≈ 1k–10k copies

≈ $2k–$4k after Steam's cut

from ~141 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: Seal: WHAT the FUN at ≈ 13k–21k copies.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 51 reviews in their first month; the range was 16 to 464.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering

The winners
Winners here lead with Party Game + Battle Royale.
When they shipped
4 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years, so this genre is actively shipping.
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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
