Games like Clutch

A typical game among these

≈ 371–3k copies

≈ $372–$5k after Steam's cut

from ~25 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: FlatOut 3: Chaos & Destruction at ≈ 277k–450k copies, ≈ $760k–$2.0M 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 3 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 14.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Combat Racing (8 of 8) and Racing (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Combat Racing + Vehicular Combat, priced around $17. The breakout hits carry Vehicular Combat + Multiplayer + Sports; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2011 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
