Billiards + Score Attack

Only 7 developers shipped a Billiards Score Attack game in the last 2 years, too few for firm odds: the middle one made est. revenue: est. copies × today's US list price; gross, before Steam's cut, taxes and refunds. See method.; the top game by est. revenue, Planet Nine, made about est. revenue: est. copies × today's US list price; gross, before Steam's cut, taxes and refunds. See method.. 4 more are announced.

Verdict: poor odds, for a 3 / 10 build.

The middle developer here made $90, ×0.2 the market's $480 for a 3 / 10 build, and 3 in 10 made under $90; 1 in 20 cleared $1.0k, ×2.2 the market median. Momentum is unreadable here, too few recent games; 4 games are announced against 5 developers who shipped in the last year.

Deciding numbers: median 0.2 times the market baseline, revenue too few recent games to read momentum, 4 announced, ×0.8 per developer who shipped in the last year.
