Ticker: price and year-over-year change for 40 genres. Price is the median estimated first-year revenue of indie paid launches. The same figures are on the Genres page.
PvE + Roguelike
Games tagged both PvE and Roguelike: 258 indie paid launches, 8 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.
Showing PvE + Roguelike priced $10 to $20, last 18 months. 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.
PvE + Roguelike trails both its tags: 2.6 in 100 of its launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 12.4 in 100 for PvE and 23.5 in 100 for Roguelike.
That is 1 in 38, about 0.1 times the 18.6 in 100 expected for any launch at this price. Lens figures by price band are not computed yet, so this band uses the standard figures.
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 39 games tagged both PvE and Roguelike priced $10 to $20. 2.6 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 14.4 for PvE-only games and 25.4 for Roguelike-only games, so games with both tags did worse than games with either tag alone.
Both: 39 games priced $10 to $20; 2.6 in 100 earned $100k+ (1 in 38), typical first-year earnings $6,070.
Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 39 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 last 18 months lens is not computed for the outer parts, so this diagram uses the standard figures.
