Today we’re adding localisations for Bulgarian, Estonian, Turkish, Ukrainian, Slovak and Icelandic

As with the previous patch, we’ve used AI based tools, they may contain mistranslations, but we still believe that it is something that might help you dive into the game. As with the previous experimental implementation, let us know if these are to your liking!

To make sure we don't miss any of your voices, we are keeping a separate channel on our Discord, Elderborn-Localisations. There we encourage you to share your thoughts and any mistranslations that you come across. As in the previous update, we vow to fix all the things that you bring to us.

You can find the dedicated discord channel here: https://discord.gg/hyperstrange-494562943204327435

Let’s also quickly reiterate on what was already said previously regarding some questions:

Q: Why aren't we using professional translators?
A: We actively work with many translators. ELDERBORN's budget didn't account for other translations.

Q: Are we planning to replace our translators with AI tools?
A: Absolutely not. Using these tools is to aid in these cases where our resources are limited.


Everyone celebrates Christmas their own way: some find joy in baking pies... and smashing heads of anyone who disturbs their holiday spirit. Others care for their holiday tree like it’s sacred, keeping it perfectly watered. There are those who take this time to settle personal scores… umm, I mean, misunderstandings - laying all their cards on the table so they can enjoy a grudge-free holiday.

Our job? Making sure that there are proper presents! So come join us under our Hyperstrange Tree - it might be a little early, a little blood-soaked, and a lot chaotic, but the wicked gifts are already there, waiting for you.

We named this event The Hyperstrange's Massacre Before Christmas and it’s ready to deliver gifts of death-n-glory and gore-packed fun! Allow us to invite you to ZlimBratSki’s stream, where he’ll explain everything!

• All the gritty details about the upcoming Blood West: Dead Man's Promise DLC. Who, what, where, whom, why, and who asked for it. And most importantly: WHEN??
  
• A deep dive into character progression and skills in our new survivorslike, Hordes of Hunger. Learn how to combine abilities and perks that work together to create powerful builds using and prepare yourself for battles against the Horde.
  
• A sack full of trailers and updates on our other games, and maybe even a hint about some sneaky, but generous giveaways.

Today we’re adding localisations for Swedish, Finnish, Brazilian Norwegian, Dutch, Danish and Czech.

As a side note, really… really… long time ago, in another galaxy, we promised to bring ELDERBORN to consoles. While it took us way too long to do so, today we can happily announce that you can flex your barbaric muscles on a gamepad of your choice. Enjoy!

Last year we announced Hordes of Hunger, our own spin on the survivorslike genre. Today, we are happy to share with you the very first public playable demo of Hordes of Hunger and of course we wouldn’t be ourselves, if we did not put a bit of strangeness into the original formula.

• Two hauntingly beautiful maps, each overrun by the Beast’s minions and guarded by a horrific boss.
  
• Dynamic combat system that blends the traditional survivorslike scale with arena-slasher's visceral action.
  
• Over 6 side-stories and tasks to undertake. Will you save the few last remaining citizens or focus on gathering supplies from the abandoned city - the choice and consequences are yours.
  
• Sprawling hub to which you will triumphantly return with each victor or be dragged to with each defeat. In this safe space various NPC reside, ready to help you prepare for the next battle and share their thoughts.
  
• 10 servants of the Beats to slay or be slain by. Each with their own strengths and weaknesses to exploit. Such as the immense strength and uncontrolled rage of the Teeth Golem which often makes it as deadly to you as to everything close to it.
  
• Two weapons and weapons arts to master. Hew and cut through with the grace of the blade or crush down all opposition the brute force the hammer.
  
• Create your own build from 5 distinct skill trees and over 30 unique skills. Ignite a fire aura, charge up a lighting storm or summon aid to the battlefield.
  
• Get a taste of the depth of the between run progress system.

Gather round, mighty barbarians!

We’re roaring with excitement that ELDERBORN is still surrounded by such a loyal horde, and that you keep returning to our savage Heavy Metal slasher. From this point, we’d also like to give a loud, thunderous welcome to all the new fearless warriors, eager to become merciless slayers and venture into this brutal world to crush skulls and carve their place in history as badass legends.

But let’s put down our spears and hammers for a sec, because we’ve got some news for you today.

We've been hearing your requests to add new languages to ELDERBORN for a while now.
Ever since they first came in, we’ve been wanting to meet those expectations and make sure players who speak these languages can fully immerse themselves in the game.
However, there are some limitations. Some of you suggested that we try using AI tools to bring in these translations, even if just temporarily. After much deliberation, we decided to give this a try, and that’s why we’ve decided to go with this experimental solution.

Today we’re adding localisations for Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, and Korean.
As we’ve used AI based tools, they may contain mistranslations, yet we trust it’s still something that might help you dive into the game. This is why we're treating this as an experimental implementation, and we're counting on your feedback in this matter.

To make sure we don't miss any of your voices, we've prepared a separate channel on our Discord, Elderborn-Localisations, where we'd love to hear your thoughts on this solution and whether the translations are helpful for you. Feel free to let us know if anything seems off, so we can fix it.

Here’s the direct link: https://discord.gg/5MhMjcuT


Several expected questions we can address right away:

Q: Why aren't we using professional translators?
A: We actively work with many translators. ELDERBORN's budget didn't account for other translations.

Q: Are we planning to replace our translators with AI tools?
A: Absolutely not. Using these tools is to aid in these cases where our resources are limited.



We appreciate your feedback to the specified Discord channel so we can make sure everyone’s heard.

Space, the final frontier, a place devoid of the tight-ass bureaucracy. A place where a man can cruise in their Fiat 126p, lick batteries, and be a self-made cosmonaut! Unless you get raided by pirates, poisoned by a hot-dog from an unlicensed food-shuttle or scammed by Kovalsky at the spaceship dealer.

CosmoPirates takes card battling, deck building to the final frontier of cartoonish comedy. Pimp-out your ride, gather your crew, and take out the cringeworthy overlord. Be wary tho, for there always must be a Cringe lord - and on your journey you might just become one.

There are some things that simply go great together although you wouldn’t think so: potatoes and pizza, mayo and ketchup or Zombies and Golf! That’s right! There is nothing more riveting than trying to land a perfect birdie with a horde of the ravenous undead breathing down your neck.

If you are in for even more Hyperstrangeness, then embark in 77p egg: Eggwife on a quest whose crude, gory, toilet-humor can only be rivaled by games such as Postal 2, Duke 3D, or Goat Simulator.

Does this masterpiece have a story? Yes, and a relatable one at that. Building a stable relationship isn’t that easy and our protagonist will need your help on his quest to find a new wife!

Unless he gets lost in the grocery aisle again.

Let’s step down from the joyful sensory overload of the above mentioned games to something a little bit different. Something less strange and definitely more hyper.

In Empty Shell, a top-down roguelite survival horror, you will get thrown into a secret facility on a Japanese island. Having signed a contract which stated only one condition “recover the designated target”, you will soon learn why it is so important to read the fine print.

During each run, you will try to get the “volunteer” through the facility while dealing with limited visibility, dwindling supplies and whatever is out there, stalking and hunting you throughout the randomized maze of tight-corridors.

If you are peckish and looking for something more crunchy to stimulate your strategic mind, then look no further than Spirit of Liberty, a hardcore, turn-based, historically accurate strategy game set in WWII.

Master the intricacies of the game’s systems to keep your units supplied and armed with the best equipment and dismantle enemy forces through combined-arms tactics and help from your cabinet of generals.
