Project for LocJam 6, a video game translation contest. The game was Not Enough Time, a point & click comedy/adventure game. The text was very challenging, with a lot of references, wordplays, and jokes. I participated with The word eaters, a group with two other translators: Bruna Beatriz Gabriel and Leticia Scarabelli.

The original version, in English, is available here. Our translated version, in Brazilian Portuguese, is available here.

The word count was 3,322, but we also had to work on every step of the project (in only 4 days), including proofreading, editing images, implementing the translation, and testing the game. In the end, according to the contest metrics, our translation was ranked 33rd place, among 244 entries from all languages, and we were rated 2nd place, among 22 entries in Brazilian Portuguese.
