THE PAGE SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE
bienvenido · bienvenue · willkommen · bem-vindo · 欢迎 · ようこそ · 환영합니다 · добро пожаловать
DEADLINE's interface now speaks nine languages: English, Español, Français,
Deutsch, Português (Brasil), 简体中文, 日本語, 한국어, and Русский.
The game reads your system language on first boot and simply starts in it.
Changing your mind takes one button in Options — the page turns, and every
menu, hint, and death message comes back rewritten. Yes, the death messages:
"Corrected. In red." now stings in nine languages.
This covers the demo AND the full game at launch — level editor, multiplayer
tables, the Pen Case, all of it. A few longer texts (the chapter flipbook
captions among them) are still being polished and will land translated in an
update; until then they read in English.
One honest note from a solo dev: I wrote these translations carefully, but I
am one person and not nine native speakers. If a line in your language reads
wrong, tell me on the Discord — fixing a string takes me minutes, and I'd
genuinely rather hear about it than have it sit there bothering you.
Ink is permanent. Choose your lines carefully — in whichever language you
choose them.
