I just stumbled across a new GOG release without a release thread, Kajko i Kokosz.

https://www.gog.com/game/kajko_i_kokosz

From GOG's product page:

"This game is available in Polish only and was never released outside Poland. Although it’s a hilarious and humoresque piece of art based on the original Polish comic-book series by Janusz Christa, you won’t be able to play it if you’re not ready to learn one of the hardest languages in the world."

I went looking for a fan translation and found one in a forum here:

http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=38683

The finished English version of the game is available at the Wanted Team site, under Other Files Page in the following files:

# KajkoIKokosz_D2.DMS (831617 bytes) - "Kajko & Kokosz" from Seven Stars - disk 2.
# WT-K&KE1.DMS (572726 bytes) - "Kajko & Kokosz" from Seven Stars - english version disk 1.
# WT-K&KE3.DMS (812601 bytes) - "Kajko & Kokosz" from Seven Stars - english version disk 3.

It'd be nice if the folks at GOG could contact the translator and get permission to use their work to create an English language version for use on GOG.

Nice find, yes would be great to get it in English and give a wider audience as well.
Never change Barry.

Great find, as usual!

Barry_Woodward: ...
As others said, great work. I suggest sending a message to Support or pm'ing a blue. Personally I wouldn't get my hopes up, but since it's a game without English, since I assume most GOG customers' first language is English, GOG might prioritize trying to add this.
Nice find, but aren't those Amiga files? From what I've read it's an Amiga scene site.
Is Polish really that hard?
I doubt the majority of GOG's customers are native English speakers.

Not really. It is a bit hard to learn, but there are certainly harder and less "intuitive" languages to learn.

I thought a few years back we got data saying most of GOG's business happened in the US, and 2nd was like France or Germany. I could be wrong or things have changed.

And around half of the population in USA speaks English as their mothertongue. Most know it of course.

I was going to go with the “well the majority are Americans” joke on not speaking English. Just as an example:
