English Translation Mod Within

[Okairo]

Hopefully the devs or publisher will pin this so it doesn't get lost, but for anyone interested in playing in english.

We at the AMA (Amateur Modding Avenue) are creating an English Translation of Earthling's Undertaking. We have already put an early build of the translation up on our discord for download, so that version publicly available is rough around the edges, but it will allow you to play the game and have a decent idea of what you're doing.

https://discord.gg/vpadaDhkCw - Here is the link to our discord, so you can come and download it in the appropriate section of our discord.

Edit: I have seen some posts in the forum here on steam saying that the mod is or is going to be nothing but Machine Translation because we do not have "professional translators".

First: Screw you. Second, we do have professional translators, and we even have people who are fluent in English and Chinese. All of which volunteer what free time they have to work on this mod, for free. So please, don't belittle them by saying that they don't exist, nor damage what reputation AMA has by saying that our mod is only "MTL and that's all it'll every be."

Currently, yes, it is. We wanted to push out an early version of the mod/translation so people can try the game out and not play a guessing game or hold up their phone using the google translate app.

We are going through the lines, one by one, redoing them properly, and fixing the overflowing text. (You know the texts that cover each other or leak onto sprites, etc)

So we ask for your patience as we work on the translation and do a quality job on it.

Latest Statement: The mod is currently archived on our Discord, but otherwise abandoned due to the team refusing to work on the translation and then disappearing.

It'll likely stay this way unless enough people want to form a team to work on it.

It is. We have the last version of the mod archived so people can still play the game, but the entire team working on it wouldn't finish the translation and then disappeared.

I couldn't get anyone to fill in for the team, so I had to drop the mod from our current projects.

If by some miracle people want to restart it, then work can continue on it.

AMA has made many mods, and while the translations can seem rough at times these people do very good work. Translating from Chinese to English isn't easy. Trying to get the meaning and context across in English can be challenging do to how different the languages are. Language is complex and translations are time consuming. So if there is anyone here insulting the efforts of AMA shame on you. If you have the education and talent to contribute feel free to. If you don't then do not belittle those who are putting their own time and effort in expanding the reach of a game they love to people who don't understand the language. I'm very gratefully to you AMA!

Editted the very first post with an updated discord link. https://discord.gg/vpadaDhkCw - Just in case it didn't update (better safe than sorry)

if you don't see a lot of channels, just ping a mod or myself and we'll grant you the role.
