I think that the itch algorithum is very unkown , i have recently released a game and done alot marketing on it posted alot of things in itch but it never promoted my game but abruptly last day my game got around 1000 views(964) that was insane , from getting barely 1-2 views a day to about a 1000 views in a day man i am shocked.
You can't really rely on itch.io's search feature. The site is optimized for browsing by tags. There's been plenty of threads in the forums discussing the issues with search results if you're interested
Edit: It looks like your project hasn't been indexed yet. This is fairly common for new sellers, but I'm not sure why it would take so long. See Getting Indexed for more info
I would email staff about it. See Support & contact
I told you what I think. Your setup looks suspicous. You have an 18 months long "sale".

Why you are delisted, I have no clue. You sure you were indexed to begin with? First time "paid" projects usually take longer to be put on the index.
And can you see in your analytics where your traffic comes from or not?
Because you’re lying about the true price of the product.
If you publicly set a price, just to let yourself yell “100% SALE” at all times, that is deceptive pricing.
Bro if you will see the game you will notice that the game may be about 4-5 dollar of price but i am giving it for free because i want my game to reach a wider audience also one can barely find a free rage game like that..... its actual price may be about 4-5 dollars but yeah if society doesn't want free games i am removing the sale
