How these estimates are made

Active Matter

Active Matter is estimated to have 29 – 13k players a day. Around 13k – 1m accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.

Sky: Children of the Light

Sky: Children of the Light is estimated to have 14k – 48k players a day. Around 440k – 1m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
