I launched my paid game (link) last Wednesday.

I was surprised I can't search my own title in front page.

I did a little search and found some criterias need to be fulfilled.

For new account that just launch paid game, itch.io employee will have to manually approve launched game.

But 1 week has passed by and trying to search my game title on front page search still returns nothing.

Should I be worried that my game has been overlooked during vetting process.

Don't want to be a dick since I know itch.io employee will be very busy

but how long more should I comfortably waited before emailing itch.io support?

The waiting is fine, is just not knowing is what bothers me.

Thanks.

As mentioned in many, many, many topics, your first paid project takes longer. Please wait.

I thought so too, I read somebody has waited for more than 9 days.

But that's reassuring knowing that normal waiting time is a long (without sounding sarcastic).

Thanks for the reply.
