Overview:
Voltage, Inc. is looking to expand its lineup of translated games and is in need of Japanese to English translators who have experience translating scripts for video games. Voltage is a pioneer in the field of romance simulation apps for a female audience in Japan and continues to lead the industry.
Translators will be provided with scripts from Voltage’s “Koi-game” series and will translate these into English. Emphasis will be on creating a script that will appeal to English-speaking users rather than creating a direct translation of the original script. Scripts should be translated into American English rather than British English.
Responsibilities/Possible Assignments:
- Main Story: 17 chapters per character.
- Epilogue: 3 chapters per character.
- Sequel: 10 chapters per character.
- Spin off: Varies between games.
There are about 5000 characters per script and there will be about 200,000 to 250,000 characters to translate each month.
Application:
Salary: 3 Cents per character.
