Working on localization, never did anything like that before! There isn't much text in the game, so it's mostly about replacing all hard-coded strings with localization calls.
🧵Looking to support some gamedevs that are active on Mastodon? Then make sure to check out these Steam Next Fest demos! (Event lasts till the 16th of October, but some demos might be available for longer)
Played some #jumplightodyssey in the #SteamNextFest. The game's aesthetic is fantastic, but this is a type of game I've never played before. Takes some getting used to, but the game is fun.
So my font (Hermit by Pablo Caro) didn't have Cyrillic characters, so I took Noto Sans, generated mSDF for Cyrillic charset, made a python script that merges two fonts, and voila!
Rotwood looks great - an almost isometric kinda roguelike. Check the trailer. Very much my kind of game. I'll be trying this when it comes out.
The demo is in the Steam Next Fest (link below) and you can play it free the next few days. And you totally should, and you should tell me how it is, since I have nothing to play it on. 😂
Das #SteamNextFest ist vorbei und alle Videos sind auf meinem YouTube-Kanal hochgeladen. Jetzt möchte ich meinen Top-5 #IndieGames noch eine Bühne bieten, damit sie nicht untergehen.
The SteamNextFest starts this week. Exactly one year ago, we took part in this event, which became the starting point of our journey. In a week I plan to make final update early access before release. I am very worried and little scary
Noreya: The Gold Project is incredible. But also incredibly frustrating. It's a fascinating metroidvania where the protagonist is a pawn in a battle between gods. The style, the feel of the game is fantastic, and the gameplay is interesting. However, it has many flaws and frustrations. Let me explain. #SteamNextFest https://store.steampowered.com/app/1760330/Noreya_The_Gold_Project/
One thing that was weird to me about #SteamNextFest was that games were primarily displayed in order by popularity, or by something that mirrored popularity. So even though there were at least 600+ games, I got much less exposure to the ones outside the top 50 or so. Anyone have a strategy for breaking out of this bubble and finding stuff they liked that wasn't as popular?
