Hi there.
This is a super quick video to let you know that you can now, once again, contribute translated
captions to GMTK videos!
YouTube recently removed the ability for fans to translate videos on the platform - but,
I now have a system in place to make it work once again.
So, here’s how to do it…
At the bottom of the description for every video on this channel, there’s a link to
the video’s page on Amara - a free community captioning website.
On Amara, you'll need to make an account, but can then click on "Add/Edit subtitles",
then pick the language you wish to contribute on the drop down.
You'll then see the English captions on the left, and can provide a translated version
in the box on the right.
When it's all done, click "Yes, start syncing".
I will then receive a notification and can add the subtitles to the video back on YouTube,
and credit you with your Amara name in the description.
I'll try to do it quickly on newly released videos, but will only be able to update captions
about once a month on older stuff.
To be crystal clear, all captions are provided voluntarily.
And I'm not asking anyone to do this - but I will accept them if they wish to contribute.
I want to thank everyone who has already translated GMTK into: French, Italian, Korean, Turkish,
Japanese, Spanish, and many, many, more languages.
You're helping democratise game design knowledge by making it free and super accessible.
So, thanks - and I'll see you again soon.
