Niches / First-Person + Stylized

Niche

First-Person + Stylized

Games tagged both First-Person and Stylized: 204 indie paid launches, 8 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.
  • From 26,758 indie paid launches 12 to 36 months old, data of 2 Nov 2026. How it is measured.

Showing First-Person + Stylized priced $10 to $20. This filter changes the answer: at all prices the pair trails First-Person and is about level with Stylized; priced $10 to $20 it is too small to compare with First-Person and is too small to compare with Stylized.

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: 0.4 in 100 launches earned $100k+; $20 to $40: 44.2 in 100), so read it within a price band.

Price bandswitches the whole page
What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 26 games tagged both First-Person and Stylized priced $10 to $20. 5 of 26 of them earned $100k+, against 24.8 in 100 for First-Person-only games and 20.3 in 100 for Stylized-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with First-Person alone and is too small to compare with Stylized alone.

Both: 26 games priced $10 to $20; 5 of 26 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 21 of 26 launches · $10k+ 12 of 26 launches · $100k+ 5 of 26 launches.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 26 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.
