no, the progress and stuff is stored somewhere else, where that is,? i have no clue. I have this problem with a bunch of different games on itch so i'm used to it at this point and havn't had any problems fixing it this way.
Huh. I'm also on pc, but it's unavailable right now so I'm playing on my phone. Anyway, what I'm doing if there's an update is I take the save file off and put it aside for now. I tried to have a clean start, but I realized the saved file couldn't be removed because it would just create a new one; I even deleted the game, but it still returned (I don't know if some people have the same thing as me).
Back to what I'm saying. After I take the saved file and put it aside. I download the newly updated version, take the saved file, and put it where it always was in the updated game. I then delete the old updated version once everything is working in the updated version and if it has my progress saved in there.
That's what I've been doing on my pc every time my Gmail notifies me of the updates and I'll just do this to have the updated version.
I honestly didn't try to open the new version of the game whenever I had the updated version, or maybe I tried it, and it doesn't transfer my saves. My memory sucks. There's a chance I'll forget something I just heard or forget what I'm just thinking right now.
Anyway, I played this game for the first time on my pc. Maybe I did open the updated version, and it didn't transfer my saves because why would I search on how to?
A possible chance is I didn't open the game and just went to the files to check and saw there's no save file. The reason why maybe I searched on how to transfer.
I don't know anymore. I might have a problem with my memory because all I can remember is searching on Google before. 🥲
