Decided to go back to the unfinished #vulkan renderer in my engine. If I'm not back in a week send help. #indieDev #gameDev

🧵 2/2 If you didn't enjoy the game we'd still love to hear from you, as long as you can provide constructive criticism. And if you haven't played the game yet, you can find it here: https://apicici.itch.io/the-founders-of-redacted #foundersOfRedacted #indiedev #gamedev

The founders of [redacted] released two weeks ago! According to the @npub1lu8k...v9tm analytics quite a few people have played it. Now, numbers and graphs are nice an everything, but I have no idea if people actually liked the game! If you have played it and enjoyed it, we would love to hear from you! It doesn't matter how you reach out—we're not trying to drive any algorithm, we just want to know your opinion 😊 🧵 1/2 #foundersOfRedacted #indiedev #gamedev

🇮🇹 The #Italian translation of "The founders of [redacted]" is ready! Good thing I thoroughly tested it, I had introduced a couple of nasty game-crashing bugs in the process of getting the game ready to load translations! ------- 🇮🇹 La traduzione italiana di "Le fondatrici di [redatto]" è pronta! Meno male che l'ho testata a fondo, avevo introdotto alcuni bug rompi-gioco nel processo di aggiungere al gioco la capacità di caricare le traduzioni! https://apicici.itch.io/the-founders-of-redacted #gameDev #indieDev

Finished translating all the lines, added the button in the menu to change languages... and then I remembered that I also have a bunch of images to translate 😩

#Translation update: I just translated a pun-based joke that couldn't be translated literally into a pun-based joke in the target language that captures EXACTLY the essence of the original. In took me three day to come up with it. I'm very proud of myself. (I'm the one who wrote the original pun, I did this to myself) #foundersOfRedacted #indieDev #gameDev

Working on the #Italian #translation of "The founders of [redacted]"! Current status: 796 translated lines, 958 to go. For comparison, the previous games in the series had respectively 215, 155, and 645 lines of text. This game has almost twice the amount of text of all the previous games put together! Go play it and experience the beautifully crafted text first-hand! It's free! https://apicici.itch.io/the-founders-of-redacted #foundersOfRedacted #gameDev #indieDev

It's #sourcecodeSunday! I started working on the Italian translation of "The founders of [redacted]". Here is the code that loads the translations, which I just rewrote this morning to use TSV files instead of Lua files to store them. A decision I regret a bit, since I just spent over an hour fixing the unspeakable things that spreadsheet programs insist on doing to the poor double quotes in my strings. Oh well. #foundersOfRedacted #indieDev #gameDev

I never specified what platforms "The founders of [redacted]" works on! As a #Linux user myself I'd like mention that the game is fully supported on Linux. In fact, it is developed on Linux, and it's the platform that get the most testing. Take that, platforms with higher market share! We also support Windows and macOS, and phones/tablets through the web version (all platforms have touch support). https://apicici.itch.io/the-founders-of-redacted 1/2 #foundersOfRedacted #indieDev #gameDev
