A typical game among these

≈ 51k–70k copies

≈ $114k–$342k after Steam's cut

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

6 of the 8 similar games are hits.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Action Roguelike (7 of 8) and Bullet Hell (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Rogue-like + Action Roguelike, priced around $5. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + Sci-fi + Survival; a typical game here doesn't.

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).
