- Sonic and the crew have a very important message. This is their final chance at continuing their adventures here at Balena Productions. Join the cause here: / balenaproductions
For over 15 years I have created animations on CZcams. I have been able to make it through many challenges, but this is now our darkest hour. Their poorly implimented COPPA policies are destroying the lives of animators across the platform. It is my final stand to try to move platforms over to Patreon. With your help, we can make that happen.

Now is the time to act. Let us stick it to CZcams that they cannot treat creators like this. Please become a Patreon member today so I can continue to create animations for years to come. Projects like “Sonic in Scared Stupid: The Final Chapter”, “Sonic Warriors”, and more cannot happen without you!

If you want to see a full explanation of what is going on: czcams.com/video/E_xp0JtsW4Y/video.html
FAQ:
“Will we have to pay to see your animations?”
Absolutely not! I will never paywall animations. I just need the funds to make them! My animations will always be free for everyone. If my CZcams channel somehow vanishes, I will upload to Patreon for everyone.
“What about CZcams Memberships?’
CZcams takes a large cut from members. It is best to move over to Patreon if you are a CZcams member. CZcams members will continue to get the benefits as promised.
“Why do you need money to make videos?”
It takes an immense amount of time to create animations. Time costs living. Living costs money. If we can reach the minimum goal, I can animate full time. Currently I have to split my time between other avenues to make a living. I also have to pay for some 3D assets, equipment and so on. What I do is not cheap, nor free.
“Who is the Bat character?”
That is Mel the Bat is the main antagonist from the (hopefully) upcoming movie I’m working on “Sonic in Scared Stupid: The Final Chapter”.
“I can’t pledge. Is there anything else I can do to help?”
Spread the word! Share this video, the Patreon, just get the news out there! The more eyeballs we get the better!
“When’s the next Sonic Zombies?”
This will be your only chance to get them back. So get to pledging!

I know your cause and 100% support it, but does this mean you'll still upload to CZcams? I really don't watch stuff on patrion
Don't worry, I can't donate but I will post on my channel and share the link to your Patreon!
There,there Justin your life and heart will go on from CZcams with pateron and i will be a member and be a hero to save your channel justin
@zioncinema7349 I'm the same but if he for some unfortunate reason has to 100% quite CZcams then Patreon is our last hope
Knock it off CZcams, you let Markiplier and Jacksepticeye get a pass on making not so friendly kid stuff, so why are you harassing this fun animator!?
I miss the times when media wasn't expected to raise children, when parents actually took responsibility to pay attention and gatekeep what their kids accessed.
It's because the internet wasn't as accessible back in the past as it is today. I know, because I was alive during those times. Nowadays, any schmuck kid can buy themselves a computer for next to nothing, even without a valid state ID and become easily exposed to the Internet.
You, PixelRush and Chakra-X deserve better Balena. Either CZcams changes its policy, or we’ll just have to make a new site that lets everyone watch and make videos without limitations
That’s the thing though. Google has a monopoly and CZcams will *never* have competition. They could run this site into the ground and there will still be no alternatives.
Exactly.
Its also sonic content creators in general. not only is it stomping on prominent individuals who make sonic content, but its also discouraging upcoming and new creators who long to make videos because they're passionate, but aren't being treated justly by youtube.
Hey, unrelated but, has anyone heard of Newgrounds?
@@WoxyBoxy That's why the best thing to do is to watch hopesless how these things fall apart not being able to do anything.
Because we failed
CZcams shouldn't just make everything made for kids, it should be made for all ages. I hope everything goes well.
Yeah
YEAH!
they should add something like "For All Ages" type option,
but it probably won't end up happening, hope i'm wrong
Whatever happened to CZcams Kids?.....You know? lol
1:19 WOAH MAMA! 👀
Right spot on brother
Only you can keep this channel going. With just pennies a day you can save the Sonic Zombie cast!
I burst out laughing when Momma Robotnik sang! Mel looks amazing! We're here to support you, Steve!
Biscuit has such a beautiful singing voice
Yes she does
@@camellitodk5115 MA!!!
As a huge Sonic fan, seeing fan animations like what Chara and Balena create get changed to "Made For Kids" makes me livid. If CZcams doesn't change their policies next week, I will make a video about it and bring attention to the situation. Happy New Year everyone, and I hope Balena, Chara, and others are successful.
"Remember kids, how you make a family is NOT family friendly."
As a Balena Patreon backer already, I can confirm this is an extremely important cause. We need everyone's help in order to get these all off the ground. Give Mama Robotnik her biscuits!!
