How many copies did Anti Air sell?

Estimated copies sold
≈ 50–81
$69–$184 after Steam's cut $125–$283 before Steam's cut
from 2 reviews (2 user reviews)
Only 2 reviews so far, so that range swings on one or two people. Read it as a hint, not a measurement.

Copies are estimated from the public review count, adjusted for release year, and cross-checked against SteamSpy's own estimate.

Did the prediction match what actually happened?

We hid Anti Air and predicted how it would do from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including Anti Air's, is estimated from Steam reviews.

Copies, estimated from reviews

Games like Anti Air

A typical game among these

≈ 179–1k copies

≈ $841–$9k after Steam's cut

from ~12 reviews

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

1 of the 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Space Pirate Trainer at ≈ 98k–159k copies, ≈ $404k–$1.1M 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 102 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 Sci-fi (8 of 8) and VR (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with VR + Space, priced around $15. The breakout hits carry First-Person + Great Soundtrack + Pirates; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2022. 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 31 for the most recent game here to about 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
