So I finished the first build. There weren’t any major errors but I was wondering why there aren’t any Auto saves in the VN.

Ah, you know, at some point during development, I removed it because it was 1) creating lots of saves that risked unintentionally becoming part of my builds, and 2) I didn't see the point of them. I could probably easily switch it back on. Can you tell me what the autosave function means to you? What value does it add, how does it improve playing the game? I just can't remember ever using it myself in any of the VNs I've played, so I figured it couldn't be very important.

AutoSaves is important to me be cause I sometimes forget to save and it makes saves everyone hundred or so lines. Also for some reason in Ren’Py, AutoSaves have a much lower chance of being corrupted when updating a VN.

No, really? I see! Well, then I will look at reactivating it, thank you for telling me! :)
