Je reprends tout doucement par ici après des semaines intenses depuis l’ADDON 🫠

Je bosse sur plusieurs projets sympas en coulisses, mais avant ça, il y a le Game Camp qui arrive ! ✨

Venez me faire coucou si vous me croisez, ou réservez un créneau via MeetToMatch pour parler loca (mais pas que)

Ce qu’on ne veut pas voir :
- Deux tableaux dans le même onglet
- Les différents en-têtes disposés en ligne plutôt qu’en colonne

(oui, j’ai déjà eu des fichiers organisés comme ça 🥲)
March 17, 2025 at 6:30 AM
Exemple en image
- Colonne “Key” (ou StringID), avec un nom explicite, comme « Scene1Dialog4Choice1 » au lieu de « H54JHUDM26457 ».
– Commentaires (personnage, référence culturelle, etc.).
– Longueur maximale du texte. (bsky.app/profile/orel...)
– Chaque langue dans une colonne.

1. Tester quels sont les caractères que la police peut afficher pour les différentes langues choisies.

Avoir une police trop stylée, c’est bien, mais ne pas pouvoir afficher les lettres accentuées ou autres caractères, ouch.

Day 24 of my #Xl8mas portfolio

No game today, but I'm taking this opportunity to thank everyone who credits their translator teams:
✨ everyone of you who credit by default.
✨ everyone who acknowledges the translators' work.

Day 23 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar (the end is near)

Today's game is under NDA! It's a mobile game that I quite enjoyed translating despite all the challenges it presented.

Day 22 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Today's game is Justice Sucks!

You will never look at your robot vacuum cleaner the same way again 👀

Let's explore and settle on planets with this sandbox game to discover new worlds, and…

Today's game is Magin!

For my second collab with Quentin and Marie-Paule (and the team @fromthevoid.bsky.social 🤍), I had once again the pleasure to proofread their translation

December 18, 2023 at 8:10 PM
Days 16 and 17 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Those are another set under NDA and without credits.

The first one is a 4X game and the second had a sort of "Cyberpunk meets Lovecraft" vibe.
December 17, 2023 at 9:31 PM
Day 14 & 15 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Yesterday was hectic, so there are two games today: Despot's Game: Dystopian Battle Simulator and Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot

A proofreading collab' with@fromthevoid.bsky.social

Today's game is the cute but addictive Super Auto Pets!

Day 11 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Today's game is Oxenfree II: Lost Signals!

What a chatty game! (If you played Oxenfree I, nothing new for you here.) Sometimes it's quite hard to keep up with all what is said, but that's the point, right? 🧵
December 11, 2023 at 4:15 PM
Day 10 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Another mobile game under NDA (not credited)

This one is a sports game.

Not everyone likes working on sports games. It ranges from those who see it as a way to learn something new, and those who wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot pole.
December 10, 2023 at 6:15 PM
Day 9 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Today's game is another game under NDA. And uncredited, both because of my agency client and the lack of credits in general in mobile games, but that's another story 🙄

But I still like this localization challenge 🧵⬇
December 9, 2023 at 4:14 PM
Day 8 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Today's game is I Am Future

You can start to see a pattern here, as this is yet another collab' with @fromthevoid.bsky.social but this time, I reviewed @punnymercenary.bsky.social's work!

🧵

December 6, 2023 at 10:00 AM
Day 5 of my #Xl8mas portfolio calendar

Today's game is the ink- and turn-based strategy game Inkulinati from Yaza Games

I had the pleasure to edit @mittovac.bsky.social's work and throw some creature names ideas here and there (I like our bishop cat "Archavêque")