Let’s work together and stick it to CZcams everybody! Amazing video as always Steve, you’re still one of the hardest working CZcamsrs around and it kills me to see how unfairly you and so many other Sonic content creators get treated so here’s hoping to a bright future!
As a Sonic animator myself I've had a fair share of my own vids get flagged as MFK, but you and many other legends in this community have had it way worse than me. It breaks my heart seeing so many of my childhood inspirations go through all this crap, no one on this platform deserves it. Regardless of what happens I'm with you every step of the way Steve, I know as a community we can all rise up and overcome the odds!
We’re Gonna keep your animations alive, no matter what! I believe in ya Balena
I hope this patreon works. I love watching your animations. (and Mel) We must not give up hope.
Thanks Gordon
U da best Gordon ❤
is that the gordon
Mel is the best!🖤
@@abluemoon88sydneypaige44 Agreed!
😢 I’m sorry you’re going through this trouble with CZcams Steve, you’re such an incredible talent icon on the platform for half a decade now. Keep up the good work!
2:38 this made me laugh so much including the part of sonic getting thrown off in the end, I can't stop laughing. 😂😂😂
"Hey kids go ask your parents how they made you!"
"Sonic Zombie" Sonic - Oh and uh in case this video does get flagged as made for kids by those F**king CZcams A**holes, hey kids go ask your parents how they made you! Hehehehe~
My god… your animations are just incredible, so much improvement over the years. Glad the patreon and CZcams members and all will help you to continue what you do, shout out to all the supports. Even if some people like I can’t help much, I’ll always be sticking around to watch, like and share. Was not expecting that final part, you go Sonic XD
Can we also acknowledge how well animated this is? Next to Pixelrush this is fantastic 👏
I really love Mell’s design.
This is so tragic. Thank you, original Zombies Sonic, for your curse words since CZcams is ridiculous.
I have never heard of this channel before, but BY GOD that Sonic model is animated well. I gotta look further into this
CZcams shouldn't have flagged your videos as "MaDe foR KIds beCaUsSe iT'S SoNIc aND kIDs liKe sOniC sO mARk tHat dOwN fFor KIDs aNd sCrEw The cREaTor tHEy DOn't mATtEr" and I'm pretty sure they said that 2 seconds after they saw the thumbnail with Sonic in it. I hope that everyone at Balena Productions can continue to create their amazing projects. You guys deserve it.
Spreading the word for you Balena. And sharing the love. You guys have made amazing animations throughout the years, and I wanna support you in any way I can. Just like the Blue Blur, we are gonna keep marching forward!
This was the first animation I ever saw from your channel, and I must say, at the quality you make them, CZcams is such a-
RTgame uses the word 'youtube'. eg: youtube is such a youtube.
1:20 Smash
I'm going to miss this the most if one of these videos continues to get marked for kids. I've been a fan of the Sonic Animations for the longest, along with other series that aren't Sonic-related.
This masterpiece truly touches the heart 11/5
🎵In my arms are some biscuits🎵 So beautiful 😂
Let’s hope everything works out in the end.
2:38 Glad to see he hasn't changed :,)
Got a big smile out of seeing the old Sonicdude3 mascot cameo. You got this, bud! Everyone smack that Patreon all the way up to the top stretch goal! To hell with CZcams and their damn kids running on our lawns.
Hell yeah brother! He needs to go swimmin tbh. Next time I'll make "Steve in Glitch-Hog" where he works at Circuit City.
Between that Circuit City paycheck and the Patreon money, he'll be swimmin in cash. @@BalenaProductions
CZcams made for kids that I know that sucks for you
CZcams should let you keep letting you make more videos on your CZcams channel for more videos
Hang in there, Steven. We're gonna make sure Balena Productions lives on and youtube isn't gonna stop us they better change their policy right now
It’s sad to see this Chanel get treated like this when it has so much potential ( btw at 1:40 I laughed at old Sonic’s joke and I understand it)
Lucky I watched that series THERE ARE SO MANY ZOMBIES!!!!!
Nooo we can't let this this channel die!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭 Your animations are awesome, Steve! I hope everything will work out...
