🔥What a game to work on!!! Big thank you to the localization team that made this possible. 😈13 languages! +VO in 7 locales. Special thanks to Jesús Redondo for being at the helm! 🔥
We’re thrilled to announce we have worked on the localization of DOOM: The Dark Ages by @idSoftware / @bethesda.net. Available now.

Bringing that fury to life in multiple languages? It was a hell of a job!

Stand your ground as the DOOM Slayer and rip and tear through the infernal hordes 🔥

Congrats to @kamotachi.bsky.social
@mameshibagames.com on the launch of #KinnikuNeko: SUPER MUSCLE CAT on consoles! It was a lot of fun localizing this game. We've taken care of the Japanese recordings. We can't wait to see the players' reactions. A flexing, alien-fighting cat - what's not to love?

“Please translate to the best of your ability.”"Use your best judgement.”
“Gender neutral language is best.”
“Please don’t adapt character names.”

I've been busy 3D printing these last days. It looks like we finally got the settings just fine. I need to get better at washing and curing, but it is very rewarding to see things coming along! Got a box full of failed prints, but I guess that's the way. Next step: painting!

A few weeks ago I was invited to appear on this cool YouTube show, Katorijiji, with @larasmirnova.bsky.social and Jorge Yoryas. I used my 15 minutes of fame to explain what localisation is, and took the opportunity to advocate for loc team crediting.

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince is out today. I worked alongside Beatriz Esteban and Aurora Martínez-Esparza Ramírez on the Spanish localization of this title (thanks to Shloc). As usual, it was a pleasure embarking on this adventure with them!

I am taking a little break from social media, just days after I joined this one 🙈. I have uninstalled X, bluesky and Discord from my phone (though I will check them on my PC now and then). I might come back, but I feel like I have to spend less time scrolling through posts!

A few weeks ago, I shared some insights at IndieDevDay on the key aspects of preparing a game for localization. I delved into the usual suspects, with a special emphasis on "context in text". 👇
