Games like TANKNAROK

A typical game among these

≈ 172k–1.7M copies

≈ $1.3M–$9.6M after Steam's cut

from ~7k reviews

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

7 of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: SpeedRunners at ≈ 1.5M–2.5M copies, ≈ $6.4M–$17.2M after Steam's cut.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Twin Stick Shooter (5 of 8) and Co-op (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Racing + Competitive, priced around $15.
When they shipped: None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2019. That says more about which games were found than about the market.

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 36 for the most recent game here to about 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
