Games like The Runaway Feijoão

A typical game among these

≈ 51k–61k copies

≈ $394k–$450k after Steam's cut

from ~2k reviews

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

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef at ≈ 79k–128k copies, ≈ $433k–$1.2M 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 464 reviews in their first month; the range was 142 to 964.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Action-Adventure (6 of 8) and 2D Platformer (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with 2D Platformer + Hand-drawn, priced around $15. The breakout hits carry Hand-drawn; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: Only 2 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).
