Paper Abstract:
|
This paper focus on how localization is addressed in research on game development processes. The research aim is to get
an understanding of how localization, game localization and its subsets of content and cultural issues, linguistic issues
and technical issues are addressed and discussed in game development research. This has been done through a literature
study, where 488 papers regarding game development processes have been scrutinized in order to identify game
localization related research. The results shows that localization is rarely addressed in game development research, but
regional aspects and relevant concepts related to game localization can be found. |
