Game not indexed on search or "new" after 12 days.

Hi Itch.io,

Kindly advise why my game is still not indexed on search? I've been told it's because a moderation team needs to approve it but it's been 12 days now and still no feedback / progress. Support is not replying to my email either.

Two-week review times are not unusual nowadays for a first-time paid game. Sorry about that.

Ah I see. Thanks, I'll exercise some patience.

Might be worth updating the https://itch.io/docs/creators/getting-indexed page as it still shows 1 day for first time paid products which will lead to a lot of confusion and frustration.

Also quick one. When review takes this long, will I still get some visibility on "New" seeing that it's technically 2 weeks old now.

I submitted a pull request to change that page a while ago. And it depends if other games are approved before yours. The burst from being at the top of new releases doesn't last long anyway. You should make yourself and your game visible in other ways as well.
