Hello, i just uploaded a demo and it won't show up anywhere in the site (search, newest games section, etc.). The URL is working tho and the page is online. I've just checked my project's page and i'm sure that i didn't set anything to private.

Its my project: https://smnmhmdy.itch.io/dim-demo

Can i know whats wrong? thanks.

Nothing is wrong. Your game has some paid content, so it probably landed in the approval queue. Should show up in a few more hours.

Yup, its up now. thanks for the reply

What engine your game uses?

Irrlicht engine

The game keeps disappearing from the site, it's currently the first one in the hottest horror games page in the gamejolt, not even in the most recent page of itch.io. Can you do something about it? looks like it disappears every time i make a change to the game's page or release a new build. it's not there for like 30 hours now!

It looks like you flagged the game as "Has sensitive content". This hides it from the default view unless the viewer has opted into viewing that material.

But it was there before, i tried incognito mode and it was there, but not anymore. However i'm gonna unflag the sensitive content, because all it has is jumpscares and loud sounds.

Edit - Ok I tried unflagging "Has sensitive content" and it worked, I think. Thanks!

Hello,

My game has not shown up in any search results either and it's been a few days.

It does not have, nor to I have it flagged for content. It's still not showing up in search or no matter how many pages I go back as well as scrolling all the way down/applying filters. 

My game is a paid game but it seems maybe the review should be done now?

Please help, my game is called Why Chicken? Why? if someone could test searching it for me?

Thanks.

Yea i just searched it and it didn't show up. Make sure you published it correctly tho.

Yea, I'm not really sure what's wrong. I felt I have everything right as far as publishing it and what-not. I've double checked a lot of stuff but it still never shows up in search. Here is the link to my game page but I'm not sure if that will help you. I've already had the people I gave keys out to be able to download it & one even contributed $4.00 so I'm confused on the problem. Here's my game page...https://number77.itch.io/why-chicken-why Thanks
