Hi folks, my game does not show up when I search it. It´s called "Grime & Gaslight" https://nekros-arts.itch.io/grime-gaslight. Even when I search for my profil, it says "0 projects". When I visit it then the page shows up. I´ve already checked the page "Getting indexed on Search & Browse". Furthermore none of my 3 devlogs are shown as well.

Here´s what I checked:

-the project has files and the page has got a cover pic

-project is public and it´s neither unlisted from search nor new downloads are disabled

-there is one wallpaper-file, that was downloaded once (One user suggested projects needs to have at least one download to be indexed)

-I waited two days, to give Itchio some time to review it

-NSFW is untagged for my game. I hope this is the right one? (pic below)

If you got any idea what I could change, please comment. If the game is still is review quere, I´ll wait patiently, but would be glad to know if this is the case. Thanks in advance!

If you just set the minimum price, the weekend may have delayed the indexing. Please give it another day, then contact support.

(As an aside, that is correct: projects only appear in searches if they have files to download or play online. That's because people are looking for games they can play. Special situations like preorders are another story. But you've uploaded game archives in the mean time.)

alright, thanks for your answer. Do you mean the game builds by "archives"?

Yes.
