I am a translator and tabletop specialist invested in immersive experiences. My inventory is packed with tools to support creators throughout development, from localization and technical & creative writing to custom digital solutions.
I provide the end-to-end localization toolkit to bring projects from English to both French & Brazilian Portuguese. I deliver high-quality translations, glossary management, thorough proofreading, DTP, LQA, you name it! The goal is total immersion. Players should never get pulled out of the experience by a clumsy translation.
Every game is different, and so are its technical needs! Whether you need a playable digital prototype, a custom tool to test your mechanics, or a way to collect and analyze playtesting data, I'm here to help. From Tabletop Simulator to browser-based games, simulations, and development tools, I build digital solutions tailored to your game, not the other way around. Whether you're refining your mechanics, pitching to publishers, or preparing for crowdfunding, let's find the right tools for the job!
Great mechanics deserve both a compelling world and clear rules! From lore, backstories, and flavor text that breathe life into your setting to rulebooks that actually make sense, I'm here to help. On the creative side, I connect themes and mechanics to make your game's universe feel alive. On the technical side, I write, structure, and review rulebooks, hunting down ambiguities, inconsistencies, loopholes, and those pesky little details that might leave players scratching their heads. After all, a great game deserves rules that are just as enjoyable to read as the game is to play!
I loved working with Elio. He was quick, detail oriented, thoroughly professional, and came up with many creative solutions to meet the game's unique needs.
I first contacted Elio in February 2026. Since then, he has been working with us doing translations from English to French for our main partner: Ludus Magnus Studio. He has always behaved professionally, he's pragmatic, he delivers on time and he is always willing to share thoughts, ideas, tips and experience, which they are always welcome. I have also get to known him a bit personally and he is a genuinely a good person. He will always work towards the deadline, whatever issues may arise during the project and he will meet it no matter what. No fuss, no muss; just what everyone looking for a translator needs.
Elio has been responsible for the French translation of Sky Empire from Greymarsh Games. Sky Empire is a fairly large board game with many different components, including cards, punchboards, tokens, and rulebooks, all containing text that needed to be translated across multiple files and formats. Working with Elio has been an absolute pleasure! He has been highly professional, reasonably priced, and extremely thorough. He even went the extra mile by pointing out several areas for improvement in the original English rules and files! I can wholeheartedly recommend working with Elio!
