If you saw so many topics that talk about the topic, didn't you see their responses?


If your game is not indexed when you publish it, it is because it has entered the manual review pile.

There is nothing you can do to avoid it, not all games go through manual review. The algorithm that decides whether a game should go through manual review or not is secret to prevent bad actors from taking advantage.

The people who review DO NOT work on weekends.

The time is variable, usually a few hours or days (but business days), but can be 2 or even 3 weeks.

If your game is still not indexed after a couple of weeks, only then can it be considered that something happened.

Before that, you will be asked to wait.

The options are:

- for some reason the game was lost in the review and the moderator can help you.

-The game was manually quarantined or ineligible to be indexed. In which case, the only alternative is to contact support.

I'm really sorry,  I  didn't pay attention to their game's release date and when their posts were made. I was just worried about my game. I think I posted too early but I don't know how Itch.io works, I am new to the platform. Thank you for telling me about the process
