Game Not Showing Up, Even After One Week

Hi,I launched my first game a week ago and noticed it hasn't been indexed or appears in searches yet. I've reviewed the documentation, which mentions a 1-2 day review period for new free games, but it's now been seven days. I've also tried searching by the full name among other steps recommended. Understanding this is my first release, I'm open to the process taking time but would appreciate any guidance or a status update to ensure I haven't overlooked anything.

Your game is indexed. I cannot tell since when, but make sure to not search for it while being logged out.

2 hours into posting the question, it was thankfully indexed.I believe the mods were responsible.If so, thank you, mods!

Difficult, the moderators have already clarified it several times, they are community moderators and do not have access to indexing games, the most they can do is speed up the process and whenever they do it they notify in the post, I have never seen them speed up a process without notifying.

So I'm very much inclined to believe that it was simply a coincidence, especially since the time for first games is usually around a week, look what a coincidence.
