[UNPAID] [VOLUNTEER] [LOCALIZATION] ES-LATAM Translator looking for indie projects & collaborators

[ OFFER FOR DEVS ]

Hi there! I'm offering my help to small indie devs and studios to translate and localize their games into Latin American Spanish. I've been working on some small projects, all of them visual novels, but I am open to helping you translate any type of game!

TL;DR: I translate/localize indie games (any genre) into Latin American Spanish. Unpaid, volunteer work—reach out if interested!

[ OFFER FOR TRANSLATORS ]

I'm looking to team up with prospective translators or people who are interested in video games and the game localization industry to form a small indie localization team. It doesn't matter where you're from, or if you have previous translation experience—if you are fluent in Spanish and English (other languages are also welcome, though I won't be able to assist you with the translation process), I would be more than happy to partner up with you!

The goal is to build a portfolio, gain hands-on experience working as a team, and gradually take on more challenging projects. If things go well, we could potentially turn the team into a professional localization service in the future.

Keep in mind that this is VOLUNTEER (UNPAID) WORK. 

TL;DR: I want to form a volunteer indie localization team. Are you fluent in ES/EN? No experience needed—reach out to collaborate! (PS: Other languages are also welcome!)


[ ABOUT ME ]

I am a university student. I'm very close to finishing my master's degree in translation, so I'd like to branch out into different areas of translation that interest me and gain experience. I've taken many (loads, actually) translation and linguistics courses over the past few years, and I've also been attending some audiovisual translation and localization congresses and workshops in the last couple of months, so I can assist you not only with the translation itself, but also with any issues that may arise during the localization process (preparation of the translation strings and hard-coded text, adapting the format to be compatible with unsupported languages, and game testing and proofreading).

I'm still building my professional experience in game localization, but I'm very interested in the field and enjoy learning by working on real projects.

For fellow translators and newcomers, I'm also happy to share what I've learned about localization workflows and translation strategies while learning from others along the way. I'd love to create a localization team, collaborate, and build something cool together.

TL;DR: Translation university student with some hands-on localization experience. Open to help with translation, game prep, and testing. I'm also happy to help newcomers and collaborate with fellow translators.

Hi! This sounds really cool. Not sure if you're open to collaborating with a Vietnamese translator as well, but Iโ€™d love to join. Iโ€™m a Vietnamese translator with experience, and Iโ€™d love to partner up to build a team and take on projects together.

Yes, of course! I'll tell you what I've got planned. My idea is to create a Discord server for people to share information about prospective translation projects and useful resources for translators. I think I will divide the server into two. There will be some channels for Spanish speaking translators, and also some other communication channels where people from all around the world can communicate in English. I'm also working on a specific category of channels for suggesting translation projects, finding someone to collaborate with, and sharing and looking for resources that might help you with your work.
Would you want me to send you the invitation link? (Idk if you use Discord.)

Yes, definitely! I do use Discord. Mine is jennyjane149. Feel free to add me.

Hey Just checking in is this request still open?

Iโ€™d love to help if youโ€™re still looking for someone Iโ€™m ready to get started and would be happy to discuss the details your goals and how I can help feel free to reply here or reach me on Discord for a quicker conversation kelvinperry12 also if you have any other projects or requests you need help with, feel free to send them my way Iโ€™d be glad to take a look!

Yes! Of course! It will be open for as long as it takes (meaning, the offer won't close in the near future lmao) to grow a community where everyone can participate and help each other. I just sent you a friend invite to kelvinperry12. Let me know if you did't receive it, I can find another way to add you.

I just told you half a day ago to stop spamming the forum with copy-pasted posts!

Just so everyone knows, a user called "Kelvin Perry" has been spamming all posts and flooding this forum with copy-paste messages. I just realized. Please report them and block them, hopefully they will stop doing that.
