Just updated my game to 1.1 via side load and when I opened the game, slot 1 says "New Game". Did my save get lost or is the game confused??
Viewing post in Factory Farming v1.1 Update comments
Hello Xenosous, Panic recently changed the way that side loading via the website works. It means that v1.1 will have been installed for you in a different folder than v1.0 and that you'll need to plug you Playdate into a computer to copy the save files across.
You probably also need to save a game in the new version first, such that the game's save folder gets created (e.g. if your main game is on slot 1, then start a game on slot 3).
I'll try and post some more detailed instructions later on.
Glad to hear that Xenosous! You won't be the only person affected by this change, I just posted https://timboe.itch.io/factory-farming/devlog/489649/feb-2023-sideload-changes-t... to help others.
