how about you check the docs again? Also still if you can't search your game the moderator(ig)will inform the itch io staff

I read just before posting and double-checked all. And even tried to fix on my own before asking for help, made small changes on the tags/description, waited for 2-3 days, if did not helped — tried other stuff like make project not visible, then visible again. Nothing happened, so i asked for help, to prevent this issue with future projects (or if problem with account — at least i want to know what's wrong).

can you share the links of those projects which you made?

did you tried to make devlogs for your projects to get recognization?

I did not, mainly because i don't know how this works and is it worth time investment. I just participate in jams rarely. Most of projects even not uploaded on itch. Currently i'm trying to participate in pixel jam, working on project, and slightly worrying about this searching problem, because this project is most polished game i tried to make, and if the same search problem occurs — i may be sad.

ig because of not getting recognization its not getting indexed(to be true i also don't know but i had the same problem as you,but after 2 or 3 weeks my project started to come up in the search)

Thanks for sharing your experience! Hope my projects will be fixed as in your case.

hopefully your case will be seen by the staff and get your game indexed, you know there's a lot of people having the same issue like yours but after everything their games get indexed

don't worry sure it's frustrating when your hard work you have made for days weeks months doesn't get up on the search, but that doesn't mean you are bad at making things,it will surely be indexed keep trying and never give up
