Project Details
Description on Crowdin:

Contribution
When I started translating this part, I noticed that there was an inconsistency in my previous translation. I had used both the words "editor" and "bewerker" for the word editor. So I decided to look at all the other strings that needed translation and contained the word "editor" in it, as the others were all left the same in Dutch, I first changed this translation and made sure to keep using the English word from that moment on.
As I'm not a gamer myself, I came across a few other words like "assets" and "resources" that made me question whether they needed to be left in English or not. When I asked for @minersean's advice it turned out that "assets" should be translated to the Dutch word "middelen" and "resources" should be left the same.
I find it quite interesting to learn more about terms used in the gaming world, maybe I'll start gaming myself one day in the future.

Hey @anouk.nox, thank you for your contribution to the translation project for Davinci-Utopian!
Hey Anouk, your third contribution to the GDevelop project is at the same time your third contribution this week! Nice planning!
The GDevelop website aims to show off and inform people about their tool, which is used to easily develop your own games without coding knowledge or prior experiences, and it seems really awesome!
Because of the way the website both gives an overview and goes more in-depth, there is a slight difference in the sort of strings you had to translate, instead of just one type: both knowledge about the different type of games (which mentions their genres and playstyles) and the working of the program itself (which talks about assets, recources, etc.).
You managed very well, especially for someone who, according to herself, doesn't have any game experience. Good job!
I also do have to be a bit strict: I found your post to be a bit lacking. I'm sure you could have told a bit more about this contribution, or perhaps a bit more about the project or website itself. You did very well with your previous translations so I'm sure it was just a slight slip up, no worries :).
Great job!
