Problem with Steam

Hello again,
so I'm trying to find a game on Steam, but I have problems with searching for it, because of one thing I cannot find anymore:
I cannot find a way anymore to search for games on the Steam database made by a certain company.
I already searched on Google, with absolutely no results, Steam has not even a TRACE of a FAQ, and when I asked my question elsewhere, I either get an answer for a completely different question or even get outright ignored.
And I know that I can search for games on the Steam database made by a certain company, because I could do that in the past, so why the hell cannot I do it NOW?!
So yeah, I would like to know how I can search for games on the Steam database made by a certain company, if I don't know the name of the game I'm searching for, but very well know the company that made the game.
Thanks in advance!

In the bottom right on the sidebar you'll see info about the publisher and developer. You can click that text to bring up a search for games made by that developer/publisher.

Thanks, but that requires me to go to the game's page, something that I cannot do if I forgot the name of the game, but still remember the name of the developer company.
So how can I search for games developed by a company without having access to a game's page? I know I did that once before, but I cannot replicate that anymore.

Surely this game developer has developed another game you know of, yes? I would just search for a different game by that developer and then you'll be at the page where you can search for the rest of their work in no time.

Well, there is no guarantee for that, sadly.
Hence why I'm trying to remember that method, since I see that method as "idiot-proof".

http://store.steampowered.com/search/?developer=CyberConnect2%20Co.%20Ltd.

Here's the search. Just use it. See "developer" in the url? You can change that to "publisher" as well. That's the search. This is idiot-proof already. It's just that in order to see the page, you have to have clicked on some developer or some publisher. It's the normal Steam search with one extra parameter in the url.

Thanks. I couldn't find the game immidiately, but after tweaking the name further by adding combinations of "Co." and "Ltd." and the like, I finally found it.
Now here is a rethorical question: Why do companies include needless additions like "Co." and "Ltd." to the company's name nowadays?
