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

5 of your 8 similar games are hits.

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

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Action Roguelike (6 of 8) and Platformer (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Platformer, priced around $11. The breakout hits carry Pixel Graphics + Platformer + Loot; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2012 to 2023, 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).
