- Portuguese Localization! - 26 August 2025
I'm excited to announce Splody's Brazilian translation is now 100% complete, thanks to the amazing effort of community member gymmer! If you find any errors, please drop us a note in the Splody forums. News from Dashing Strike I apologize for being quiet on the Steam front in recent years. I've spent the last few years working on a web game (was popular, but was recently shut down). Though it was a great opportunity, I'm excited to be returning to focusing on Steam releases for a while! On that note, we've got a new little game out this week, QuantumPulse 2A, which is a "Zach-like" programming puzzle game. If that might be the kind of thing you're interested in, please check it out! Cheers, Jimbly https://store.steampowered.com/app/3175190/QuantumPulse_2A/

- Splody Update 9 - Community Localization - 27 August 2021
The latest update to Splody has support for localization now enabled by default. Through some valiant work by volunteer translators, we've got partial translations into Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, and Chinese, but we're not done yet! We need your help to finish these translations as well as potentially translate into more languages. To try this out, when you next launch Splody, simply choose Languages from the main menu and pick your language. Have any feedback about the localization? Things not looking right on some screen? Want to help translate more text into these, or a new language? Drop by the Splody Discussions and lend a hand!
- Splody Update 8 - International Font Support - 14 December 2018
As always, all of details on the most recent changes can always be found in the ChangeLog. A step towards internationalization This update adds international support to the font and to chat (through IME). Now you should be able to see the names of our Japanese friends who have been playing quite a bit of Splody recently! This also opens the possibility of doing localization in a future update. Do you want to see Splody in your language? Contact me via [email protected] if you would be interested in helping with the translation of Splody - there's not much text at all, mostly just the menus, so it wouldn't be much work. There have been a few other little features and fixes since the last major update, here are the interesting ones: Major Features and Fixes Font support for most international (European and Asian) characters Add IME support for entering these characters into chat/edit…
