Contributing Hive Projects: Translating Moon 🚀

I mentioned earlier that I enjoy contributing to projects on Hive, but I would like to share something about the most recent project I have contributed to beside of curation. A few days ago, I shared something with you about @hivetrending and Pizza Team's new project, Moon.

I translated almost every word of this game into Turkish. I left out some unnecessary parts and parts that don't affect the gameplay experience at all, but I can say that I translated the home page and everything you can see in the game. This was a bit of a challenging task, and I don’t know exactly how many lines or words I translated, but as I said, I enjoy contributing to projects on Hive. By the way, I didn’t start the translation from scratch. There was already a translation, but it wasn’t good enough. There are many letters in Turkish that don't exist in English (İ, Ü, Ğ, Ç, Ö, Ş). There are also English letters that don't exist in Turkish (X and Q). I localized all these letters and words. Some words were translated incorrectly, so I corrected their translations. Why did I do this?

I'm sure there are very few Turkish players playing this game on Hive right now. Maybe there aren't even 10 people. However, this game has a lot of potential for growth in the future. Who knows, maybe dozens of Turkish players could play this game. And when they discover this game, encountering a proper translation will make them show more respect and interest in the project. As a result, if they choose to join Hive, that would be great for us. One person is one person. There is a lot of interest in cryptocurrencies, especially altcoins, in Turkey. Even though people are into memecoins these days, I think they will eventually show interest in cryptocurrencies like Hive.

Additionally, this has naturally increased my interest in the game. I wouldn't want to play a poorly translated game, but I can say that I really enjoy playing a game that has been translated better and by me. I would like to play a role in translating more projects in the future. I used to do this for Ecency, but I had to take a break due to my busy work schedule. Maybe I'll go back to it.

Finally, I would like to thank @hivetrending for honoring me by giving me credit on the project's GitHub page. I also won a large amount of Pizza tokens as a reward for my translations. I wasn't expecting that, it was a nice surprise. You can also contribute to the project by translating into your own language. You can access the game's GitHub page here. Plus, as I mentioned earlier, your own gaming experience will improve as well.

Thank you very much for reading. Don't forget to share your thoughts with me in the comments. See you in more projects!
