Games like Rogue Arrows

A typical game among these

≈ 293–358 copies

≈ $502–$703 after Steam's cut

from ~10 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: In Death at ≈ 30k–49k copies, ≈ $249k–$670k 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 8 reviews in their first month; the range was 4 to 106.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Action Roguelike (8 of 8) and Rogue-lite (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Rogue-lite + Action Roguelike, priced around $5.
When they shipped: 7 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. You'd be launching into a busy stretch.

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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
