English-Russian translator working with gamedev and indiedev folks. Worked on Vampire Survivors, Among Us, Darkest Dungeon, Tinykin, and many others. Let's localize your game into Russian: [email protected]
My biggest pet peeve: a $3.5-trillion company that can build world-class tech but apparently draws the line at fitting text on two buttons.

This was spotted at Gamescom Asia last week. 0,01$ per word to edit AI slop.
DMM's website says: "Average cost reduction: Appx. 75%
Translation time reduction:50%"
They forgot the most important stat: "Quality reduction: 100%"

It's been 5 years, I think, and Docusign still has this hilarious bug where they translated "OK" button as "Oklahoma" in Russian. 😅😅😅
Every document I sign, I see this an chuckle :D I guess it's part of the lore now since they refuse to fix it? 🤔

Your work with my stuff on DD2 has been so impressive, from the thoughtful loc questions to the excellent choice for certain nouns. Translation/localisation is an art form just like writing

There's a once-great localization agency currently struggling to assemble a loc team for a huge high-profile project offering rates to the tune of €0.056 translation, €0.026 review and €25 hourly for FRENCH.
If they contact you, DO NOT TAKE IT.
They CANNOT get away with it.

Tinykin was a work of art! We need more games like this. Games that let our creativity flow. An absolute gem of a game!
"Tons of humour and references (including some skilfully added by localizers), high-quality Russian translation..."
Cheers to our translators @itranslategames.bsky.social & Arty for their amazing work! And many thanks to @splashteam.bsky.social for writing Tinykin in the first place 🤍

Hi! So... I have good news.
I've translated LOST RECORDS - BLOOM AND RAGE to PTBR!!!!
I'm a HUGE Life is Strange fan. Bought these two drawings back in 2017 or so. The game helped during some tough times.
Working with the original devs on this is a dream come true!
