6 of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Lossless Scaling at ≈ 1.2M–1.9M copies, ≈ $2.2M–$6.0M 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 (7 of 8) and Utilities (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Utilities + Software, priced around $13. The breakout hits carry 2D + Pixel Graphics + Utilities; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2014 to 2022, 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 70 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
