May the 4th.

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.”

Favorite verbs as of late: flag and report. Flag, flag, flag, report, report, report.

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!

🎮 You bet we had a passionate debate about AI and video game localization! Thanks to Pietro for giving us the opportunity to share our thoughts on such a hot topic, and to Belén Agulló for her insightful analysis. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdXw...

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. t.co/rVu6Hdeehn

We are looking for a German project manager to join our team at Native Prime. Is this you? More details in our LinkedIn post: www.linkedin.com/hiring/jobs/...

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!

Sooo I'm looking for new projects! Senior narrative designer with 10+ shipped games and 8+ years of experience, with an eclectic expertise - RPGs, FPS, puzzle games, VR and many more! Check out my portfolio! Grab a coffee! Let's talk! RT this! Take the day off! Enjoy softer skin!

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". 👇

Here we go. No sé yo cuánto duraré por aquí. 😆 En Mastodon también tengo cuenta... Y ahí está, muerta de risa. ¿Qué se cuece por el cielo?
