  • Gameplay
  • UI and audio
addedI added translations in nine languages:
changedMost of these were created using AI. Let me explain. I was always a firm believer in manual translations and disliked machine translations. However, two things have recently changed my mind. Firstly, several people told me independently that any translation is better than no translation if you don't understand English well enough to enjoy the game. Secondly, advances in AI have made it possible to create translations that take larger contexts into account, yielding much better results than "old school" machine translators.
addedAdditionally, AI translation is more flexible, because I can e.g. translate a new chapter in a matter of hours. And last but not least, it's significantly less expensive.
changedThat said, the result is not perfect. I'm well aware of that. There are inconsistencies, and some of the translations will undoubtedly sound strange to a native speaker. I consider this an experiment. If you test any of the translations, please let me know what you think. I'm curious to hear your reactions.

Thank you! Have fun and enjoy your summer!
