# Mixtape

> ResidualPlay case file: an overlooked Steam game still earning residual revenue. Estimates carry a ±30-50% error range per title.

- Steam appid: 2582320
- Developer: Beethoven and Dinosaur
- Publisher: Annapurna Interactive
- Released: 2026 · Genre: Adventure · List price: $19.99
- Deal grade: C (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $325.1k to $487.6k per month (mid $406.4k)
- Opportunity score: $406.4k/month at x1.00 dormancy multiplier
- Est. lifetime owners: 229.4k · Est. lifetime net revenue: $1.5M
- Review sentiment: 88% positive across 8380 reviews (7170 from Steam purchases)

## Why it's flagged

- Developer active, last post 2 months ago
- Studio active elsewhere (2 titles tracked), so this one may welcome a partner
- Last build shipped 2 months ago
- Last discounted 1 months ago, 2 sales in the last 12 months

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $737.7k |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $641.8k |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $580.8k |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $406.4k |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (3 months)

6462, 455, 358

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 2 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 3 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$68.1k 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

- brazilian: 6%
- french: 2%
- german: 2%
- koreana: 0%
- spanish: 3%
- english: 55%
- russian: 15% (game NOT localized in this language)
- japanese: 0%
- schinese: 16%

Localization gap: 15% of measured reviews are written in languages the game does not support (top: russian). Localizing is likely immediate market expansion.

## 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.
