Note written 2026-08-25; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.

ElecHead is a compact puzzle-platformer where a robot's detachable electrical head solves environmental puzzles through a single iteratively-explored mechanic.

This title represents a textbook indie-craft success story: 96% positive sentiment, tight design philosophy, and solid four-figure monthly residuals despite zero promotional activity in the last year and a current player base in single digits. The game has earned its lifetime floor through word-of-mouth alone. For a publisher seeking low-risk catalog depth or a studio exploring IP licensing in minimalist puzzle design, ElecHead's durability and critical consistency suggest the core design transfers well; however, the current vacuum in player engagement and developer communication warrants clarification on studio capacity before acquisition. Most realistic play: publishing.

• Risk: Extremely short playtime (median 3.8 hours) and narrow appeal limit total addressable market; ceiling may be near or met.
• Risk: No cloud saves, workshop support, or card economy; minimal community-building infrastructure for long-term engagement.
• Risk: Developer has posted no updates in 56 months and run zero discounts in the tracked period; unclear whether studio is staffed to support a publishing partnership or revival campaign.
