Ok, so how can I use/improve tags to make my game update be visible? What's  "the actual tag system"? I'm using  game tags and I'm searching through "Select a tag",  not "Search for games and creators", which is not the best choice for tag search.  

I've just tested it again using "nsfw" tag in the "Search a tag", narrowed the search to 7 days and 1 day - my game is not showing up (it has "nsfw" tag). Two other games, which were posted 1 day ago and 1 hour ago are on the list.  So what can be done about this?

That's what I meant: the way you can select tags when browsing for games or directly. Speaking of which: when browsing the adult tag, your game is on the first page of results, if all the way to the bottom. When browsing for NSFW, it's on the second. I couldn't say why it's not working for you.

I remember my game being on top after the previous update a couple of months ago and it moved down as other games and updates got released by other creators. Has something changed and newly updated games don't appear on top of "Most recent" and "New&Popular" and stay at the bottom?

Maybe an updated game is given less of a boost than a brand new one, I don't know. But it's also that a lot of new games come to Itch.io all the time. Older games also bob up and down in search results, so that everyone gets a chance. Yours may make it to the top again later, too.
