I think I misspelled Ghost yesterday.

Speaking of GOY, the game itself has good gameplay, average storytelling, and extreme beautiful landscape viewing. But somehow, now days games became more complicated, involved with many things.

Fun fact, Chinese gamers call the protagonist Of Gohst Of Yotei "Rain Sis Of Yotei", because she has similar vibe of a Chinese internet influencer who named Rain Sis Of Dongbei. You have to admit they look very tough and strong. Chinese gamers kinda love this game #indiegame #indiedev #GohstOfYotei

In Chinese culture, there is no term sounds like or means "Hellfire", but there is a saying: You play with fire, eventually you will burn yourself. Stop adding nonsence when translate, it causes jokes and troubles. #indiegame #indiede #chineseculture

How far should a dev listen to gamers' opinions? We say 30%-40% maximumly. Is gamers' voice important? Yes! But are they always correct? No! As a dev, understanding the genre and the game, be confident not arrogant. Be better not be pleasing everyone. #indiegame #indiedev #GrokImagine

Marketing expense should always be a part of your budget, no matter you are making a game or doing other business. This world is full of products now, some hidden gems will always be hidden, sadly. #indiegame #indiedev

At this moment, we don't think the new Chinese localization could be perfect to all Chinese gamers, they are holding different opinions and tastes. Sometimes, a first-sight-click determines a translated word, even it's done wrong. #indiegame #indiedev #Silksong

The newest Chinese localization for Silksong (in-test-version) failed again. Whatever who TC work with, we think those translators have too much ego. They unnecessarily changed some terms. #indiegame #indiedev #localization #Silksong

We never put any agenda in localization. Localization isn't rewriting the original cultural contenxt to achieve some purposes. Localization is pure language exchange, respect the oringial context, and turn it into other languages accurately, and that's all! #indiegame #indiedev #localization

Bonfire/Camp trap is a ricky gameplay design. Most of times, it would fail, it breaks the trust between the gamers and the game. It's like a monster in your toilet, no where is ever safe. #indiegame #indiedev

low budget solution for creating better attack-feeling(how players feel when they do attack in games): 1, adding white flashlight when hitting enemy. 2,Hit-stop 3, screenshake 4, Instead of using realistic sound, try powerful SFX. #indiegame #indiedev

There is a professional Chinese gamer said: Hollow Knights and Silk Song are more like bullet heaven game, if you see each bug enemy as a bullet and its attack as a special bullet alternation, this game will become easier when you play it. #indiegame #indiedev #hollowknight #SilkSong

The most difficult part of localization is to translate jokes between different cultural backgrounds. And the most common jokes are dirty s3x jokes, well, that's human nature we guess, lol. #indiegame #indiedev #culture

Don't launch EA on Steam unless you already have a stable fan-base and wishlist with good numbers. Steam seems doesn't like to promote game in EA stage. We talked with few studios, the devs told us so. #indiedev #indiegame #steam #earlyaccess

Our company worked on Chinese localization for this wonderful historical game. We read some documents to make sure that our words are historical accurate. Somehow we managed staying faithful to the orginal texts yet still making everything fit in Chinese language nuances. #indiegame #IndieGameDev

It happens thousands of times. Asian gamers leave bad reviews first, they complain about the unreasonable difficulty, design flaws, bugs, then 2 weeks later, the western gamers start to leave bad reviews too. So don't be angry about Asian gamers, they play faster sometimes #indiegame #indiedev
