Initially, my game was unlisted because I wasn't ready for anyone to see it. But then playtesting started and I set it to public but there were still lots of reports from people that could not find the game via the search.
I think this has been broken for quite a long time. Because there have been many times where I myself cannot find it using the search.
Any change MAY trigger your project to be placed on the manual review list.
The algorithm that determines this is secret, but one day you can make changes, even upload a new version, and your game will still be indexed. Another day you might fix a typo in the text, and it will be sent for manual revision.
The time it takes to be reviewed and reindexed varies greatly, from a few hours to weeks (also remember that the staff doesn't work weekends). If a significant amount of time passes, you can explain your situation and ask the moderator if they can expedite the process.
By the way, this forum is answered by the community; the staff does not read or respond here.
