Is #PortfolioDay a thing here as well?
Hi! I'm an English into LATAM Spanish video game translator, and these are 4 games that I worked on and came out this year.
Feels good to replace the "Under NDA" cards with the actual games, all thanks to the #TranslatorsInTheCredits movement!
Amazing what we can achieve as a collective 🥹.

#TranslatorsInTheCredits
For the first time since its inception, I'm happy to report that ALL nominees of #TheGameAwards include #TranslatorsInTheCredits! We've come a long way since the dark days of credit withholding, and none of this would've been possible without your support!

Here’s my breakdown of EA’s pending sale… to Saudi Arabia… and why this is much, much bigger than video games. I’m late to this from a ‘news’ perspective obviously, but it’s because I worked on this video for about a month.

Get ready to unleash the Beast!

Dying Light: The Beast is out now, and I'm happy to say I worked on the LATAM Spanish adaptation from Castillian Spanish! As someone who really enjoyed the first game, I had a blast discovering the next chapter of Crane's story. 🥳

Very interesting article on the damage a rogue localizer can do to a game as Silksong's Chinese release sits at 52% positive - the translator not only shared a bunch of info pre-release, breaking NDA, the localization itself was highschool-flowery. A wild read. www.loekalization.com/blog/blog/20...

Congratulations on the launch of Silksong, @teamcherry.bsky.social!

However, it is a shame to see that the care with which the game was crafted does not extend to the French localization, which is riddled with errors.

Whoops Hollow Knight just launched itself a week before Silksong, guess I’ll have to replay it. How terrible…

Call me a ludite all you want, but the use of technology to fire human workforce in order to make magic numbers go up so investors give more money based on false claims is something I utterly despise. More so if said technology proves again and again to be a threat to human life, as Chatgepeté.

When someone aks what we think about the use of AI, the first question that comes to mind is always:

But why? Why would we, or anyone really, want to use it?

Here's @mittovac.bsky.social's piece about this very topic. Please share to anyone who needs to read this ⬇️

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme

Video games have a serious crediting problem, but unions can help

"Being properly credited on a title is essential to our individual careers as workers, and also just general fairness. Being able to say, 'Hey, I worked on this,' is important to show the work you did and not undercut labor."

How are unions working to fix the industry's issue with credits?

I'm gonna make you an offer you can't refuse:
New Mafia game, Sicily, 15-hour story, sick graphics, #TranslatorsInTheCredits. What more can you ask for?

I'm happy to announce I worked on the LATAM Spanish translation of Mafia: The Old Country (learning a bunch of Sicilian insults in the process)!

@undermine.game 2 released a couple of days ago into Early Access. I had a blast working on the LATAM Spanish localization for this one, particularly with the flavor texts of items.

Unfortunately, there’s no #TranslatorsInTheCredits for any of the 10 languages available.

Photo of the Day.

Israel threatened reprisals if the press filmed Gaza from above during airdrops.

This is why. A scene of destroyed & burnt out buildings in what is left of Gaza City, the pre-war home to 800,000 people.

Holy shit this story is packed. I did not expect Steam to give up control to a group backed by anti-LGBTQ lobbies, religious influence networks, and old school censorship advocates (obs not concerned people). To coordinate and target anything that doesn’t fit their worldview with Steam!
