Estimates carry a ±30-50% error range per title. **Measured on 2026-08-30 05:35 UTC.** The whole Steam catalog is re-measured daily; a game that just launched can move a lot between passes. - Steam appid: 3553250 - Developer: Kelecik - Released: 2026 · Genre: Action · List price: $7.99 - Deal grade: C (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal) - Est. net residual revenue: $2.4k to $3.6k per month (mid $3.0k) - Opportunity score: $3.0k/month at x1.00 dormancy multiplier - Est. lifetime owners: 2.0k · Est. lifetime net revenue: $5.2k - Review sentiment: 78% positive across 54 reviews (49 from Steam purchases) - Review velocity: 44.5 reviews/month (6-month average) ## Why it's flagged - Developer active, last post 0 months ago - Last build shipped 0 months ago ## Where a gross dollar goes (monthly, at current velocity) | Stage | USD/month | |---|---| | Gross storefront sales | $5.4k | | After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $4.7k | | After refunds (-9.5% median) | $4.3k | | Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $3.0k | ## Markets by review language - french: 3% - english: 66% - russian: 28% - schinese: 3% ## Methodology Units are estimated from Steam-purchase reviews times a release-cohort multiplier, 40-75x by year. Cohorts from 2020 on are calibrated against 182 sales milestones announced by developers; older ones follow the published Boxleiter tables. 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.
