Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 3k–7k

The Action lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 4k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 4k copies
≈ $6k after Steam's cut
from ~113 reviews
Best case
≈ 1.1M copies
One Finger Death Punch · ≈ $2.1M after Steam's cut
from 16k reviews
A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

6 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 2 are breakout hits far above it.

Copies and revenue are rough lifetime estimates from the review count; typical figures are medians per column, so they can come from different games.

The lane you'd be entering
  • Winners here lead with Action + Fast-Paced, priced around $6.
  • The breakout hits carry Indie + Fast-Paced + Beat 'em up; a typical game here doesn't.
  • The games you compared span 2014 to 2024, a lane with a long track record.
  • A typical game here lands in Bronze (under $10k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
