Isometric party-based cRPG Black Geyser continues its hard work regarding localization. In the latest update the game introduced Italian translation that joins German, French, Spanish and others.
“In March, we informed the community about serious issues regarding the current and future operation of the Black Geyser team. We are still working on these issues and will come to a final conclusion in August that we will share with you immediately. Thank you for your patience.”
Previously, the team had provided an explanation as to why some localizations have taken longer than others. The game has more than 280,000 words of text, which is an extreme amount for an indie title. Translating this many words is usually very expensive, and takes a very long time for an affordable translator.
In addition to the new localization option, the game also received a number of changes that you can find below.
