Repeated intro
Hello veteran nubheads and newly-assimilated nublings!
Extracted changes
- Compatibility
- Gameplay
Today I break my silence to squeeze out a small patch which fixes some minor bugs and introduces the first localization for NNF - Brazilian Portuguese! If you've got a Brazilian friend, let 'em know that today marks the beginning of Nubby's renaissance in Brazil! I'd like to give a huge thank you to NNF community member and talented translator, Frank Lopes, for the incredible volunteer work on NNF's BRPT localization + NNF's steam page BRPT localization. If you're one of the 5,213 Brazilians who have purchased NNF, I hope this addition elevates your NNF experience!
If you are a translator and would like to volunteer to translate NNF, please contact me via email (andersonethan1020@gmail.com) or via discord (@mogdogblog). Note that there are already translations in the works for Spanish, Russian, and Norwegian, Polish, and Swedish. Unless I specify otherwise in the coming months, these languages are already covered by community volunteers. If you'd like to provide assistance but you're afraid that the technical side of translating a videogame will be above your technical experience level, let me assure you that it's not as complicated as you think it is. You do not need a background in game development or programming to help translate!
One last thing before the patch notes! If you're here looking for news on nubby mobile, this post sadly contains none.... BUT if you check back again around this time tomorrow (2/20), I'm posting a newsletter here on steam that is primarily going to be about nubby mobile (plus some fun news for nubby mega-fans about something great happening on Nubby's 1-year birthday on March 7, 2026). Obviously, the wait for NNF's mobile port has taken longer than we were all hoping for and I haven't talked publicly about why that is for a few months. As a result, some valid concerns have been raised in the nubby community about the whereabouts of the port. I've been so busy working on NNF's mobile port and developing my next title that I have neglected to publicly share news about the mobile port, so for that I am sorry. To quell any of your nubby-mobile related fears until I post tomorrow's newsletter, I'll leave you with this: It is done, but not quite released yet. We are so close!
Thanks for playing and I hope you appreciate the patch, especially if you're Brazilian! ~Mog
NNF v1.4.3 Patch Notes: ==========
(Note: When you download and launch v1.4.3, there should be no version compatibility issues with the previous version (v1.4.2). In other words, if you were running the latest version on steam, you can load an autosaved in-progress run without running into problems. I cannot speak for versions that came before v1.4.2, so fair warning if that applies to you.)
Additions: ==========
-Implemented the Brazilian Portuguese localization for NNF's in-game text. Note: To set your expectations for the new BRPT localization and for all future localizations - the vast majority of in-game text you will encounter is translated, but it will not be 100% comprehensive. Everything fundamental to actually playing to game is translated, so ideally a non-english speaker should be able to understand and enjoy the core gameplay just as much as an English speaker would. That being said, there are a few exceptions where text will remain written in English because of technical limitations and linguistic boundaries. These exceptions are: A) Graphical/artistic text (e.g. the big, red "Nubby's Number Factory" title logo in the middle of the title screen) B)
