CHALLENGING

Tight market overall, but the top tier is 90% solo/small studios. The ceiling is reachable — the question is whether there's enough demand. For solo developers specifically, 1% of 76 games here cross the winner line — the rate for your scale, not the blended average.

Directional, not a forecast. Scores are a snapshot of demand and competition from public market data, normalized across the catalogue. Revenue is an estimate, not reported earnings. Use it to compare lanes — not to predict a single game's outcome.
