The middle of these games

≈ 50k–61k copies

≈ $387k–$439k after Steam's cut

from ~2k reviews

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: Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef at ≈ 78k–127k copies, ≈ $430k–$1.2M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 464 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 143 to 965.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Action-Adventure (6 of 8) and 2D Platformer (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with 2D Platformer + Hand-drawn, priced around $15. The breakout hits carry Hand-drawn; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
Only 2 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. 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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
