Games like INTERPOINT

A typical game among these

≈ 3.0M–4.1M copies

≈ $30.7M–$41.5M after Steam's cut

from ~82k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019's Steam releases earned $34k or more before Steam's cut, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Half-Life 2 at ≈ 17.7M–28.8M copies, ≈ $48.6M–$130.7M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 16k reviews in their first month; the range was 5k to 32k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share First-Person (6 of 8) and FPS (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with FPS + Sci-fi, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Classic + Sci-fi + Shooter; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2004 to 2020, and none of them shipped in the last two years.

How these numbers were worked out

A hit here: 1,000+ reviews, roughly $150k+ before Steam's cut (a standard indie benchmark).

Copies come from each game's reviews times a sales-per-review rate that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
