Here's your end of year reminder for all my fellow translators: a lot of stressful things are probably on their way--a lot of "super urgent", "ASAP" pre-holiday rush requests. So, remember to be kind to yourself: give it your best, but no one can be expected to do the impossible. #gameloc #l10n #xl8

HI BLUESKY!!
I'm making a little game called Staraway where you explore a weird little universe with a magical telescope and nothing goes wrong ever. 💜
(If it looks fun you should wishlist it!!)

"You're a gamer, aren't you? You can translate games and get paid. How lucky is that!", they said. Clearly, whoever said that didn't know Blizzard would be personally attacking my wallet 10 years later. 😳 #gameloc #overwatch

The best part about being in a new platform is everyone is showing us their work, and I've discovered so many lovely pixel games and platformers already. My Steam wishlist is gonna explode and I'll have no regrets. 💜
