Games like Under the blue horizon

A typical game among these

≈ 292k–444k copies

≈ $374k–$876k after Steam's cut

from ~9k reviews

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

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Cookie Clicker at ≈ 2.3M–3.8M copies, ≈ $3.2M–$8.5M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 3k reviews in their first month; the range was 930 to 12k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Idler (7 of 8) and Clicker (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Clicker + Idler, priced around $12. The breakout hits carry Pixel Graphics + Horror + God Game; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2016 to 2025, and 3 of the 8 shipped in the last two years.

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).
