Hi!
I checked today—nothing has changed; the games are still missing from the search results.

I’ve been experiencing something very similar with itch.io.
I completely understand that reviewing and publishing games can take time, especially with the amount of submissions they receive. The problem is when developers are left waiting for weeks or even months with little to no communication.
In my case, I’ve contacted support multiple times without receiving a response, and I eventually had to open a forum thread just to try to get some clarification. My game is essentially ready to be promoted, but I’m currently stuck because of the publishing/review situation.
What worries me is seeing other developers reporting that their games have been waiting since April or even earlier. At that point, I think it becomes a broader issue rather than an isolated case.
It’s particularly frustrating because itch.io has historically been such an important platform for indie developers. Games like Vampire Survivors started there, and that’s exactly the kind of opportunity that makes platforms like itch.io valuable to small developers.
I really hope they manage to improve the process soon. I’d much rather keep my game on itch.io than be forced to move elsewhere simply because I can’t get through the review process.
