proofreading/editing help needed [filled]

#1 Post by jack_norton »

I'm basically done with my current game Spirited Heart, but I already started another one, a sci-fi story called Bionic Heart (I'm too lazy to link but you can find more info about it in this forum).
I started writing it in italian to have it translated, but I think I probably would get a better result if someone just edit my texts once I have rewritten them in english. I can write in "decent" english but I'd need someone to recheck the texts for errors and "enrich" them, since I don't know many english words (to avoid the story/narration become too much repetitive).
So far the script is about 8k words, so I'm still far to finish it, but if someone could check/edit what I've done so far in the meanwhile would be great :oops:

edit: seems like I found someone already. thanks! :)

Wow! Sounds tough...
I would offer to help, but, unfortunately, I don't really think I've got the English editing expertise that might be required to assist you.
After all, I'm rather young.

Still, I wish you luck! I had a look at the game demo, and it looks fabulous so far!

I'd reccommend renaming the topic name to something like "proofreaders needed", since that is what you are actually looking for. I'd help, but I am not native speaker as well and I am already TLing, but I hope I might be of some help in case that some people were driven away just by the name of the thread ^^ (since I expected fairly different thing from "editing help")
Currently working on: Identityless
HOW DO I INPUT THIS GODDAMN THING I WANT IN MY GAME TO IT?
WHY ARE THE CHARACTER ARTISTS SO LAZY?
