Localization implementation! - Gnorp Gnews #16

(the) Gnorp Apologue

(the) Gnorp Apologue is the journey of the gnorps as you guide them towards their goal of delightfully excessive wealth accumulation.

Hello everyone! I hope you are having a great summer (or winter). It's been a while coming: (the) Gnorp Apologue has finally been localized! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44722791/19b0797429322059cb4ef50f27f79c64fe14f122.png[/img] I've been working with a company called IndieArk to bring this to life, and I'm very happy with to see the game translated. Besides English, the game is now available in the following languages: [list] [*] Simplified Chinese [*] Japanese [*] French [*] German [*] Brazilian Portuguese [*] Spanish [/list] The game will attempt to detect your Steam UI language (or your system language if running without Steam), and if it matches one of the supported languages, it will switch to that language. You may also manually select one of the available languages. Fun-fact about the Simplified Chinese translation of the game: (the) Gnorp Apologue is translated to 糯米团子历代记, which roughly means "The Chronicles of Glutinous Rice Dumplings", or perhaps "The Mochi Chronicles". I think it's a great translation. If you haven't had glutinous rice dumplings or mochi, they're foods you absolutely ought to try! Thanks to all who requested localization support, and thanks to IndieArk for the localization! Now that the game supports additional languages, I may implement more of them based on demand. In other news— work continues on several gnorp projects (including hats, of course!), and I am very excited to share more with you soon.
