My daughter bought her first Pokémon cards yesterday ✨ She and I both are complete noobs halp

This is why you cannot trust AI disclaimers. And since Localization tends to be a prime target for corner-cutting, those mishaps are always painfully obvious.

🎁 𝗚𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗔𝗪𝗔𝗬 🎁 In partnership with our friends @tinybuildgames.bsky.social, we're offering 2 Steam keys for each of these games we lovingly localized 💝 To participate: 🤍 Follow us 💬 Tell us which game you want & in which language you'll play! 🔄 Repost this Good luck! Results on the 19th 🤞

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you have been to: Tool - Faenza 2001 Bruce Springsteen - Florence 2003 Ryan Adams - Dublin 2008 Patti Smith - Offenbach 2014 Elio e le Storie Tese - Roma 2024

I graduated in Translation and went on to pursue a PhD in Linguistics. My flatmate in Dublin was working as a tester at Activision. When I moved to Germany I looked for a similar job, and that's how I started working in games.

Hello language nerds! (affectionate) We're looking for someone to localize the demo for @truthscrapper.bsky.social into PT-BR. Due to grant restrictions, you MUST be based in Ontario, Canada. If that's you, please reach out with your experience and rate per word via DM to me. Thank you!

Is this scary or superscary? #Halloween #AnotherWorld

Not to be taken for granted at all 💫 Thank you!

It's not everyday you are invited to a Hollow Knight themed birthday party ♥️

Use the Excel sheet

Today the internet lost Maru, cat of legend, so I'm putting out an empty cardboard box for him.

Herdling is OUT NOW! We’re stoked to finally invite you on this journey 🐐🦬🐏⛰️ Get the game now on Steam, Epic Game Store, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S or Game Pass, links below! We’ll give away 5 Steam keys among everyone who reposts this 🎉🎉🎉

(Post a screenshot of your first 5 Steam purchases and let Bluesky judge you) Do I like city-building strategy games? Apparently NOT

When you think you're done with a project, but then the devs reply to your queries, or the reviewer sends in some comments, or the PM adds some more lines, or... [add yours]

If you see this, quote post with a robot that isn’t from Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr Who or Transformers.

Hello!👋 I'm Laura, English > Italian translator and game localizer. I've been active in this field since 2011, first in-house at Nintendo and afterwards as a freelancer. Here's some of my work. Hit me up with your projects, I'll be available all summer! #PortfolioDay #TranslatorsInTheCredits

A bittersweet view on freelancing, in Italian. "Am I going anywhere?"

This is who runs this account.

Dear devs, "Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career." CHOOSE ITALIAN FOR YOUR GAME! 🇮🇹

Fun fact: I kept a diary from approx. 1994 to 2010. I wrote every single day from 1996 to 2008. Even if it was only a few lines or just "Nothing to report today". I think it was useful to sort out thoughts in my mind and, let's face it, I had tons of free time back then. 1/2

That's literally all I do as a translator, all day long. In my own native language

Get to know us better... From the Void Edition! 💫 Given what #TranslatorsintheCredits means to us, we figured this would be a cool way of introducing our epic translators 🤍 So for each question, you'll discover a member of our team & something about them! Let's do this 👀

Has someone told them already? Alguém já avisou? #phrase #memsource

One of the treats of working on DD has been hearing Wayne June's voice, for sure. To me it is pretty much the beating heart of the game.

Big Helmet Heroes is coming in just a week! 😱 This epic 3D beat’em up co-op adventure will be available in no less than 11 languages, thanks to your favorite little knights from the Void 🤍 Have a look! 👉 https://buff.ly/404z2ve #WishlistWednesday

Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school: Hello, I'm Laura and my essays are "trite and banal". (Erm, how about you stop giving us trite and banal topics such as puberty, adolescence and rebellion etc.)

We made a starter kit for ethical game localization! Useful for translators wishing to connect with others and for game devs, or anyone interested in game loc really 🤍 Feel free to share and let us know if you'd like to be included! 💫 go.bsky.app/3wN9Ep5