Me too, I am hoping and praying for you Steve that this CZcams channel stays alive, it scars my heart seeing this happening. 😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥
Mrs Robotnik singing at the start was genius! I hope Manic makes a return in his seasonal show and Silver gets out of the dog house, i also hope Mel gets her time to shine in the spotlight, at first glance she may appear to be just a "hot evil clone of Rouge" but she is so much more and could prove it if given the chance, i wish all a happy new year and in 2024 we WILL see a brighter future for this channel and all others who wish to animate for a living like myself (although my animations are rare and often crap) if i had the money I'd donate to the worthy cause without hesitation but unfortunately i cannot, but i will still support how i can, spreading the word of this channel and it’s Patreon master plan!
I will end this long comment with a sincere Happy New Year to all!
All jokes aside, I’d be a liar if I didn’t say I wasn’t a little genuinely hurt by how upset Sonic looked and sounded through this whole thing… guess we better fix that, huh?
Also, the bit with Silver curled up asleep in the doghouse is hecking adorable… even if it yanks the heartstrings.
But anyway… I seriously wish I had the money confidence to heed yours and Sonic’s plea directly, but I wish all the best for you and the team
I been here since the start of sonic zombies and I got to say your animations have gotten better and better I will always support such amazing talent
I love how well this video does at parodying sad commercials while also being funny that shows how much the CZcams Made For Kids tag has affected the channel as a whole. CZcams shows how much they're trying to limit their stuff to only being for kids content tagging stuff like this and it shows how much a change needs to happen for there being content for everyone not just kids on CZcams. But you did an awesome job on this Steve as I believe the fundraiser will work throughout 2024.
I just wanna say on part of myself, the team, and the generations of people you inspired. Thank you. You have an extremely talented and dedicated team behind you and we will always have your back no matter what. I don’t care if we come back to this now, or 10 years from now, I will always find the time to finish what we started. I wish you a very happy new year, and a shining future! ❤
Thank you Manatee. You are amazing brother.
Hello, I've never seen this channel before in my life but I shall support this cause
*I really appreciate the kind words that you give us. As myself being a huge fan of Sonic, I’ll keep your animations alive, ASAP. Be aware, Balena Productions’s channel and videos aren’t “Made For Kids”, it’s for all ages. ✌🏻*
Don’t worry Balena, you have your subscribers & supporters to help you bring your animations to life and not being made for kids, like what Sonic 2023 Recap video says at the end: NEVER. STOP. RUNNING. BTW, Mel is amazing!!!
I love this omg the script, the ASPCA styled commercial, very clever overall. But in all seriousness I wish all the best for you and all the other content creators! I’m already pledging 😊
Well we’re all gonna fight for your channel because I loved all the videos you did for years and we’re not gonna lose them because of this policy. We’re here for ya Steve 😊💖. One hundred percent support ✊🏻 !
As soon as my life gets together im going on that patreon and supporting you. You was my childhood since sonic zombies and it gateway itself to your more high quality animation which i loved! I havent heard anything from this channel in years...i thought it was all over so knowing that your back means that i really should make that patreon part of my bucket list
Great job on this biscuit at the beginning singing and silver at the end were the highlight of the video for me. Glad to see Mel too! I'll end this comment saying this animation is a medium not I repeat NOT just a genre for kids. I wish you all the best on your projects and patreon! 🙂
Also you hit me in the feels
i hate how youtube makes half of everything ''made for kids''
I can't get over about this scene 1:45
Sonic - and Pinky, poor Pinky! She was modeled but never rigged because of the budget cuts due to this horrible policies.
Pinky - [*Angry but couldn't move in modeled state*]
Sonic - Uh maybe it's best she stays that way!
Poor Joeshi! Don't let youtube discourage you and keep making the videos the way you always do. Btw, that was a pretty nice ending :)
Love the Yoshi. I first met Balena at one of the con. I feel sorry to see he has problems with CZcams. I want him to continue making videos regardless if it is kids friendly or not.
It's sad to Project Shadow 2023, being one of the best fan films this year, also face the same tragedy😔. I feel bad for joao filipe santiago he doesn't deserve this 😭😭😭.
This really sent me lol. C'mon folks! Just a dollar, and we can have so much more content just like this and many other videos! Help Steve and the other amazing folks here continue to entertain for years to come. This can only happen with your help!!!
I found your channel from Sonic in JAWS when I was a kid (I had a shark phase back then). Then later on when I was into Gmod content, I found your Sonic Zombies series and enjoyed it very much. Then I found your Sonic Sacred Stupid series and boy did it make me laugh and scared for my life.
I honestly, hope everything going well with you and that you can make more animations soon.
