How many copies did Standoff Beat sell?

Estimated copies sold
≈ 99–161
$272–$732 after Steam's cut $495–$1k before Steam's cut
from 4 reviews (4 user reviews)
Only 4 reviews so far, so that range swings on one or two people. Read it as a hint, not a measurement.

Copies are estimated from the public review count, adjusted for release year, and cross-checked against SteamSpy's own estimate.

Did the prediction match what actually happened?

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

Games like Standoff Beat

A typical game among these

≈ 3k–8k copies

≈ $3k–$12k after Steam's cut

from ~112 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: One Finger Death Punch at ≈ 915k–1.5M copies, ≈ $1.3M–$3.4M 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 72 reviews in their first month; the range was 3 to 218.
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 (5 of 8) and Rhythm (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Fast-Paced + Beat 'em up, priced around $6. The breakout hits carry Indie + Fast-Paced + Beat 'em up; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2014 to 2024, and 1 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 70 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
