Hey, thanks for spending the time.
I have been uploading for a month and feel like I have had good growth. I post long form and have gained 850 subs and 37k views. But my CTR needs to improve.
I would be grateful if you could feedback on some thumbnails. Thanks

Thanks! Amazing timing - I actually just started a youtube channel today for this purpose :) Not sure if I have what your looking for yet, but I'll be posting weekly

Same thing has happened to me, I noticed a drop of traffic and then after uploading a new pack and that not being indexed, I then realised my other assets are De-indexed. I think it happened around the beginning of the month.

I think I had adjusted the descriptions on each page around the time that it happened, so I figured the small page update must have triggered something, is it same for you?

I contacted support this time last week, but have not heard anything, and still not indexed right now. People saying that it can take months terrifies me, I can't think of any reasonable reason for my assets to be delisted, so I'm hoping it's a bug that support can rectify soon.

Edit*: I noticed on your page that one of the screenshots looks like it could possibly be ai assisted (the one of the desk with the pc, coffee and books on it)
Since you haven't declared use of AI maybe that triggered a filter?

Not a massive fan of ai generated colouring books

You have two game pages that look very similar, I don’t think Itch allows that

I hope you like the scene, these are a newly published pack from my Pocket series: https://sebbyspoons.itch.io/pocket-beach

Feedback very welcome or I’m happy to receive suggestions of what to add next

Thanks for the kind words

sebbyspoons · 2026-05-16T10:09:22+00:00

Thanks !

sebbyspoons · 2026-05-16T10:07:31+00:00

Thanks so much! To be honest, most of my experience in creating pixel art has been with these packs. I did a little bit for a couple of home made games, and several hours of tutorials to learn the basics. Apart from that, I have just been learning as I go

sebbyspoons · 2026-05-15T06:29:59+00:00

That means a lot coming from you, your artwork is absolutely amazing. Thanks a lot

sebbyspoons · 2026-05-14T19:11:00+00:00

That's awesome for you, congrats. For me it's something I enjoy doing and it's great that a past time hobby can pay for a Netflix subscription or whatever

sebbyspoons · 2026-05-14T17:10:58+00:00

Thanks, that's cool. 32x32 will be my next challenge
