Save File Location

this is for the html build, but i lose my saves when i close my browser. i would like to know where they save to so i can manipulate saves as necessary, or maybe if there is a save/load from file option

Developer

The game's saves are stored within the browser's Web Storage database, specifically localStorage. If you're in Chrome, then with the game open you can press F12, go to the Applications tab, and then all your saves will be listed there.

im trying to find the save data on the window one and i cant find it? is it located some where hidden in the application version?

Developer

The Windows version is just the HTML game in a wrapper, so you would probably need some sort of tool that can access the localStorage within Chromium. 

If your intent is to copy or delete a save, I am actually looking into adding it directly to the game (engine permitting).

okay thanks!

appending to this: for some reason, the save data shown in local storage seems to not be current even just after saving. also seems to only show a certain number of items. i might fiddle with it later unless you have more suggestions

There are only 3 available save slots in the game, so you may only see 3 saves in the folder. I'm not sure why they don't seem to be current, though. How old do the files seem to be compared to when you save? Do you still have the game open when you are looking at the files? 


UPDATE: The game has since undergone changes in the way saves work.
