A typical game among these

≈ 2k–20k copies

≈ $12k–$109k after Steam's cut

from ~165 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: Void Crew at ≈ 210k–341k copies, ≈ $1.4M–$3.9M after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 73 reviews in their first month; the range was 5 to 5k.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Rogue-lite (8 of 8) and Action Roguelike (6 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Co-op + Space Sim, priced around $25.
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).
