Who's behind all this?
Pro Video Game Localization
IVAN ESPINOSA
Localization Specialist, Gamer
Founder & Lead Localization Specialist
Specialized Tools for Every Localization Workflow
Software I use: memoQ for RPGs, Visual Novels, or Narrative-Heavy games — Phrase for Mobile Games, Gacha, MMO, or Live-Ops games — Slack for seamless translator-client communication — Trello for project management and organization.
Your narrative deserves a translator who is also a writer
Machine translation moves words. A literary writer moves meaning.
I understand both worlds and how to bridge them
Born and raised in Latin America. Established in the US corporate system. Fluent in both cultures, not just both languages.
Precision trained under zero-error conditions
Trained as a professional interpreter for US healthcare systems and legal translation for paralegal teams, where mistranslation has legal consequences. That standard of precision transfers directly to your project.

what i offer
The full service suite
Project Management
Localization has moving parts: file formats, revision rounds, timelines, and back-and-forth that can slow a release down. I handle all of it, start to finish, so you never have to chase a translator or wonder where your project stands.
Translation and Localization
Every line of dialogue, every item description, every story beat; adapted for Latin American Spanish players with the cultural fluency and literary precision your narrative deserves. Not just translated. Localized.
Linguistic QA
I play through your game in Spanish before your players do, catching text overflow, consistency errors, and anything that breaks immersion. The goal is simple: no player should ever spot a mistake. I also offer MTPE for indie developers utilizing AI pipelines.
Glossary and Style Guide Creation
Before a single line is translated, I build the terminology and voice guidelines that keep your entire Spanish version consistent: character names, item names, tone, register, and dialect decisions all in one living document.
Localization Consulting
The best time to think about localization is before you build. I work with developers early in production to design text systems, UI space, and cultural elements that won't cause headaches when it's time to go multilingual.
SEO and ASO
Your Spanish store page is more than a translation, it's how Latin American players find you. I optimize your Steam description, App Store listing, and Google Play page for the keywords your audience actually searches.

WhY SPANISH FOR GAMES?
Passion for Indie Games
Spanish for Games was built on a simple conviction: Spanish-speaking players deserve more than a translation, they deserve a game that feels made for them.
After years working as a legal and medical interpreter for US healthcare systems, and later as a translator for paralegal teams, I developed something most localization agencies can't offer: an instinct for precision trained under real consequences, combined with a deep understanding of how language actually moves between cultures and not just between dictionaries.
When I discovered game localization, it brought everything together. The technical discipline of professional language services.
Spanish for Games is the result. I'm here to help you reach Latin American players not just in their language, but in their world, with the cultural resonance and narrative precision your game deserves.
