Localization & QA, Art, Narrative Design, Localization Setup, and Voiceover.
Outsourcing in the game industry is the transferring of some tasks in the game development process to other companies. For many years, INLINGO has been engaged in outsourcing services such as localization, art creation, narrative design, and voiceover. We would like to share how the outsourcing process works, what helps our team retain a consistently high level of quality, and why you can trust us with your tasks.
Outsourcing in game development is the assignment of some parts of the work on a game to third-party contractors. This allows the developers to concentrate on the key aspects of their game.
Tasks that are regularly outsourced:
Major studios often outsource significant parts of a game, or even the whole project. Smaller studios assign specific tasks. Outsourcing allows you to reduce the costs of creating a game.
Game art is the visual designing of computer and video games. It includes:
We calculate the budget based on the specific services, tasks, and features of your project.
Tell us about your task and we will prepare a detailed estimate, as well as helping you compile project specifications.
We translate and adapt projects for new markets. Our team takes all factors into account, helping to retain the style of the text, adapt the humor, and respect the cultural norms of each country. We work with interfaces, dialogue, item descriptions, marketing materials, etc., ensuring the entire gaming process can be enjoyed smoothly. Furthermore, we can provide recommendations for the production and adaptation of your project’s visual elements.
We check the quality of your project’s localization to ensure that players aren’t distracted by errors and can simply enjoy your game. We identify bugs that can influence their impression of the game. The range of services offered by Inlingo studio includes linguistic and cosmetic testing. We help you assess the style, spelling, punctuation, and naturalness of the text, and also ensure that all text in the game fits with the interface. The result of our work is a detailed bug report. On the basis of our report, the developer can quickly introduce corrections to the game.
We create characters in 2D and 3D, and provide design of environments, icons, and much more. You can come to us with a fully developed vision of your project, specific references, and strictly limited assignments, or ask us to develop all visual aspects of your game from scratch. If necessary, our team will help you assemble references, compile a style guide, and establish a smooth pipeline for work.
We come up with a narrative for your project, developing an entertaining story that will help your players immerse themselves in a new virtual world. Our team will invent the core lore of your game, create interesting plot lines, or write quests and in-game dialogues. We can undertake work on the whole project or on specific aspects, such as item descriptions.
We will give your characters a voice that accentuates their personality. We work with both adult and child voices. Before selecting voiceover artists, we gather extensive information about the characters, get approval of the script, and compile an estimate. If necessary, we can arrange personal interviews with the actors before production to ensure that the result of dubbing conforms exactly to your vision of the project.
