Terminology & Style Guides Management
Converting your dialogue, UI strings, and system texts into flawless Spanish. I handle massive AAA databases with character limits or indie branching narratives with equal precision, ensuring every line flows naturally. Every project includes meticulous cross-proofreading to ensure zero linguistic errors.
Swapping words isn't enough. I adapt your game's humor, idiomatic expressions, puns, and emotional arcs so they resonate deeply with Spanish culture while preserving your original artistic intent.
Consistency is vital for complex worldbuilding. I create bespoke glossaries, manage translation keys, and craft custom style guides tailored to your game’s universe. This ensures that item names, lore terms, and character voices stay consistent across thousands of lines and future DLCs.
In-Build LQA & Testing Across Platforms
I don't just translate text in a vacuum; I test it in action. By performing Linguistic Quality Assurance directly in-game, I catch and fix text clipping, overlapping UI elements, context mismatches, and embarrassing text bugs before your players do.

Initial Briefing
Assessment
Asset Preparation
We kick off by discussing your game’s universe, target audience, mechanics, and specific technical requirements.
I analyse your script files, variables, and UI constraints to provide an accurate timeline and a clear, transparent quote.
Before translating a single word, I set up the technical pipeline—integrating your files into industry-standard tools (MemoQ, Trados, SmartCat, Phrase) or your custom proprietary dashboard

Delivery & Support
The heavy lifting. I translate and transcreate your text, ensuring absolute code precision so that your tags and variables remain entirely untouched and safe from breaking.
Once the localised text is integrated into your build, I step in as a player. I test the UI layout, check the dialogue context under real playing conditions, and patch any text clipping or styling bugs.
You receive clean, game-ready localised files that blend seamlessly into your engine. Furthermore, I remain available for post-launch support, title updates, patches, or unexpected DLC text.
Secure Your Spanish Launch Strategy
Don't treat localisation as an afterthought. Partner with a veteran translator who knows how to seamlessly integrate into your development workflow.
