# PULLBACK RACERS

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

- Steam appid: 3720110
- Developer: SkyBrave
- Publisher: TENSTACK
- Released: 2025 · Genre: Action · List price: $3.99
- Deal grade: B (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $178 to $268 per month (mid $223)
- Opportunity score: $357/month at x1.60 dormancy multiplier
- Est. lifetime owners: 1.2k · Est. lifetime net revenue: $1.7k
- Review sentiment: 96% positive across 45 reviews (39 from Steam purchases)
- Review velocity: 6.7 reviews/month (6-month average)

## Why it's flagged

- No developer announcement on record, ever
- Studio quiet across its whole catalog
- Last build shipped 14 months ago
- Store page localized in only 1 language(s)

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $405 |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $352 |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $319 |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $223 |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (6 months)

26, 5, 3, 1, 4, 1

## Estimated acquisition range

$5.4k to $10.7k (2-4x the trailing net annuity of $2.7k/year). Same error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- japanese: 3% (game NOT localized in this language)
- german: 3% (game NOT localized in this language)
- english: 94% (game NOT localized in this language)

Localization gap: 100% of measured reviews are written in languages the game does not support (top: english). 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.
