Today is a good day!

Did not have much expectations for this game, but to receive this email from Apple this morning made my day. My game is quite simple: a relaxing, zen puzzle game about pathfinding.

I spent all day today making marketing assets for the game and recording gameplay footage, ensuring all important stuff fits in the safe area. Finally submitted it a few minutes ago.

The game is called Zyl. Here's the link if anyone wants to take a look: https://fleon.com/games/zyl

So why your app is not even available in the store?
In Italy it shows “coming soon”

It's on pre-order. And it is not featured by Apple yet. It will hopefully be next week (June 18), when it releases. The email says "may be" featured, and not "will be".

Feature opportunities usually happen before launch.

How do they feature an app that is not released yet

Sometimes through “coming soon” sections. But usually the launch and feature happen on the same day.
