Co-op + FPS
Games tagged both Co-op and FPS: 52 indie paid launches, 17 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.
Showing Co-op + FPS priced $10 to $20.
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.
Co-op + FPS beats both its tags: 8 of its 15 launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 33.8 in 100 for Co-op and 23.5 in 100 for FPS.
Small sample: 15 launches, 8 hits.
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 15 games tagged both Co-op and FPS priced $10 to $20. 53.3 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 32.2 for Co-op-only games and 21.5 for FPS-only games, so games with both tags did better than games with either tag alone.
Both: 15 games priced $10 to $20; 53.3 in 100 earned $100k+, typical first-year earnings $122,249.
Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 15 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.
