Board Game Arena

My game appears as "snowtime_displayed"... how can I change it?

You can't until it got released.

Actually, the developer has access to the translation system (even in alpha), and can change the game name there. It's then updated like other translations on a daily basis.

Woah ! Mind blown !
I really thought it was better not to use the translation system until the game is ready for release but I guess for that kind of thing it's ok ?

What shall I put as string to translate?

Why I have "snowtime_displayed" as name, even if the game name is snowtime?

I went to English translation.

I already have "snowtime_displayed" => "Snow Time".

Why the game name is not displayed properly?

You probably just have to wait

The translation was made on 9th October.... if there's a daily update, something is wrong...

I thought the game arrived in alpha today? The translations are not processed before the game is available in alpha. It should be ok tomorrow, otherwise there is indeed an issue.

Translations are available to the developer in case it's needed (but overall, except for some games where a translation may be needed in order to get a specific public to play them - such as Hungarian Tarokk - it should not be needed). Even the game name in alpha is not a big deal: alpha is for playtesters who are ready to handle a little grit.
