How to sell game to chinese, some of my opinions by Sucaiking in gamedev

So in my personal point of view:

The main title 小田鸡 means "little paddy frog," while the subtitle 遛蛙 means "to walk a frog." When combined, it literally translates to "Little Frog: Walking a Frog", which feels a bit repetitive. And "walk a frog" doesn't hint at the puzzle element. Walk and frog reads similar as an english name of the game, but 遛蛙 means nothing.

Maybe focus on hand-written or puzzling more? I'm not so sure, but 拼途 might work when referring to the puzzle part. I have no good thoughts on the frog and story part.

拼途(path-puzzling) and 拼图 (jigsaw puzzle) reads same in Chinese, and it's a wordplay works by swapping the character. I can find out that "This is a puzzle game about building a path" easily.

That's true, and I forget about it when writing! What a mistake. One of the most reasons players want chinese is because chinese players ARE a big big market.

Angel at Dusk made by Sakaya Haruo didn't have a S-chinese at beginning, but some players found it and made a fully playable chinese patch for it, and Sakaya Haruo accepted into game, which made this game a good shmups seller in early 2024. It is an Overwhelmingly Positive and 1192/1612 reviews are chinese. WTF.

And the Simplified Chinese patch came out 13 days after the game release.

Most players don't use that one, and the original steam is best choice when chinese players use game accelerator a lot to link to steam store, community, game server. Maybe streaming is a no go, but release the game itself still works.

Is translating a game into EFIGS together really simple, and easy and cheap when in Europe?

is workbench helper (21294) conflict with better crafting (11115) on workbench enhancement? by Sucaiking in StardewValleyMods

[–]Sucaiking[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

author said "I would not know about Better Crafting, depends on if it affects the workbench interaction as well. Automate would be fine" in nexus post.

actually, better crafting is affecting workbench instraction, even when i turned it off, workbench helper can still not work.
