changedHello EveryoneAs I'm working towards the completion of the main story portion of the game (Chapter 4: Part Two) me and the team have started to bring back some localization features. A community member has even stepped up and has helped us translate the game to German. But there's more to talk about which I will do right here in this post. Let's go!
changedCommunity Localization Files + Guide AvailableA number of people have offered to help translate the game into a different language and I decided that now is a good time to start localizing the game in an umber of languages. We will cover Russian and Dutch internally and have received help from a community member to translate the game to German. And now anyone who wants to help can easily do so. I've written up a Community Localization Guide for anyone who wants to help. Links to the files, and other important info, guidelines, etc are all available in the guide which you can find in the link below: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1516876834 Current Limitations: The game has graphical assets that are currently not set up to be translated into our pipeline. I am going to look into how I can set up a possible way of translating these. There are also a number of other objects in the game that are not set up yet. Luckily these should not impact anything of great importance regarding the game's narrative. Translating these will be attempted while we're in the polishing phase.
changedGerman Localization Now AvailableThanks to our community member Markus and our own QA team member Mondrian, we are now able to roll out German localization for STARDROP. So a huge thanks to them! We are internally working on Russian localization and hopefully we'll be able to announce other languages in the future soon!
addedContent Creators SpotlightI also wanted to put a spotlight on some content creators out there that have played the game. I watch almost every let's play out there and always attempt to pop into streams. I had a blast watching them and I wanted to share some of them down below. Insipid Comments : This guy is one of my personal favorites. It took him quite some time to get through the game but I had so much fun joining him on his journey. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jppnqTzqiuA&index=18&list=PLBiiBHdmdjanmTxU9Av4Ail8bFSi7TXqs Mystic's Library : I approached Mystic myself after I found out about her and I'm glad I did. She has a lot of funny vocal outbursts and her reactions are so much fun to watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_v20n-mkNLA Rhexah : Another really funny content creator. His video is full of hilarious reactions and observations. I'm always thankful when someone is this enthusiastic about the game and yet another reason to give it my all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f83U1SHB9ig I will do more Content Creator spotlights in the future because I think they deserve the attention. There are more funny videos out there and I like to share these with you guys.
addedOne Whole New AchievementThat's right I added one new achievement which you can unlock at the very start of the game.
addedScreenshotsI don't want to reveal too much about the new levels but I'm very happy with were their heading. I just wanted to show some of them off here without any context. I know it's a big tease but it'll be worth the wait!

Hello Everyone

A community member has even stepped up and has helped us translate the game to German. But there's more to talk about which I will do right here in this post. Let's go!
Community Localization Files + Guide Available
A number of people have offered to help translate the game into a different language and I decided that now is a good time to start localizing the game in an umber of languages. We will cover Russian and Dutch internally and have received help from a community member to translate the game to German. And now anyone who wants to help can easily do so.

Content Creators Spotlight
I also wanted to put a spotlight on some content creators out there that have played the game. I watch almost every let's play out there and always attempt to pop into streams. I had a blast watching them and I wanted to share some of them down below. Insipid Comments: This guy is one of my personal favorites.

One Whole New Achievement
That's right I added one new achievement which you can unlock at the very start of the game.
On top of that I also attempted to fix another achievement (The Plot Thickens) which some people have reported as not working so that one should be working now, I hope.
Screenshots
I don't want to reveal too much about the new levels but I'm very happy with were their heading. I just wanted to show some of them off here without any context. I know it's a big tease but it'll be worth the wait!
Final Words
So, as always that's it for now. I'm not entirely sure when the next update will be, because I am very focused on finishing the next real content release and it requires my attention. I wanted to also once again thank the community for all their support.So, please take care and I'll see you guys in the next update! Joure & Team V
