I guess I listened to a lot of music this year

I guess I listened to a lot of music this year
Been discussing future projects lately and I am really excited for what comes next! Nothing is set in stone but it might be a dream project next for me... We're definitely at a "something's gotta give" point. Every release of ours has sold worse than the one before it, all the way back to HB
Just kinda thonking out loud but this year's sales have been super dire.... Gotta figure out what we're doing next year. Might be the last year or two that we can really operate if things continue as they are. None of our releases since like 2023 have done that well...

I swapped from Spotify to Apple Music about a year ago and honestly no regrets. It's so much better for listening to local files, and the AM exclusives are way better than Spotify's IMO. My one complaint is the occasional bug or issue, especially since I don't have an iPhone, but it's worth it to me
I understand why people stay on services that suck but not Spotify. There’s so many other platforms that are 1-to-1 the same but with less garbage if not objectively better.

If you don't get that the "yucky porn games" are the gateway to censor further media that YOU personally think is acceptable, you need to get your head out of your ass. They're trying to divide people into smaller groups so their collective power is also smaller. Kill the cop in your head.
Already seeing folks say, "Well, HORSES isn't YUCKY PORN like other games are, so..." which is super frustrating.
Now is NOT the time to be throwing the hentai games you happen not to like under the bus. Your rage should be directly at payment processors.

Just kinda thonking out loud but this year's sales have been super dire.... Gotta figure out what we're doing next year. Might be the last year or two that we can really operate if things continue as they are. None of our releases since like 2023 have done that well...
