Games like Exodemic

A typical game among these

≈ 790–6k copies

≈ $2k–$20k after Steam's cut

from ~44 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: Whisker Squadron: Survivor at ≈ 14k–22k copies, ≈ $76k–$203k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 18 reviews in their first month; the range was 2 to 445.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Action Roguelike (5 of 8) and On-Rails Shooter (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with On-Rails Shooter + Action Roguelike, priced around $20.
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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
