Question about "Release status"

Does the "release status" field for a game have any sort of impact on visibility (search/etc), or is it only for tagging/informational purposes? 

We're in kind of a weird liminal state between "released" and "in development" for a game so I'd like to make sure there's no problem switching to the latter if we decide to do major work on the game similar to an Early Access model. I seem to remember something about this when doing research about how search visibility works, but I think I'm maybe mixing this up with the "it won't show up in search unless there's at least one download" thing since it looks like "In Development" is also intended for Early Access. Any info would be appreciated!

The value of release status does not impact visibility. It will cause you game to be listed under the appropriate filter for release status though.
