- Developer: Just Purkey Games
- Released: 2024 · Genre: Action · List price: $24.99
- Deal grade: D (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $755 to $1.1k per month (mid $944)
- Opportunity score: $944/month at x1.00 dormancy multiplier
- Est. lifetime owners: 9.7k · Est. lifetime net revenue: $71.1k

## Why it's flagged

- Last build shipped 7 months ago

## Where a gross dollar goes (monthly, at current velocity)

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $1.7k |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $1.5k |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $1.3k |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $944 |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (22 months)

137, 40, 24, 12, 12, 11, 6, 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 5, 4, 6, 4, 5, 1, 7, 3, 11, 4

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 5 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 22 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$5.8k net in total, assuming a unit uplift of x3.0 (industry-typical for old catalog titles). Same ±30-50% error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- french: 1%
- koreana: 1%
- spanish: 1%
- german: 1%
- english: 90%
- russian: 3%
- japanese: 1%
- schinese: 1%

## Methodology

Units are estimated from Steam-purchase reviews times a release-cohort multiplier (Boxleiter method, 20-75x by year). Revenue uses an effective price (lifetime discounts and regional pricing) and nets out VAT (~13%), refunds (~9.5%) and Steam's 30% cut: roughly 55% of gross reaches the developer.
