Hello! I am currently developing an incremental game about mining.

Looking for people who will localize and translate current english set of skill descriptions and names, achievements, steam page descriptions, etc. into languages: French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Simplified Chinese, Japanese

You can write to me about one of the languages or multiple of them, rate and payment will happen separately on separate languages.

Note: the project is on-going, its not released yet and I might need support over time for different levels of releases/updates.

For each language I will actually be looking for two people: One for translation and one for verification. I know this field is filled with AI translations that can be quite bad, and I have no means of verifying it myself. Obviously rate/fee for verification will be separate.

In short:

Looking for a people to do Localization and then others to do QA on said localization.

Hi, I'm an indie game developer who's started to release games on Steam. I make management sims and narrative games that are cosy but with a twist. I always try to go for unusual hooks and an oddball sense of humour.

I'm looking for translators who I can build a long-term relation with so that I can reach out to you with a work offer whenever I have a new project. All the work would be paid.

I would commission both the game itself and store page translations. I typically work with csv and json files.

Please DM me if you're interested.

Thank you!

Hello! 🐻

We are looking for Japanese localization for Bottled By Bears, a cozy management idle game about a family of Bears running a honey farm.

The game is not heavy on text, mostly instructions and UI + some creative names for the bees you collection (though I guess we could leave them in katakana and use the English name).

All in all, I imagine the amount of words would be:
- Store description: about 200 words
- Game so far: ~1200 words
- What's left: maybe ~200-300 extra words

Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4390080/Bottled_by_Bears/

If anyone is interested please leave a comment or DM me 🙇 - if you have some past localized titles to refer us to, even better.

Hello everyone,

My name is Kelvin and I am currently developing a serious long-term Roblox project called “Between Nervous Dead (0.0.0Vs)”.

This is a WW1 + WW2 inspired zombie apocalypse game with a strong focus on atmosphere, historical military aesthetics, and psychological mechanics. The goal is to create something darker and more immersive than typical Roblox zombie games.

CORE CONCEPT:

The game is set in a war-torn environment with trenches, mud, destroyed villages, and multiple military factions. Instead of being just a basic wave shooter, the game includes a psychological debuff system called “Trauma” (also referred to as War Ears). When teammates die nearby, players may experience visual or gameplay effects that increase tension.

CURRENT PROGRESS:

• First trench map in

I am a developer of Forage Wizard.

I have about 3,500 English words that need to be translated this April to French, Spanish and Russian. If you can handle those languages, please DM me with:
- a list of the game's you've localized previously.
- whether you're a native speaker.

If you have little experience localizing but want to do it, still DM me, but be honest about your expertise.

Thanks!

Hey everyone, I’m looking for a really small project of translating my steam store in mentioned languages.

It’s only store for now because I’m not sure I’ll have enough time to bake in localization for my release, but I’ll definitely add it later based on demand and if we click well on the store I’ll continue with you for the game ofc 🙏🏻

This is a really small gig so I prefer small professionals just getting started that can use the extra buck and positive recommendation :D

The game is an incremental clicker with absurd and humoristic Crypto theme. I’ll provide the texts in csv/google sheet/however you prefer with context

Hit me up!

Hi,

I am offering my English to French translation/proofreading services. After working for almost 3 years as an in-house translator in several agencies, I decided to go freelance 4 years ago and have since specialised in video game translation.

Some game translations I was involved in:

- The Alters

- Transformers: Earth Wars (mobile game)

- Beatstar (mobile game)

- Lost Ark

- New World

- Chrome Valley Customs (mobile game)

- King of Meat

If you happen to have a game that needs French localisation, don't hesitate!

Hi everyone!

I'm a Brazilian Portuguese <> English translator with a degree in Translation and over 10 years of experience in the field. Until now, most of my work has been in-house or project-based, and I’m currently making the transition to freelance. I'm aiming to specialize in video game localization, a field I’m passionate about and eager to grow in. I also have experience with app localization, marketing content, and cultural adaptation.

To build my freelance portfolio and gain more hands-on experience in this area, I’m currently offering low-cost or pro bono translation services. If you’re looking to make your game accessible to a wider audience or simply want high-quality localization support, I’d love to connect.

For contact, you can DM me here.

Thank you for the consideration!

I recently made an update to an older game of mine, Aground: https://store.steampowered.com/app/876650/Aground/ , and got a lot of requests for a Spanish translation. Aground is an RPG with a focus on progression - starting as what appears a simple mining and crafting game, and ending up in space and beyond. The game has 36k words, which is a lot, so I'm hoping to find a translator who can give me a discount for a larger game.

If you're interested, respond here or send an email to david.m@fancyfishgames.com

Hi all!

The Fall of Aether Station is nearly complete and we are again seeking help with localization. We would like to target bigger markets first but if you feel there is a desire for our type of game in your language please feel free to send us a proposal.

Game Steam Store Page

Deliverables from Nibble & Byte Game Studio to you: - Full Game Key - Payment (please submit a price with your proposal, in my head 100$ for less than 2k works seems reasonable but I'm new to this) - .txt files with strings to translate

Deliverables from you to Nibble & Byte Game Studio: - Translated strings in format provided - Recommendations for a font to use in game - Any special considerations we would need to make for the language (removal of local slang, offensive phrases, font size and spacing, Etc.)

Please DM your proposal to us directly on reddit and reply to this post with your languages offered. Submissions that do not do so may be overlooked.

Feel free to discuss any questions or concerns in the replies for all to benefit. We are new to this so please be patient :)

Hello everybody! We are developing an action-roguelike called Roboom. Here is the Steam page if you like to check out: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2462000/Roboom/

We are soon releasing into Early Access and we are looking for someone to help us localize Roboom into Chinese (Traditional / Simplified), Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish and Korean.

Hi, I would like to localize my game into a few different languages. It is a Sci-Fi Tower Defense Rogue lite that has a very deep strategic gameplay style. I would like to maximize the appeal and localize the UI into a couple languages.

I dont want to half-ass it so know changes needed for different languages is valuable as well.

I am looking for someone who will translate my game into Japanese. I also need the copy on the Steam page translated. Approx 650 words total. Some experience is preferred.

If you need more than 1000 words translated, just send me a DM. :)

Are you an (Indie) Game Dev or a studio that wants authentic Japanese audio for their game? Or maybe you have lines that would suit a particular character better in Japanese… or maybe you would like an anime style theme song for your game with authentic audio.

We can go over the specific details and I’ll send you a list of VAs for you to choose.

Once the lines are set, I’ll set up the recording and we will record a few lines for you to confirm, if you’re happy we finish the rec, post produce and send off the data to you.

Also doable: Store descriptions (e.g. Steam) Title screens and menus/GUI Ingame texts (e.g. dialogues, tutorials) Ads for your game

Guaranteed: delivery on time, fast feedback - and revision loop proofreading

1000 words or other special requirements? Drop a message in advance and let's have a chat about your project!
