How come people are finding my game page even though the game is not indexed yet?

Hi! The topic pretty much says it all. I released a game yesterday and it has a few views (not my own). I wonder how people are being able to find it when the only way I can do so is by pasting the link on the browser. Just curious.

Thanks!

Just because the game is not indexed within Itch doesn't mean it is hidden. The page is public, it can be indexed by any web crawler, the page is visible on your profile and if you have a dev log or if you have followers or if you have promoted on social networks, there are people who can find out about the game and access it from there, etc.
