Hello everyone
Now that the uncle has returned to Jalopy, talking away and telling you his story. We felt it would be best to translate the game so more players are able to enjoy his ramblings and the narrative. Plus, we really would like to see what “OOOF!” looks like when translated to several other languages.
The community has been great in providing us with feedback and reporting bugs (Yes, we’re still on the case with some of those pesky buggers!) and we would like to continue the collaboration to help improve the game further. We’ve had several players offer to help us volunteer to translate the game into their language and we are at a stage where translation will make a lot of sense.
We’re looking for your help in translating Jalopy into as many languages as possible. We’ve handpicked 13 key languages but wish to add more in the future.
To sign up and help us translate Jalopy, please go to - https://poeditor.com/join/project/QOyDrEXOTu
During the sign-up process, you can pick the language you wish to translate to. English will be the default language translated from.
Once you have signed up, and have been accepted by one of our team, you can then begin translating. The site itself should run through a small tutorial to introduce you to the platform.
You can then change, edit and proof-read translations or even mark current translations to say they are not 100% correct.
once each language reaches an almost complete state, we will then start to implement the language into the game and look for testers to help check the language within the game itself.
We also plan to set up a specific forum within the discussion so that people can communicate with each other about issues or questions they may have.
We will be rewarding those who translate a large portion of the text with some exclusive goodies! There will be news on what these will be in the coming weeks or months.
If you have any questions about translating the game, please contact us at [email protected]. We have also added a small FAQ to our discussions post which can be found here - http://steamcommunity.com/app/446020/discussions/0/1483235412200557493/
