kiri.sukeban.moe!

Thanks for appreciating how Kemono Teatime "[goes] beyond 'moe' to say something about the world we live in, and how everyone has a different way of facing adversity." 💜

The most frustrating part of running into fellow Sam, @samlakewrites.bsky.social, at Develop Brighton this year was not being able to enthuse rabidly about DEAD TAKE. 😩

Curse my endless professional respect for this industry, my peers, and pre-release NDAs! 😔

Had great fun putting (localized) words into @neilnewbon.bsky.social, @charalanahzard.bsky.social, and @benstarr.bsky.social's mouths on DEAD TAKE. ⚰️🎬
He's hosting a party, and he'd love for you to attend...

DEAD TAKE, the new psychological horror from the fantastic minds of @abubakarsalim.bsky.social and his team at @surgentstudios.bsky.social is out now. ☠️🎬

He builds worlds, people...sculpts them.

...but how far will you go?

I support women's rights AND wrongs. 😌
The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily is out! And our Dragons localized it into EN, ZH-CN, ZH-TW, and KO so everyone can experience:

⚔️ Tactical warfare
💅 Petty revenge
💘 Sapphic yearning
🔪 Aaand the moral option to just murder literally everyone!

We love this game so much it hurts. Go play it. 🫵🏻

The children may yearn for the mines, but we... we yearn for the factory. 🏭😌
Lovers of wholesome puzzles are feasting this month with the release of Kaizen: A Factory Story! We got...

🔩 Screws
🔧 Bolts
🪛 More screws
🤖 Robots (eventually)

Sprung from the incomprehensible minds of @coincidence.games and @astragames.bsky.social, live your dreams of labour today! 👨🏻‍🏭🩷

The cat's out of the bag and yearning for the mines...! ⛏️🙀

Help pixel kitty find her mom and explore a wonderful world of weird in Everdeep Aurora from @nautilusdev.bsky.social and @ysbryd.net in a whole bunch of languages thanks to our Dragons!

Go! ...The Everdeep awaits! 🕳️🪏

Mycelium? More like Yourcelium! Gottem.
Are you yearning for a touch of corporate demands in your leisure time? 🫵

...Yes? Then #mycopunk from @pigeonsatplay.bsky.social is for you!

Fresh off the back of a @devolverdigital.com spacetruck full of bugs, it's time to action some profitable synergies for the glory of SAXON! 🍄🔫

mfw the Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time's Bone Dragon (specifically) tries to eat my hand... 🦴🐲

Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time is finally out worldwide!

Kinda wild to think I started in localization being mentored by the folks who translated the first Fantasy Life and now I led the team for the sequel!?

Couldn't be more proud of our linguists. 🥹💚

So, go get a life...or 14!

I love to beat meat 🥩✊🏻
Smelly coward want push GORN 2 buttons with floppy sausage fingers!?

(... @devolverdigital.com, @freelives.bsky.social, and #cortopia approved meat whacking now also available in Korean and Japanese.) 🍖🖐🏻

Our Dragons put their hearts (and spades, and diamonds, and clubs) into the localization of this one. ❤️ ♠️ ♦️ ♣️

If you like Balatro but with more lies, cheating, and murder...try it and see if you fold. 😈
What happens when a trashmouth gremlin bets her life on poker…and loses hard?

Find out in All in Abyss: Judge the Fake. Now gloriously cursed in EN, ZHs/t, and KO!

It's got:
🃏 CARD GAME
💀 Mean and horrible deaths
🧃 And just enough anime juice to rot your brain

Try it. See if you fold.
