Did the prediction match what actually happened?

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

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 138–2k

A typical game among these

≈ 138–2k copies

≈ $685–$12k after Steam's cut

from ~16 reviews

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

2 of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Spyro™ Reignited Trilogy at ≈ 645k–1.0M copies, ≈ $7.1M–$19.1M 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 4k 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 3D Platformer (7 of 8) and Dark Fantasy (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with 3D Platformer, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Cute + Souls-like + Action; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
Only 1 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 that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 36 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
