One of my key strengths is handling proper names and ensuring they are translated consistently throughout your game, keeping the experience cohesive.

FAQ
What file formats do you work with?
I can work with standard formats like .doc, .pdf, and .txt, but i'm also comfortable handling .json, .xml, .po, or Excel/Google Sheets files. I’ll ensure your code tags and variables (e.g., {player_name} or \n) remain untouched and functional.
How do you ensure consistency with names and lore?
I maintain a terminology glossary for every project. This ensures that character names, fictional locations, and specific items (like "Health Potion" vs. "Heiltrank") remain identical across the UI, dialogue, and marketing materials.
What types of games do you localize?
I work with indie, mobile, and PC games, including Steam releases. I localize UI text, dialogue, item descriptions, tutorials, and menus, adapting the tone to fit your game’s genre and target audience.
Will you proofread my existing German translation?
Yes. If you have a machine-translated or "rough" translation, I can edit and polish it to ensure it sounds native, professional, and consistent throughout. Please note that I do not offer special discounted pricing for this.
Do you translate word-for-word or adapt the text?
I focus on localization, not literal translation. That means adapting humor, tone, and cultural references so the German version feels natural and immersive for players.
Can I request revisions or give feedback?
Absolutely. I’m open to feedback and include revisions to make sure the localization matches your vision and works perfectly within your game.
Are you a native speaker?
Yes. I am a native German speaker born in Germany. I have a deep understanding of the local culture, nuances, and current linguistic trends.
