Hi Britney,
a little questions: Do you plan to translate Al Emmo?
To be honest, I would never play a fun adventure game (like Al Emmo, the Larry or SQ series) in German (my mother tongue) because there is an extremely high danger that those great games lose their pun (which they are living from...) when translated.
There is also the difficulty of the various dialects in the German speaking world...
So far I remember only one adventure game that did not suffer from its translation (Monkey Island 3 - because I did not manage to get an english version... In earlier adventure days this could not happen. Cause the games simply were not translated at all).
So, will you do it?
