    One thing though: it costs ~$100 to list a game on Steam, which is returned to you after it’s made a thousand or two.

    Thanks for the input. Wasn’t aware of that, is this a recent thing?

      It got added when they moved from Greenlight to the current system IIRC.

      Double checked and it’s called the “Steam Direct fee”, is $100 (+ potential taxes) and you get it back when the game makes $1,000 “Adjusted Gross Revenue”.
