Games like Code Trainer

A typical game among these

≈ 3k–4k copies

≈ $4k after Steam's cut

from ~96 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.

Best case: Learn Game Development, Unity Code Monkey at ≈ 3k–5k copies.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 8 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 39.

Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.

The winners: Winners here lead with Simulation + Programming.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2017 to 2023, and none of them 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
