I'm so sorry for what you're going through. The recent restrictions on platforms like Itch.io and Steam are undoubtedly a huge blow to independent developers, especially when there are no clear rules or predictability.
Still, I want you to know that I deeply appreciate the work and dedication you've put into this project. I've worked in game development (though not in this field) and I know how complex and exhausting it can be.
I'm glad to hear you don't plan to cancel the game. Promoting it on other platforms is a brave step, and I'm sure sooner or later you'll find a larger community that appreciates your vision.
I wish you all the luck in this process and hope that the Steam wishlist grows quickly. You have my support and that of many others who believe in your project. Keep it up, your efforts are not in vain!
