...The "demo" version of your game has no files at all. It can't show up in searches according to our rules.

The full version only has a text file as  a placeholder. You also just published it two days ago, and it's the weekend.

Having two separate game pages just to offer a demo version isn't recommended, either, according to the quality guidelines.

Thank you for the response.

My game is played in the browser, it's intentionally not downloadable. 

The demo isn't discoverable (prohibited in public settings), I have only the full release which I'd like to be discoverable.

Unfortunately, this "only 2 days rule" isn't working as I tested with previous builds. At one point I had the demo, and only it, publicly available (also web-build) for months and it never appeared anywhere on itch.io. 

It's certainly not going to happen after only two days on a weekend.

Thank you for the clarification. I hope the game will appear some time :)

That being said, I'd still like to see and use different options of supporting itch.io besides rev share. 

The value of this platform for indie devs is hard to be overestimated.
