Did the prediction match what actually happened?

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

A typical game among these

≈ 155–537 copies

≈ $302–$339 after Steam's cut

from ~8 reviews

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

1 of the 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 at ≈ 5.6M–9.2M copies, ≈ $93.0M–$250.0M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like
The games that made it here had under 98k reviews in their first month.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Shooter (6 of 8) and Third-Person Shooter (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Warhammer 40K + Third-Person Shooter, priced around $34. The breakout hits carry Multiplayer + Warhammer 40K + Action; a typical game here doesn't.
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).
