The middle of these games

≈ 59k–118k copies

≈ $240k–$711k 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: TUNIC at ≈ 457k–743k copies, ≈ $3.8M–$10.1M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

About half the games that made it here had over 1k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 190 to 2k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Action-Adventure (6 of 8) and Puzzle (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Exploration + Puzzle, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Souls-like + Metroidvania + Isometric; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2013 to 2024, and 1 of your 8 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).
