Games like A Little Golf Journey

A typical game among these

≈ 98–748 copies

≈ $227–$2k after Steam's cut

from ~9 reviews

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

None of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: 4D Golf at ≈ 20k–32k copies, ≈ $110k–$295k after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like

The games that made it here had under 306 reviews in their first month.

Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Golf (6 of 8) and Exploration (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Mini Golf + Abstract, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Abstract + Indie + Surreal; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: 4 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years, so this genre is actively shipping.

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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
