Don't know if it helps, but I'm using BlueStacks 5 android emulator on my PC. Also, I noticed there were some changes to chapter 1, so more than likely I'll start over regardless. :-)

Thanks and I'm sorry for the inconvenience. So far I haven't had much luck finding a resolution to this. It may be something with the emulator or I changed something in the coding between versions that somehow made the saves incompatible (though I don't think I did anything too wild). If you're on a PC, though, you should be able to play and run the PC version and I haven't heard of the issue there.
