[PAID] [Translation] Looking for translators for cosy games

Hi, I'm an indie game developer who's started to release games on Steam. I make management sims and narrative games that are cosy but with a twist. I always try to go for unusual hooks and an oddball sense of humour.

I'm looking for translators who I can build a long-term relation with so that I can reach out to you with a work offer whenever I have a new project. All the work would be paid.

I'm open to all languages so do reach out with anything. I want to bring my games to as many people as I can.

I would commission both the game itself and store page translations. I typically work with csv and json files.

Please contact me at pouncingtigerdev@gmail.com if you're interested.

Thank you!

Update

Thank you so much for all the emails! I'm really touched that people are interested in my silly games. I now have translators for these languages:

Arabic

Spanish (Europe and Latin America)

French

Italian

Japanese

Polish

Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil)

Russian

Greek

Romanian

Turkish

Vietnamese

Ukrainian

Hello! I sent you an email for an Italian translation!

Hey Pouncing Tiger.
You didn't answered my mail since last week. I would be glad to help you with FR translation.

Is this paid request still open for Hebrew localization? Hebrew is my native language, and I speak English fluently. I can work with game and store-page text in CSV or JSON using an AI-assisted workflow. We can discuss the brief and feedback here.

Hi Pouncing Tiger — is Simplified Chinese (zh-CN) still needed, and would you consider an explicitly AI-assisted draft with your review before use?

I have prepared an original 10-string cosy-game sample in CSV and JSON. Its checks preserve keys, {player_name} placeholders, %d markers, rich-text tags and line breaks. A few original examples:

Welcome back, {player_name}! → 欢迎回来,{player_name}!

You have %d coins. → 你有 %d 枚金币。

Open <b>Garden Journal</b> → 打开<b>花园手记</b>

These are synthetic demonstration strings, not client work or translation credentials. If the workflow fits, could you confirm the word count, format, context, budget and deadline? I can assess a small paid pilot from that brief before agreeing scope or timing.
