Revenue divided by time is a depressing metric for anyone who starts trying to monetize their hobby, but that's not the point. Do your fun project because it's fun. If you make enough to cash out on Steam, get yourselves some actual trophies. Or pizza. Trying to make money will force you to do all the depressing capitalist things the big studios do, and then it's not fun anymore.
