I can't think of anyone without an already established reputation managing to do OK at a $5+ price point in the last year or two.

Like literally the only example of paid games I can think of to do one on phones in recent year are Minecraft, Final Fantasy and GTA.

People pay $99 for 99 lives in Bjorks Butter Batterer. People will pay $99 for a real game.

"already established reputation" is overrated in the age of the internet. Lets hope the internet is still around these days.
