The middle of these games

≈ 158k–262k copies

≈ $354k–$2.7M after Steam's cut

Only the top fifth of 2019’s Steam releases earned about $34k gross, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: Soundpad at ≈ 3.6M–5.8M copies, ≈ $4.9M–$13.2M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Software (8 of 8) and Utilities (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Software + Utilities, priced around $5. The breakout hits carry Simulation + Shooter + Realistic; 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.
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 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
