Trashtalk

Trashtalk is the language spoken by the mutants in Nuclear Throne.

Trashtalk is being developed by Joonas Turner, who also does the voice acting in the game for all of the characters except for Yung Venuz (Doseone ), Rogue (Danielle McRaven), Frog (Jukio Kallio), Rebel, and the Female I.D.P.D. (Isa And aka Chisaleya).

Paul Veer confirmed that Trashtalk has no written variant. JW revealed that Bandits speak a simplified dialect of Trashtalk.

Included in the Nuclear Throne Indiebox was a Guide to Trashtalk, created by Joonas. It lists several phrases and sounds used in Trashtalk, with their rough English equivalent, all of which are listed below. In the PAX East Trailer for Nuclear Throne the narration is done in Trashtalk, which is subtitled. Using this, some phrases can be translated, as shown in this table.

Same thing goes for the 2015 launch trailer.
