My game assets does not appear in search

Hi, 

I published my first game assets  here on the itch.io website. 

Apparently I configured everything correctly, but I can't find it in the searches. I tested it on another computer, it also didn't show up, it's only possible by entering the link directly.

I wanted to know if everything is alright? I searched the entire site and I didn't find anything that talks about it

thank you very much in advance

I see you published the project about a day ago. Considering this is your first paid project, it needs to go through some additional approval by an admin, which delays a project being indexed a bit longer.

I’d suggest to wait maybe a couple of more days. Once this one is approved, your future projects should get past this review faster.

In the meantime, your project is public, and users can access it directly with the link. That means you can already start advertising this game on external social media.

You can read more about this on Getting indexed on Search & Browse.

Now I understood, I was thinking that it would appear as soon as it was published on the platform. I will wait until the project is approved.

Thanks for the answer

The rules of this category, that you're prompted to read twice before being allowed to post (and then confirm that you read them) point you at the relevant FAQ section, in case you need more details.

I'm still waiting to be approved.

My game assets still don't show up in the search.

I don't understand, it seems that others are being authorized and mine is not yet. =(

All right, I gave it a bump.
