Spry Fox, the studio known for charming hits like Alphabear and Triple Town, has just finished a rapid departure from Netflix to regain full independence. The founders revealed that this move happened faster than expected, pushing the studio into a leaner, more hands-on phase. To bring their latest project, Spirit Crossing, across the finish line, both executives and staff have taken pay cuts—a sign of just how committed the team is to making their biggest game yet. This fresh chapter seems to carry both the risks and excitement of building something truly new without the safety net of a corporate parent, but with the creative freedom Spry Fox’s fans have come to expect. Spirit Crossing is shaping up to be an interesting test of how the studio balances ambition with pragmatism.
