Dronetto | Builder and Spanish Translator


[DISCONTINUED] Spanish version / Versión española

About Me

:cherry_blossom: Hi there! I am David and i go by Dronetto or ‘Dron’ online.
I am a 18 year-old 3D artist and Spanish translator who has been working as a freelancer at the platform since I was 12!
During that time, I’ve been contributing to a wide range of notable games and I’ve helped with the expansion of localization on the Roblox platform. I have also inspired several people on becoming localizers themselves and encouraged many developers to hire manual work for this specialization.

Here’s a list of the games I’ve helped in! Keep in mind that this list will keep growing eventually

I was also featured in a developer spotlight article, by Developers Relations!

Building Info

Before starting with the introduction of this section, I would like to apologize as most times building commissions may not be opened at the moment.

Click here!
  • I can build realistic and *cartoony (not low-poly) themes, though i’m more skilled when it comes to realism + it’s the building style i feel the most comfortable with.
    -You will be asked to pay 25% / 50% before the commission.
  • Once i get hired, I will try to do my best, so it would be great if i don’t have to rush my buildings, I can adapt myself to deadlines while they’re not so pressuring.
  • I accept group funds (R$) or USD payment via Wire Transfer

Why should my game be translated to Spanish?

Spanish is the 2nd most spoken language around the world (below Chinese). It is a language which is spoken by 580 million people all around the world! It is also considered an official language in 44 different countries. This means that 7,6% of the entire population are Spanish speakers.

This happens at the platform aswell, the Hispanic community is very large and it grows in a really rapid manner.

However, did you know that only 11.7% of Hispanic people can maintain a conversation in English? That rate applies to adults aswell. It is also pretty relevant to point out that most of the Hispanic Roblox players are <13, meaning the grand majority struggle when trying to understand English.

With Spanish translations implemented in your games, you will attract a HUGE amount of Hispanic players to play and support your projects, not only increasing your audience, fanbase and concurrent players rates, but also experiencing a major increase of monetary profits!

Localization Info

Click here!
  • I am a native speaker, I’ve been studying English in school since I was 3, been assisting to an English academy since I was 6 and I am in a bilingual course in my school, which means that some subjects are done only in English.
  • Certified Cambridge English Level B2 (FCE) [CEFR ranking]!
Check out my certificate here

  • I am a member at the Roblox Localization Team, the most notable group of Roblox consisting on translating.
  • If i doubt the meaning or context of a word or sentence, I would ask you about its context. This is to confirm everything is well localized, offering a good service.
  • Please be patient with translations, it can take a lot of time (around a week or less, depending of extension and availability) I will try to figure out the best translations for each concept or string, localization isn’t as easy as expected!
  • I can use any files given (Google Docs, Excel…). I can also use the Roblox Localization Suite
  • I will always test all the translations ingame to check out if everything is translated correctly.
  • I can accept USD payment via Wire Transfer and group funds.

Contact me anytime on my Social Media / Roblox! I tend to answer to DM’s quickly (unless I’m at school / any other activity which has got me busy.
I don’t have any specific schedule for commissions though.

I hired @Dronetto for a Spanish translation of Obby Creator. He completed the translation quickly, and was pretty much available all the time on Discord to answer any of my questions or queries.

He was very flexible and was open to using either the Localization Portal on the website or a .csv file. In the end, we opted for a shared google sheets document that allowed us to both make edits and view the table at the same time, which was really useful.

I recommend his services as a translator and will definitely be reaching out for future projects!
