≈ $988–$9k after Steam's cut

from ~35 reviews

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

1 of your 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Neon Abyss at ≈ 586k–952k copies, ≈ $3.2M–$8.7M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here

The games that made it here had under 3k reviews in their first month.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Platformer (5 of 8) and Procedural Generation (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Rogue-like + Platformer, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Loot + Singleplayer + Pixel Graphics; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2013 to 2021, and none of them 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).
