[2020] Possible to make Polish translation for the game?

Thank you very much for the offer! But it’s not that simple to take on a volunteer translator

It’s unethical to take a volunteer on to do what is normally a paid position as well as a legal risk.

Volunteers typically aren’t obligated to perform duties - you would be as a translator. There would be deadlines, you’d be sent the work required and we’d need to be able to send you feedback to review it and have you do so.

Even if you do this work for free and we all call you a “volunteer”, legally you may be considered an employee - which means if we haven’t been paying you the appropriate award rate then we would be open to legal action.

Ultimately, we would love to add more language support for Gems of War in the future, and when/if we do we will be hiring a translator. We usually advertise these positions here on the forum so we can have someone who plays our game work for us that way they will understand the terms used and more of the context of the strings we send them

We choose to have beta testers who choose to opt in and even if we give them access to the beta server, they’re under no obligation to ever download or play it, and even if they do play it, they’re under no obligation to provide feedback or report bugs.

It’s a nice way for us to give some players a sneak peak at upcoming updates, a little more insight into the development process and get some player feedback before the update goes live.

We have paid QA testers for the actual bug testing - that’s not what beta testers are for, although we’re obviously grateful for any and all contributions the beta testers make to help us make a great game. Beta testing isn’t a full time position being taken away from any past, present or potential employees.
