In game.yaml, public_game is set to false. I then used game/register on the telnet server with a Coder roled bit. There is a spot (I can’t remember where exactly) where Ares provided instructions say that your game will not show up on the list of games on AresCentral unless it is set to public.

Check to be sure that your public_game option is set to false (a boolean) and not 'false' or "false" (text strings). YAML is particular about data types.
Editing the option with the “Game Directory Information” screen under Admin->Setup in the web portal rather than the raw config file will ensure that this gets set correctly.
I did just test to ensure that ticking off the “Public Game” button on the directory screen hides the game from AresCentral, as intended.
As far as I know, you configure whether the game is public or not from the webportal, in your Game Information:

It has a check box you can set for public games. If it is not checked, your game shouldn’t show on that list.

(edit: I was too slow, Faraday already answered your question).
