Ticker: price and year-over-year change for 40 genres. Price is the median estimated first-year revenue of indie paid launches. The same figures are on the Genres page.
3D + Physics
Games tagged both 3D and Physics: 385 indie paid launches, 26 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.
Showing 3D + Physics priced $10 to $20, without the breakout. Lens figures exist at all prices only, so inside a price band the page shows the standard figures. This filter changes the answer: at all prices the pair beats 3D and is level with Physics; priced $10 to $20 it beats both its tags.
The pair's chance of a $100k+ first year beside each of its two tags, ranked like a high-score table, with typical earnings and the launches behind every figure.
3D + Physics beats both its tags: 19.2 in 100 of its launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 14.3 in 100 for 3D and 17.5 in 100 for Physics.
That is about 1.0 times the 18.6 in 100 expected for any launch at this price. Lens figures by price band are not computed yet, so this band uses the standard figures.
Each circle is one tag, sized by its launches, and the gold overlap is exactly this pair. Click a part to read it. Price changes the odds more than genre does (under $5: 0.5 in 100 launches earned $100k+; $20 to $40: 42.4 in 100), so read it within a price band.
The overlap is this niche: the 52 games tagged both 3D and Physics priced $10 to $20. 19.2 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 14.1 for 3D-only games and 16.8 for Physics-only games, so games with both tags did better than games with either tag alone.
Both: 52 games priced $10 to $20; 19.2 in 100 earned $100k+, typical first-year earnings $7,932.
Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 52 launches. The outer parts are each tag's launches minus the pair's, so their chance is exact; their typical earnings are not computed yet. The without the breakout lens is not computed for the outer parts, so this diagram uses the standard figures.
