Games tagged both Funny and Pixel Graphics: 221 indie paid launches, 10 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.
Showing Funny + Pixel Graphics priced $10 to $20, west-facing view. Lens figures exist at all prices only, so inside a price band the page shows the standard figures.
The pair's chance of a $100k+ first year beside each of its two tags, ranked like a high-score table, with typical earnings and the launches behind every figure.
Funny + Pixel Graphics trails both its tags: 3 of its 26 launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 18.4 in 100 for Funny and 22.4 in 100 for Pixel Graphics.
Lens figures by price band are not computed yet, so this band uses the standard figures. Small sample: 26 launches, 3 hits.
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: 42.4 in 100), so read it within a price band.
The overlap is this niche: the 26 games tagged both Funny and Pixel Graphics priced $10 to $20. 11.5 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 19.1 for Funny-only games and 23.0 for Pixel Graphics-only games, so games with both tags did worse than games with either tag alone.
Both: 26 games priced $10 to $20; 11.5 in 100 earned $100k+, typical first-year earnings $17,302.
Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 26 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. The west-facing view lens is not computed for the outer parts, so this diagram uses the standard figures.
