Estimated copies sold: ≈ 496–806; $681–$2k after Steam's cut $1k–$3k before Steam's cut; from 20 reviews (Mostly Positive)

Games like Brave Hero

A typical game among these

≈ 5k–8k copies

≈ $28k–$40k after Steam's cut

from ~209 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: Symphonia at ≈ 10k–16k copies, ≈ $55k–$147k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 88 reviews in their first month; the range was 32 to 130.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Precision Platformer (8 of 8) and Collectathon (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Precision Platformer + Platformer, priced around $20.
When they shipped: Only 3 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. 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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
