Did the prediction match what actually happened?

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

Copies, estimated from reviews

best case 29k (The Wonderful 101: Remastered)
Games like Jumping Knight

A typical game among these

≈ 554–2k copies

≈ $356–$9k after Steam's cut

from ~19 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: The Wonderful 101: Remastered at ≈ 22k–36k copies, ≈ $185k–$497k 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 14 reviews in their first month; the range was 5 to 331.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Character Action Game (8 of 8) and Action-Adventure (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Superhero + Character Action Game, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Superhero + Spectacle fighter + Remake; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2021. 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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
