Games like 天神印(THE BLOCKADE)

A typical game among these

≈ 293–1k copies

≈ $168–$1k after Steam's cut

from ~23 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.

No genre covers most of these similar games. The closest is 2D Fighter (4 of 8), so its genre is hard to place.

Of the 416 indie games that passed 1,000 reviews in 2022, 11.8% were novel genre mixes and 88.2% stuck to an established genre. Published indie market research.

Best case: Jay and Silent Bob: Mall Brawl at ≈ 2k–4k copies, ≈ $9k–$24k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 7 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 28.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share 2D Fighter (4 of 8) and Simulation (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Beat 'em up + Fighting, priced around $15.
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).
