Games like Darius Cozmic Collection Arcade

A typical game among these

≈ 4k–5k copies

≈ $18k–$44k after Steam's cut

from ~142 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: Double Kick Heroes at ≈ 7k–11k copies, ≈ $37k–$101k 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 45 reviews in their first month; the range was 18 to 165.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Shoot 'Em Up (6 of 8) and Arcade (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Rhythm + Zombies, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Rhythm + Zombies + 2D; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2022. 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).
