≈ $433k–$860k after Steam's cut

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: Love Is All Around at ≈ 1.1M–1.8M copies, ≈ $3.1M–$8.4M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

Your set
Your set clusters on Visual Novel (7 of 8) and FMV (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Dating Sim + Sexual Content, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + Romance + First-Person; a typical game here doesn't.

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).
