The Indie Duet 🎵

The Dungeon Experience on Steam The Dungeon Experience is a comedy first-person adventure about a low-level mudcrab chasing his dream of helping YOU experience the true bliss of Financial Freedom*

Testez-moi donc la démo en VF de The Dungeon Experience !

Selon @indieduet.bsky.social qui chapeaute la traduction française de ce sommet insurpassable de l'eHumour, ce jeu est "une hahaventure en vue subjective qui mêle adroitement finance et crustacés".

Alors comme ça, on est enclin à la rigolade ?

Je vous conseille "The Dungeon Experience" qui sort une démo localisée en français par le duo @luciet.bsky.social et @punnymercenary.bsky.social.

L'Indépendance financière n'a pas de prix (c'est une démo).

Many thanks to The Most Games, our lovely PM Valentina Krylova, attentive tester Anthony Pinna, Lucile Danilov for her help and trust—and of course, everyone at Emotion Spark Studio and Owlcat Games, for tackling important issues while telling a great story!

Over one year and 250k words, we explored every corner of the valley, learned to know Mr Harrow's many faces and enjoyed the company of each character roaming the quaint desert town.

It was, overall, a very enjoyable stay. 5/5, would attend court-mandated therapy again.

Rue Valley (Emotion Spark Studio | @owlcatgames.bsky.social) and its captivating time loop are finally out, and we're delighted to announce that we have translated this narrative adventure into French alongside @locdandloaded.net, who helped us with the prologue 🕣

We're both very proud to have collaborated with Niklas on the French loc of Let's Freeze Some Penguins! Huge thanks to him for being an all-around amazing dev 💙

We also fully agree on his stance against AI, which has no place in games or any creative work.

Stay tuned for this cool release 🐧

It's that time again! Here's whether #TheGameAwards 2024 nominees (GOTY/Indie categories) include all #TranslatorsInTheCredits

Happy to report the situation has dramatically improved over the last few years, but these don't show the whole picture of #gameloc crediting state...

We made a starter kit for ethical game localization! Useful for translators wishing to connect with others and for game devs, or anyone interested in game loc really 🤍

Feel free to share and let us know if you'd like to be included! 💫

We feel very lucky to be working with great folks who still fight for ethics and quality. Thanks to them, 2024 has been a pretty busy year for the Indie Duet 🎶 Our little duo is growing, learning, and... we might be translating our biggest narrative project to date 👀

We also faced some leggy foes in Kill It With Fire 2, as well as other terrifying things like poems! Luckily, the @fromthevoid.bsky.social team was there with us, and they are fire 😎 (But we still packed our flamethrowers.)

While We Wait Here is a strange narrative gem enhanced by beautifully nostalgic PS1 aesthetics. This diner simulation with a twist is very dear to our hearts. Many thanks to Bad Vices Games!

We missed yet another #portfolioday, but as the end of the year is (already?!) fast approaching, we wanted to present our work on five new releases from the last months. A quite unique and tuneful blend of translated games, if you will 🥁
