PIXEL STARSHIPS
Android games are usually created as a distraction for our sparetime in between transport queues and similar, and while «Pixel Starships» can be regarded as another game of the type, it certainly includes many other features to consider, having become a game difficult to uninstall from devices for most of the players trying it and enjoying space games.
The gameplay here is simple, but mastering it becomes a true challenge once you get into it. You need to develop both a strong spaceship with enough weapons and defensive systems, as well as a balanced crew to empower them and to provide the boosts/tactics you need to defeat your enemies in both space and terrestrial battles. Do you feel like raw laser power is your thing? Then level up your lasers and empower them with the best weapon statistics from your crew. Perhaps invading the enemy ship while in the middle of the fight to disable their offensive and defensive capacities? No problem! Use your teleporter and crew members with high HP and Attack power so that none can stop you. The possibilities are numerous, and you will never get tired of improving/changing your strategies to adapt to the most stringent conditions. Are you ready to be a real spaceship captain?

«One of the most surprising games we have been able to localise on our journey so far. While I initially explored my skills in game localisation many years ago by translating a few sentences from this game in its crowdsourced project, it felt like a real reward to be able to see a nice work being done on a somehow disorganised attempt to create a high quality product. As time passed by, and more strings were translated, it became natural to adapt to the atmosphere of this «simple» yet highly addictive game, creating unique stories, incredible characters, delightful plot twists and many more that, up until now, continue to be a real pleasure to be part of. Moreover, at SavySoda they know how to deal with customers and other professionals, being easy and very natural to work with any of them, go through every new update and hotfix, and keep creating a product which can definitely be as enjoyable as many other games with much more technological resources. An example of things done right, no doubts.»

LOCALISATION CURIOSITIES
– As some of our other projects, this localisation task started (and still remains open as) a crowdsourced localisation project, that is, open for anyone to translate it as they please. After a few spare strings being translated, we decided to play the game and see how the localisation was performing on the game. Having noticed a few flaws, and being attracted to the game by it’s relatively simple yet engaging mechanics, we kept translating this project until we decided to ask for the proofreader status to start fixing its main issues. Nowadays, the project is in very good condition, and only recent updates remain untranslated or unfixed.
