3D + Driving

Games tagged both 3D and Driving: 178 indie paid launches, 15 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.

How to read this page

A hit is an estimated $100k+ first year. Revenue is estimated from Steam reviews, so read figures as "about". Earnings are sales on Steam after discounts and regional prices, before Steam's 30% cut, refunds and sales tax. About 58% of it reaches the developer.
Price moves the odds more than genre does, so the page opens on one price band. The keys in section 2 switch it.

2Overlap: where the two tags meet

Each circle is one tag, sized by its launches, and the gold overlap is exactly this pair. Click a part to read it. Price changes the odds more than genre does (under $5: 0.5 in 100 launches earned $100k+; $20 to $40: 40.0 in 100), so read it within a price band.

What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 27 games tagged both 3D and Driving priced $10 to $20. 7 of 27 of them earned $100k+, against 13.1 in 100 for 3D-only games and 30.0 in 100 for Driving-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with 3D alone and is too small to compare with Driving alone.

Both: 27 games priced $10 to $20; 7 of 27 earned $100k+, typical first-year earnings $8,729.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 27 launches. The outer parts are each tag's launches minus the pair's, so their chance is exact; their typical earnings are not computed yet.

3D is led by R.E.P.O., with 18.3% of its money.
Driving is led by Assetto Corsa EVO, with 13.9% of its money.
No game holds over half of this pair's money, so the pair is not a one-hit market.
