Your game is 88 days old. You have four devlogs. Estimated number of "approved" devlogs: 0-1.
After some digging, the number seems to be 0. Now, is there anything unusual about this number? Nope.
I checked on the game behind you in a tag combination. It has the same ranking in recent as you. And an aproved major devlog will put you on top of recent again. It has 4 devlogs since then. And about 10 devlogs before.
Go check yourself, how many of the recent games are new games and how many are there because of a devlog. There are more devlogs than games, yet the majority of games there is new. Conclusion: an approved major devlog is a rarity.
Also, you have 80 followers on Itch. That is a lot for a new dev, especially for your subgenre. And after looking at your patreon, what are you even complaining about?! Seriously. You are very successful. Did you ever have a look at numbers of other developers? Do it. Please do it.
