Casual indie game Cubism launched in 2020, developed by thomas-van-bouwel and published by vanbo-bv. Its 58 Steam reviews are 100% positive, giving it a small but unanimously positive review base, while its initial $9.99 price places it in the budget category.

Overview

Cubism is a 2020 Casual game developed by Thomas Van Bouwel and published by Vanbo BV. On Steam it has gathered 58 player reviews, 100% of them positive, which counts as a overwhelmingly positive reception among indie titles in the Casual category. The game is available on windows, and launched at $10. The pairing of developer Thomas Van Bouwel with publisher Vanbo BV is one of the studio-publisher relationships indielist tracks, letting players find comparable games and letting developers and investors study how Casual projects reach the market. indielist's white-box method estimates its lifetime sales at roughly 2,000 to 4,000 units, with the full Boxleiter factor breakdown shown on this page rather than a single black-box figure. Within indielist's catalog of indie games mapped to their studios, publishers, and funding, Cubism can be compared against similar Casual titles and benchmarked on review counts and estimated sales.

Methodology & limitations

Sales estimates use an additive Boxleiter-derived heuristic against public Steam review counts. They are not authoritative sales data, and the fixed display range is not a statistically validated confidence interval. Actual results may fall outside it, especially for deeply discounted or bundle-heavy titles. Algorithm version v1.0. Read the exact method and validation status.

indielist estimates lifetime unit sales for Cubism at roughly 2,000 to 4,000 copies, with a median around 3,000, derived from its 58 Steam reviews using a multi-factor Boxleiter method (version v1.0). That median maps to approximately $18K in net revenue after Steam's 30% cut, regional pricing, and refunds. Unlike black-box trackers, the full calculation is shown on this page: a base review-to-sales multiplier is adjusted for release year, launch price, review sentiment, studio size, and genre, and every adjustment is listed so developers, publishers, and investors can audit exactly how the figure was reached. The range itself reflects genuine uncertainty — review-to-sales ratios vary widely between games — so indielist publishes a low, median, and high band rather than a false-precision single number, and treats free-to-play, heavily discounted, and bundle-distributed titles as having wider error margins still.

Ecosystem

Players looking for games like Cubism can compare it on indielist against semantically similar Casual titles such as Garry's Mod, Wallpaper Engine, Factorio, Balatro, ranked by shared tags and genre rather than by ad spend. On the developer side, Thomas Van Bouwel's other releases and Vanbo BV's wider catalog are one click away, letting developers benchmark where Cubism sits among a studio's body of work and how its publisher's portfolio performs. Because indielist maps studios, publishers, games, and funding into one connected graph, the same Cubism page serves three audiences at once: players hunting their next Casual game, developers studying how comparable projects were positioned and what they sold, and investors tracing which teams and labels are active in the space. A machine-readable markdown mirror of this page is published at the same path with a .md suffix for AI assistants, and its review, price, and sales-estimate figures are refreshed on a schedule rather than frozen at launch.
