The basics...
Project Details:
GDevelop is the desktop version of the GDevelop Website I completed some days earlier. After having worked on the Website translation, I felt it right to go on and translate the program as well.
According to its official website:
"GDevelop is an open-source, cross-platform game creator designed to be used by everyone - no programming skills required."
Let your creativity run wild and create any type of game you wish!
The tools?
Plenty!
Use the revolutionary tool of "events" and create games from scratch without any special programming knowledge. You can publish your work to the web, iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux and even Facebook Messenger; and if you are using the app, you can easily export your game to Android.
Tutorials and guides are available to help you make your first steps, and for the more advanced users, some Javascript will surely send your game to the moon... and further!
You can either make your games online or download the program on your computer and... let the game begin!

Why this project?
After completing Mura CMS, the open-source content management system, I had to go through the whitelisted projects again and find myself another piece that would not only be suitable for my skills, but also close to my interests. GDevelop seemed like a fun project with lots of potential and benefits to offer, so I spared no second thoughts and started translating it into my native language.
I am a creative person myself, therefore a project that "feeds" on people's creativity and offers chances to promote it and have fun, while sharing the final results with so many other users, seemed like something I'd like to help and spread the word about. The fact that games created with GDevelop are compatible with almost any platform, raises the chances of it being adopted by new users more easily. Don't forget that it's like a "game creator for dummies", armed with guides and tutorials to help the average user who wants to experiment and create their own game to share with their friends and why not... the rest of the world!
For all the above reasons, I would like to see more Greek speaking users try this game creator out, and this is why I am translating the project into Greek.
Contribution Specifications
Translation Overview:
The original text contains 25,312 words to translate, a number quite big. This project will be completed in at least 18 parts.
When I first started working on the GDevelop project, some strings were already translated and approved. My job is to read those again and make sure they are correct and follow the wording and writing style I use throughout the project. If I come across bad translations, I will of course fix them.
In terms of difficulty, this project seems a bit harder in some parts, but I worry not as my guardian angel... ehm, guardian LM I meant, will be on the watch and give a helping hand when things get messy... Gaming (as if I didn't see that coming) and developing terms raise the bar of difficulty in various parts, not only because I need to understand their exact function in the program, but also because there is not a complete word bank in the Greek language and the English terms are preferred most of the time.
Languages:
The original text is all written in English and it is my task to translate it in Greek (my mother tongue).

The current session...
It's been a month since my last contribution post. November found me moving houses and I ended up having very little free time and energy, so I had to pause my translating activity -although I never stopped proofreading and reviewing contributions. Since things are getting settled with my new house, I can slowly try to get back to my own rhythms and get back on my half-finished project.
A lot of things have changed within this month, we have a new questionnaire regarding Translation scoring and in general, there has been great effort and discussion towards making the Translations category healthier and more efficient.
Activity Overview:
Part 11 was hard to finish, being inactive for a month, it took me a while to get back on track, remember how everything is supposed to be worded. I had to revisit a lot of past strings to make sure I kept the same writing style. Honestly, I felt a little numb at first, but as the strings were passing before my eyes, I got used to translating again.
In this part I had to deal mostly with tiled sprites. A sprite is basically an image and a tiled sprite helps you "display an image in a tiled set" making it as big or small as you wish.
In this part I had to be careful about the correct place of the untranslated variables again (due to the differences between the Greek and the English syntax) and decide which terms would be translated or left in English (of course I asked
Take a look at some strings of part 11:
"Tiled Sprite Object" ="Αντικείμενο Tiled Sprite"
What this option does is:
"This Extension enables the use of Tiled Sprite Objects." = "Αυτή η Επέκταση σας επιτρέπει να χρησιμοποιείτε Αντικείμενα Tiled Sprite."
In this part of the program you can change the:
"Settings of the Tiled Sprite Object" = "Ρυθμίσεις του Αντικειμένου Tiled Sprite"
For example:
"Test the width of a Tile Map Object." = "Δοκιμή του πλάτους ενός Αντικειμένου Tile Map."
Or:
"Test the height of a Tile Map Object." = "Δοκιμή του ύψους ενός Αντικειμένου Tile Map."
Word Count:
According to Crowdin's word count tool, in this session I translated 1313 words. After subtracting a rough 6% for:
a) variables like "PARAM0",
b) untranslated words that were mainly designing terms like "tiled sprite and "tileset" (that would make the Greek text "awful" if translated), and
c) very few duplicate strings,
I can say that I have translated about 1234 words.
Note: The previous part was about 1134 words.

TL;DR
After a month of translating inactivity, I got back to work and I just finished the 11th part of the GDevelop desktop project. GDevelop is a game creating software. In this part I worked on strings concerning mostly "tiled sprite objects". I checked past strings to make sure my writing style won't be different in this part and I asked
