Pixel Starships is a niche indie sci-fi strategy game released in 2016 by Savy Soda. As a mobile-first, cross-platform title, it had moderate popularity, but as an indie game over 8 years old, its daily active player base has likely diminished to a small but loyal group. It does not benefit from the large publisher push or expansion lifecycles that help larger live-service games maintain higher DAPs.
Estimated Daily Players
~100 thousand
We estimate that Rust has currently around 100k players daily.
Rust is a well-known multiplayer survival game, released in 2018 by Facepunch Studios. It maintains high popularity on platforms like Steam due to frequent updates, Twitch presence, and a strong PvP-focused community. It typically sees tens of thousands of concurrent players, so 100,000 daily players is a reasonable estimate for 2024.