Good luck Balena
00:55- 😭😭😭
2:42 “hey kids go ask your parents how they made you (funny laugh and gets thrown)”-sonic zombie’s sonic 2023
we believe in you balena. i just wish youtube would stop doing this. also the sonic zombie part SENT me
As a long time subscriber of the channel ((all the way back to the VERY first Sonic in Scared Stupid)) it's very sad to see CZcams take absolutely no action and show 0 care towards animators. Animation is NOT made for kids, even if something visually looks appealing towards children. While I can't pledge to the patreon at the moment, I definitely plan too very soon once I can stabley afford it. Really sorry this is happening to you and the crew, Steve.
You’re absolutely right like take watership down for example that movie is one of the darkest movies ever, and has a lot of violence in it but yet it’s still rated you meaning that it’s suitable for all ages which we all know it’s not and that’s why lotta people think that animation is just for kids
Yay new vid, and I hope for new Animations, also 1:03 that Yellow Guy behind Sonic Looks like my Oc
That is actually my Sonic OC =P
@@BalenaProductionsMakes sense Also I’m Surprised you Replied
Oh my god, I laughed my ass off at every segment. If I had the money, I would absolutely pledge to your patreon.
Haha, I love how you improve your Sonic animation! Manic's bit was adorable XD Love it. Made me smile. It really should be for a general audience. Not given one option. CZcams should treat us artists and animators better.
was feeling Christmas nostalgic so I decided to watch all the "Christmas with Sonic" on Christmas
Of course, Sonic. I’ll always be your member. :)
You got it, Mrs. Robotnik. We'll all try to be part of the Patreon, and get you your biscuits!
This is legitimately one of the best videos I've ever watched
bro i love this channel. i was here when sonic zombies was huge and didnt come back to pursue my own youtube. this guy is so funny man. hooba dooba
Hahaha that joke with zombie sanic asking kids to ask how babies are made 😂
"Jewish yoshi doesn't exist he can't hurt you"
Jewish yoshi: 0:30
Anything to save Joshi 😭 I'll support, but seriously I love your channel and I just hope the best for y'all regardless.
Hope y'all have a good rest of your day
You're using a little fan service to get more support, and I totally respect that.
Nice parody, Steven.
You have my full support. :)
Justice for Balena Productions!
Im glad that sonic zombie characters sometimes makes a random appereanct
Keep it up people to keep this man alive!
Sorry Boshi 😔✊
God, that sonic zombies bit brought back memories.
Well I'm sorry, I'm saddened by this news and I didn't expect it, I'll miss your 10000% perfect animations and have good luck..😢
OK, does anyone else need a longer version of the biscuit song.
Don’t just do it for Mel!, do it for Buttery Biscuit Robotnik!
Needs more Eggman
We will always support you balena productions
God, now I can imagine all these characters in some sort of Fosters Home For Imaginary Friends type scenario
2:38 sonic just went savage xd
1:40
Yooooooo!
GMOD sonic came back!
So blessed to be able go help at least a little bit in helping you make people's dreams come true through your videos. Praying for your success and recognition in the coming year! 🙏🙏😌😌
I remember the famous words of Joeshi: “okay.” YT just needs to stop automatically making stuff “for kids.”
Anyone wanna play spot the easter egg? Because I see a lot of hidden goodies. Even with kind of announcement it still manages to get a chuckle out of me. Really hope that this PATERON becomes a big succes and we get to see more awesome project come to life.
I love your guys animation I been watching a lot of them since back when sonic zombies was a trending video I hope to see more of your guys work it’s absolutely amazing Your videos are so addicting you just can’t get enough of it lol
Here you go Steve.
Hope you are doing well! Stay strong!
We enjoy lots of content from your channel!
This video has made me respect Steve even more oh and have a happy new year!
It's still sad that CZcams has done this. Sonic in Jaws was the first time I ever saw a GMOD animation. (Probably) I can't really donate, but I do hope that you can reach all goals on Patreon.
let's hope CZcams doesn't screw this video over too 😭 🙏🏾 you're so talented so it sucks to see this happen
At this point, just make the thumbnails of Sonic giving the middle finger while holding a sign saying “F*ck them kids!” 🤣
It’s always great when Balena productions uploads
Absolutely phenomenal work as always, Steve! I'm not in any position to support financially but I hope my like and comment will help this thing get a bit more algorithm juice

Oh the prodigal child has return! 😂
She’s our favorite babe
@@ManateeStudios HOOBA
DOOBA!!!!
Mel is is a Vampire Bat. Awesome and I feel sorry for the characters
I can't take joshi's face anymore it's so droopy
.
We still have time. we can still save them and their episodes and series
