Cyberpunk + Sci-fi

Games tagged both Cyberpunk and Sci-fi: 81 indie paid launches, 7 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.

How to read this page

A hit is an estimated $100k+ first year. Revenue is estimated from Steam reviews, so read figures as "about". Earnings are sales on Steam after discounts and regional prices, before Steam's 30% cut, refunds and sales tax. About 58% of it reaches the developer.
Price moves the odds more than genre does, so the page opens on one price band. The keys in section 2 switch it.

2Overlap: where the two tags meet

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: 40.0 in 100), so read it within a price band.

What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 13 games tagged both Cyberpunk and Sci-fi priced $10 to $20. 0 of 13 of them earned $100k+, against 17.9 in 100 for Cyberpunk-only games and 15.8 in 100 for Sci-fi-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Cyberpunk alone and is too small to compare with Sci-fi alone.

Both: 13 games priced $10 to $20; 0 of 13 earned $100k+, typical first-year earnings $4,811.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 13 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.
