Which Genres Have Ruled Steam? A New View
GameDiscoverCo's newsletter presents a new way of sizing the Steam market by assigning each game that has grossed over $1 million only one genre and one subgenre tag.
- Action games dominate Steam's revenue landscape, accounting for 58.37% of all lifetime earnings for titles exceeding $1 million.
- Role-Playing (17.11%), Strategy (13.97%), and Simulation (9.76%) follow Action as the primary revenue-generating genres on the platform.
- Arena Shooters generate nearly 19% of all Action revenue, though this segment is heavily concentrated among a few evergreen titles.

The Expressions of Colours
Zammitto's paper, presented at the DiGRA 2005 conference, examines how colour communicates meaning in digital games and argues that game designers should use colour deliberately rather than intuitively.
- Colour meaning in games rests on three overlapping layers, innate, personal, and cultural, so designers must account for both universal associations and regional differences such as red signifying weddings in China versus white in Western weddings.
- Colour-vision deficiency affects roughly one in twelve men, a significant concern because most players are male, making accessible palette choices important for designers.
- The paper argues that game designers should use colour deliberately rather than intuitively, applying its meanings to character costuming, interface elements, and environmental palettes.
