But honestly and with no offense intended, I think the answer to your question is kind of obvious: Zootopia is intended as a kids movie, as anthros have that mainstream association, and the markets for kids movies vs kids games are vastly different in size and viability

You said "decent budget", which was open to interpretation. Pretty sure Animal Crossing gets decent budget, and games like Tunic or Moss or Ori kind of straddle the line, or are at least top-of-the-line indies

Easier still if we can delve into nostalgia-land, with Sonic, Spyro, Starfox, etc. The industry has moved past those halcyon days, for sure, but to say “they” REFUSE seems a little reactionary

I don’t know what “they” you’re talking about, but:

- Tunic
- Yooka Laylee
- Moss
- Animal Crossing
- Super Animal Battle Royale
- A Short Hike
- Rivals of Aether
- Bear and Breakfast
- Ori
- Eastshade
- Night in the Woods
- Foretales

IS THAT SOME PORTLAND HAPPENING

Hey thank you! They must have joined after my post (or the search function is bad?). It was cool meeting you!

Hell yeah, all. Looking forward to 2026
November 15, 2025 at 7:44 PM
Thanks for replying. Just seems wrong that we all have to go along with it. I wish buyers were more principled and/or informed (seemed like most people were surprised to see the numbers you posted)

I do get that, and I don’t want to be too critical since I’m on the outside looking in, but I have to push back. Especially because it seems like audible isn’t foundational to your income. If we were concerned about reach over principles, we’d all still be on twitter.

If not you, then who?

If you didn’t put it on audible at all, I wonder what those stats would be. After all, a non-audible sale is worth four times as much

It’s Rose City Til I Die, not Rose City Til I Cry. See you next year

“Goes into a hot-button political thread to spam vaguely related images with lots of yellow text” guy is my favorite genre of guy to block. It’s like settling in to a warm bath

Aww thanks for the shout my dude! Such a fun track to work with. What a great experience c:

Searches in this article for “corrupt”, “illegal”, “conflict”, or even just “concern” yielded 0 results. So, what’s the point of you again?
November 6, 2025 at 3:01 PM
Psst it’s tomorrow
November 3, 2025 at 3:16 PM
But then how will you get products from beloved brands like FLOOPRO or GLOZLI or WEXQWE
October 22, 2025 at 2:06 PM
See ya Wednesday

Still attached?

My sweet spots are:

6.2–8.0: Good, probably interesting in some way
1.8–4.0: Good-bad, probably interesting in some way

The high 4s and 5s are a boring slog wasteland into which I dare not stray
October 16, 2025 at 7:57 PM
So … how’s your scalp?
October 16, 2025 at 2:28 AM
Ooh, one of my favorite books! My first time reading it, I blasted through the whole thing on a road trip

A private ballot is critical in a democracy. Especially if (pardon if this is unrealistic) people elected a crazy partisan asshole with a penchant for retribution against the opposing party
