A new demo is out from the team at Enchanted Works: Nomori. LocQuest has taken care of the localization.

Nomori is a mind-bending adventure game where you control time and space to journey through a whimsical spirit world. Take shortcuts through portals, rotate your perspective, and control the flow of time to solve puzzles that are out of this world. LocQuest localized the game into German, Spanish (Spain), French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese (Simplified), and Chinese (Traditional)

A quote from Marnix Licht, Co-founder and CEO: “We really enjoyed working with LocQuest. Their team was incredibly approachable, and the collaboration felt smooth and supportive throughout. Besides amazing localization they provided us with great feedback and questions regarding our games narrative which helped improve our dialogue. It genuinely felt like they were invested in our project’s success, and their responsiveness and willingness to help made a real difference.”

Hope this is what @on-together.bsky.social and @futurefriendsgames.com had in mind when they launched 😅

Here’s a handful of our talented localizers, taking a class picture together 📸
(Very important work)

Remote work is far from lonely.
And we're happy that we can give our folks a space to hang 🤗

Solo-dev Gagonfe has launched their newest project, Rocket Rats, with the help of LocQuest for localization.

Rocket Rats is a survivors-like game where you defeat cheese-based astral bodies in space – as a rat! LocQuest localized the game into German, Spanish (Spain), Japanese, Korean, Polish, and Russian.

A quote from Gagonfe, developer: “You guys are so fucking cool! It's awesome to know you approach your work lighthearted and in a fun way. I was honestly tired from people reaching out to me offering their localization services and mentioning AI as a big selling point like "we use AI to bring quality to our work”

🚀🐀 It’s a rat race!

This one sure had us cheesin’. 😊

LocQuest worked with solo dev Gagonfe to localize Rocket Rats into 6 languages.

We’ve been smelling some rats in gaming recently. Luckily, there are still devs out there that care about fair, ethical localization. 🛡️

Solo-dev Anaïs Salla has launched Nom Nom: Cozy Forest Café, with LocQuest taking care of the localization.

Nom Nom: Cozy Forest Café is now LIVE, localized into three languages by the folks here at LocQuest. LocQuest localized the game into French, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese.

A quote from Anaïs Salla, developer of Nom Nom: Cozy Forest Café: “After seeing LocQuest's localization work on games I played and enjoyed, I knew I wanted to work with them. They were very easy to work with and did a wonderful job on my game. I highly recommend LocQuest and hope to collaborate with them on future projects.”

Kudos to our stellar LatAm Spanish team ❤️ and their incredible job on the localization of the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney trilogy🔥

Today is Universal Children Day, and for the occasion our game Wednesdays is 100% free on Steam and Itch. io.
If you haven't heard about it, know that it deals with very sensitive topics (namely child sexual abuse), but hopefully does it in a caring way.
