The search functionality seems to be broken.

I was just about to open an issue for this but I'll just append my findings here.
Using the provided search function never yields any results. Try for example to search for "Director" which clearly should result in some findings. I went on to go to google.com to try a similar query, still 0 results.
The reasons seems to be meta data preventing the site from being indexed. The generated site contains the following tag in its <head>
section
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">
.. which according to the source code should only be included when built with HUGO_ENV != production
.
Considering that no Analytics is included either (also conditioned on a production build) I can only conclude that the site that is deployed has not been generated for production and thus will not be indexed by search engines.
FWIW the Agones docs page does not have the same problem, as the header contains
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="INDEX, FOLLOW">
An example query:
https://open-match.dev/site/search/?q=Usage
No results however it is on the first page.
