Many don't realize, but 100 peak players means you can live decent life in 3rd world country for a couple of years.

What is your estimate on earnings in USD? I’m ignorant.

In many places you can live alright without luxury on $300-500 a month. I'm talking modern comfortable cities, not shacks.

A game with 100 peak players may bring you at the very least $15k, but heavily depends on genre and pricing. I know people with like 90 peak players and their game earned 100k+ lifetime.

Youre not making 15k from 100 peak players

Especially not with the cut that steam takes
