The middle of these games

≈ 4k–5k copies

≈ $18k–$44k after Steam's cut

from ~142 reviews

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

None of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Double Kick Heroes at ≈ 7k–11k copies, ≈ $37k–$101k 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 45 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 18 to 166.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Shoot 'Em Up (6 of 8) and Arcade (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Rhythm + Zombies, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Rhythm + Zombies + 2D; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2022. 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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
