     @animeirl @vriska https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyan_Worlds tiny studio living off kickstarters i guess.
     
     game studios tend to go RIP because they over-hire, over-spend, and bet the farm literally every title.
     
     league of geeks was bragging about how their early access game had some hit VFX studio working on anime clips for their cinematics and its like my blob in crepes

     @vriska @icedquinn kinda crazy they're still around. the mainstream gaming industry is so volatile with studios constantly closing or getting bought out but cyan just hums along doing their thing

     @animeirl @vriska come to think of it how much does it cost to have a 2 minute anime rendered by a vfx studio

     @icedquinn @vriska yeah they're focused on sustainability so they can keep making their games instead of growth like the rest of the industry

     @animeirl @vriska the real question of this is what would happen if they dropped a kickstarter
     
     are they just hoping on each one going through? or do they have reserves...
     
     the wiki page looks like they aren't really taking home much

     @animeirl @vriska if you have only five people making 50k$ a year you'll burn 3mil a year, assuming no benefits/overhead/etc.
     
     this is where a lot of small studio fail too. they get excited and hire up to 20 people and burn off their runway at a meteoric rate. happens a lot

     @vriska @animeirl they are but what kickstarter exposed is they're also responsible for stopping the dev team from blowing all the money on coke and hookers.
     
     witholding funds for checkpoint dispersal and all that

     @shibao @vriska @animeirl
     > According to Masamune Sakaki, a CG creator in the anime industry, an average 13-episode anime season costs around 250 million yen (or $2 million)
     
     6.2 thousand dollars per minute, assuming 13 episodes and 25 minute episodes.
     
     so basically an entire salary for one line worker for one month

     @shibao @animeirl @vriska this is also why wadget eye tends to use moonlighters and nobodys for voice. the guild voice actors are like 80-100$ per minute and almost all of that is consumed by union fees.
     
     nobodies go for like 8-20$ per minute and literally make the same amount of profit.
     
     this is PROBABLY why warframe is voiced almost exclusively by random employees.
