Flimsy

Japanese Translation

Added 2023-03-01 04:33:17 +0000 UTC

A Japanese translation for the game is in the works.

The game now contains both English and Japanese, and you can switch between both whenever you want.

This one is an important feature announcement. So I'll be making this as a public post.

This post will be very brief, as there are a few parts of this that haven't been fully set in stone. Specially since a few important pieces of this have just changed in the past couple of days.

The one thing I can fully share, is that the technical side of it is complete. It's something I had been working on for a few months on the background. The game can seamlessly switch between both languages while playing, and everything such as the menus, memory system, etc., are all capable of switching between both languages. Now it's just a matter of the text translation being finished and importing it into the engine.

There are a few pieces that aren't fully set yet, one of them being that I was originally going to do the translation myself, but as a last minute change, I am now in the process of handing the task over to someone else. Another piece that isn't fully set is that it's still a bit early to tell if the current manpower will be enough for it to be translated in time, or if I perhaps will need to search and get more people to work on translating it so that the translation can meet the internal release date I mentioned in the previous progress log.

Now I have opted to give this task to others, I am aiming to fully free myself from it so I can focus on other remaining tasks.

Again, there are a few things that have been changing in these past couple of days, so I'll wait until the picture is more clear before sharing more details on the translation.
