Problems with glitches - there goes 10 hours of "roguelike" play

I understand this game is still being worked on, but I ran into a terrible bug that seems, with my limited understanding of coding, to register me at different levels in different zones.

So if I go BACK into the yelling mountains from the wasteland desert, it might transport me and strip me of all CHARACTER progress made in the wasteland desert, but MAP progress and bosses killed all remain constant.
What a frustrating bug, to turn from lvl 8 back to lvl 4.  And then realize too late..... and then effectively lose that save file because I was dumb and hit "exit" before I went to copy data files.....

So let's talk about the meta and mechanics a little bit. Which I believe stems from my 10hr save dissapearing into smoke.

PLEASE, add a goddamn multisave until your game gets less buggy. And consider adding some mechanics to speed up the menial early game between lvl 1-3. I'm only on my 10th run and I'm sick of the early game.  I've played ToME, DF, QoC and Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead to death but can't stand the early game in soulash. 

Thanks for considering! Awesome game! I'm just grumpy right now, I think. XD

Hey samjac0. Sorry for the character bug, I'll look into this. Was there any odd thing happening or you noticed at some point that you went back a couple of levels and your abilities and items were different?

I'm only on my 10th run and I'm sick of the early game.

Can you elaborate on what makes you feel that way? Or why it gets better on level 4 for you?

many games like tome don't have a multisave. and just like in tome if i want to backup my character. i can do it manually, i dont need someone to hold my hand to do it for me, you knew the game is in beta and could easily back up your save files. I've never had a problem with tome losing my save but i still backup my lategame characters. Also, if your earlygame is taking you too long you aren't following a good enough route. I can easily make it to level 7 in about an hours time. level 1 to 3 takes me maybe 15 minutes.

could ya make a guide cause im not doing nearly as well
