LocQuest 🛡️ Ethical Localization
@locquest.bsky.social
Multilingual localization studio focusing on high-quality, human-powered translation and ethical practices.

Roots of Pacha, Halls of Torment, Minami Lane, Tavern Talk, Frog Detective, and much more

Inquiries: hello@locquest.com
It was an honor to be able to work on such an impactful game like Wednesdays. 🩵

And for World Children's Day, @thepixelhunt.bsky.social has made the game free for a limited time. Play it now in Spanish (Spain), Portuguese (Portugual), German, English, or French.

Available on Steam and Itch. ⬇️
Today is Universal Children Day, and for the occasion our game Wednesdays is 100% free on Steam and Itch. io.
If you haven't heard about it, know that it deals with very sensitive topics (namely child sexual abuse), but hopefully does it in a caring way.
