Jndion -> Are you going to support multi-language? (8/4/2014 12:06:11 PM) So that we can help translate some texts.

Jndion -> RE: Are you going to support multi-language? (8/12/2014 7:15:19 AM) The XNA font formatting system does not support foreign words well. Main game fonts are fine, but the yellow tips are not showing when using non-alphabetical words (exhibits "***"). I hope you are going to solve this problem, there are many games on Steam that support multi-languages and sells well in other countries.

Erik Rutins -> RE: Are you going to support multi-language? (8/12/2014 2:33:09 PM) Actually there are already German and French versions. It is possible to translate DWU as it is right now. What language are you looking for?

Jndion -> RE: Are you going to support multi-language? (8/12/2014 4:28:48 PM) Thanks for your reply. Great to hear that foreign versions are coming! I'd like to know whether you are working on a Chinese version. It is possible to translate, true, but there are two problems: 1. In game yellow fonts failed to render, they become "***" for Chinese (and several other orient languages that I tested) characters. 2. Main game font is too large for Chinese words, this is a general problem when replacing English words with Chinese words. The second problem is self-solving if you can externalize (make them costomizable) font size and color settings (which also solves the problem of some players complaining too small English words). Sorry that I cannot post Pics right now.
