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.

It's funny how a good creative translation needs a lot more skill than dry legal translation, because legal is repetitive but creative writing is never the same and the translator has to constantly work hard to balance meaning, tone, intent, etc. But legal translation is paid 10x more than creative.

I've never taken any writing courses.
The last language course I took was ENG 100 in the first year of uni.
I'm no authority.
But I can tell you as a writer to read your writing aloud.
Listen to how the words mesh.
Listen to it if it were music.
Listen to its heartbeat.
Make it SOUND good.

Si algo me gusta de España es que la gente relacione lugares con comida.

- Madre mía, la paella valenciana.
- Voy a Galicia.
- Buaah es que las porciones allá, una locura.
- Tengo un amigo en Murcia.
- ¡Chacho, las migas murcianas!
- 46 ºC en Andalucía.
- ¡Con su gazpachito!

As a proud #LateAdopter, I finished Disco Elysium only yesterday. What an amazing piece of art. No other game I ever played came close to this kind of social, psychological and political critique with such witty storytelling. Not to mention the fantastic twist on the CRPG genre.
