Ticker: price and year-over-year change for 40 genres. Price is the median estimated first-year revenue of indie paid launches. The change shows for genres with 100+ launches. The same figures are on the Genres page.
Niches / Funny + Multiplayer
Funny + Multiplayer
Games tagged both Funny and Multiplayer: 190 indie paid launches, 27 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.
Showing Funny + Multiplayer 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 Funny and is about level with Multiplayer; priced $10 to $20 it is too small to compare with Funny and is too small to compare with Multiplayer.
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.
Funny + Multiplayer is too small to compare with Funny and is too small to compare with Multiplayer: 8 of its 24 launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 19.9 in 100 for Funny and 29.5 in 100 for Multiplayer.
Lens figures by price band are not computed yet, so this band uses the standard figures. Small sample: 24 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: 40.0 in 100), so read it within a price band.
The overlap is this niche: the 24 games tagged both Funny and Multiplayer priced $10 to $20. 8 of 24 of them earned $100k+, against 18.4 in 100 for Funny-only games and 29.1 in 100 for Multiplayer-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Funny alone and is too small to compare with Multiplayer alone.
Both: 24 games priced $10 to $20; 8 of 24 earned $100k+, typical first-year earnings $27,224.
Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 24 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.
