A typical game among these

≈ 2k–88k copies

≈ $6k–$703k after Steam's cut

About half the games that made it here had over 53 reviews in their first month; the range was 6 to 737.

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

The genre you'd be entering

The winners: Winners here lead with Parkour + 3D Platformer, priced around $3.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2015 to 2024, and 3 of the 8 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 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
