Hi! I’m developing a big update for my Unity project called Milliopoly, which is a language quiz game.

It features English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, and Italian. I already have an Italian translator working on the game with me, but I’ve been overwhelmed with the other languages.

What I need help with is: The game is based on multiple-choice questions. I have tons of them and would like someone who speaks either English, Portuguese, Spanish, or French to check them and find typos, errors, ambiguities, etc.

One example of question is:

{ “questionString”: “She ____ to school every day.”, “correctAnswer”: “goes”, “options”: [ “go”, “goes”, “going”, “gone” ], “communicativeGoals”: [ “Routine” ], “enablingGoals”: [ “Present Simple” ], “explanationLocalization”: { “en”: “Use ‘goes’ with he/she/it in the present simple. Add -es to verbs ending in -o, -ss, -sh, -x, -ch, or -z.”, “it”: “Usa ‘goes’ con he/she/it al present simple. Aggiungi -es ai verbi che terminano in -o, -ss, -sh, -x, -ch o -z.”, “pt-BR”: “Use ‘goes’ com he/she/it no present simple. Adicione -es aos verbos terminados em -o, -ss, -sh, -x, -ch ou -z.”, “pt”: “Usa ‘goes’ com he/she/it no present simple. Adiciona -es aos verbos terminados em -o, -ss, -sh, -x, -ch ou -z.”, “es”: “Usa ‘goes’ con he/she/it en el present simple. Añade -es a los verbos terminados en -o, -ss, -sh, -x, -ch o -z.”, “fr”: “Utilisez ‘goes’ avec he/she/it au présent simple. Ajoutez -es aux verbes se terminant par -o, -ss, -sh, -x, -ch ou -z.” }, “imagePath”: “”, “language”: “English”, “level”: 1, “type”: “Grammar” }

Just so you know, I sometimes use AI to generate questions, but always revise them to make them more natural and guarantee they’re correct, and that’s exactly what I need help with.

For now, I can offer Milliopoly Steam keys and, obviously, crediting. You can revise at your own pace and stop whenever you want. Please, hit me up on Discord if you feel like helping. :) Discord: zoemiranda

That's cool!
I am not an expert at the other languages, but I am learning some now if you are expanding into Swahili or Hawaiian. 

I would love to help out on the English side!
I have been both a technical writer on a number of time-sensitive projects (whitepapers, SOP, instruction, system design) and a developmental and line editor for fiction.

Questions I have for now
Do I need to be fluent in two of the languages listed?
Do you have a design document or a goal of "strict, absolute grammar rules" or more "here's how an English/Spanish/French speaker would say it" type of editing?

Hey! Thanks for replying. Glad you liked the idea.

You don’t have to be fluent on more than one. Just one is enough to revise.

I am interested in adding more languages in the future, but not right now. Adding Italian is already giving me (and the translator) a lot of work.

Send me a message on discord so we can discuss the other topics.

Hey! Thanks! I couldn’t figure out how to DM someone on itch.io (or at least not from my phone). I’ll try again when I get to my PC.

But if you can send me a Discord message, it’s zoemiranda. :)

Nice! I just add you (my username is cavok)

Hey! I am a native English speaker, raised in Ireland so using the Irish/UK variation of the language. I am looking for volunteer jobs to create my own portfolio. Are you still looking for text proof-readers?

Yes! Please, add me on Discord: zoemiranda

heya!

I'm a student doing a Master's in translation, and my dream job is to work for the video game localization industry. The languages I work with are EN and European Portuguese, and I would love to be able to expand my portfolio by doing volunteer jobs. Are you still looking ? :)
