Pity you don't know how it happened, I have some ideas on how to use it for modding. :)

It's a property of a language... didn't you choose Hebrew or something RTL?

actually after it happened tried finding Hebrew (I read Hebrew) but couldn't find it. it wasn't Hebrew or Arabic just literally the default English text reversed.

interesting. what for?
I think what solved it was actually changing the language from "en" to "English UK".

If I had to guess, the game auto-detected a RTL language that hasn't been translated yet (since the nightlies include every Transifex language even if incomplete).
