Did the prediction match what actually happened?

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

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 366–4k
best case 23k (Soulslinger: Envoy of Death)
Games like Sky Noon

A typical game among these

≈ 366–4k copies

≈ $741–$24k after Steam's cut

from ~46 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: Soulslinger: Envoy of Death at ≈ 17k–28k copies, ≈ $94k–$254k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 5 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 504.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering

The winners
Winners here lead with Western + Rogue-lite, priced around $20.
When they shipped

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).
