Your set: Your set clusters on Platformer (6 of 8) and Metroidvania (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Metroidvania + Souls-like, priced around $15. The breakout hits carry Souls-like + Difficult + 2D; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2020. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
