"On Sale" price filter shows some bundled items but not others?

My paid Playdate title Playtime is in a month-long 50%-off co-op bundle which started a couple days ago.

When I view the Playdate tag, and then filter by "On Sale," I see various individual Playdate titles on sale for a %, as well as some "In Bundle" titles.

But my app is not listed under On Sale. (It does come up for the Playdate tag,  and if you find it there it does show the expected blue "In Bundle" flag.)

What determines being listed under"On Sale?" Is it a human-curated thing and just takes time? Should I do something different as manager of the bundle?

Thanks in advance!

(Note: out of the bundle I only expect  my one game to appear under On Sale: I understand they the other 3 titles will not show up there without some digging—because they are categorized as Tools rather than Games. It's possible they could change that categorization, since these are fun console apps for end users, not developer tools. In any case, if my title can be found and that informs people about the bundle, that helps those other devs too!)

Theory:

The On Sale page for the Playdate page lists 28 titles at the moment.

But when I go through ALL Playdate games, I count around 31 individual sales, not counting a bunch of others in bundles.

So I'm thinking the On Sale view simply doesn't display behind the first page.
