Right. I just wanted to say that while a better translation would help considerably, I'm not so sure that getting a professional (or even amateur) translator is what you should be looking for - if you're doing this on for the sense of pride and accomplishment, just do the best you can. If you manage to gain a fanbase, someone will come along to translate it. If however you're doing this hoping to make a living - well, that would warrant a paid translator, but not many projects reach that level of income.I know it's not a bad rate, but if you count that we have 35k words just in our demo it will costs 2500$.
Now if this was one of the game we develop in our main job, that's would be fair enough but this is not the case.
We work on this project in our free time, so we cannot spent that much.
Not at the moment.
It's also worth mentioning that there are websites and communities specifically for community translation, but then the quality is correspondingly more varied. Still, you can make life easier for anyone willing to throw their hat into the ring by investing time into those.
