Hey, i play on android.. so i've already play for 20.01.11 ver. and i finished it.. so i uninstall it.. and today, i download the 20.02.02 ver. from your blog.. and then i install it.. but the 'continue' button was grey, so i can't load the game.. it's so hard to start the game from the begining, cause if the next version release and i must to start over again from the begining.. do you know what is the problem?

I assume the problem was caused by uninstalling the game first. You can install the new apk file to update older game versions, it's not necessary to remove your old version first. 
I know that the save files are in the system folder of the phone, not in the game folder, so someone reported that he kept his saves even after deleting his game similar to what you did, but there is no guarantee that this works on every phone.

Ah i see.. i usually uninstall it, and then i download the new version on the same day without clear the cache.. so maybe that time when i uninstall the game then i clear the cache, and the last i download the game, the save data got lost.. coz my phone has a little storage memory left..  so sometimes i have to clear the cache or uninstall some apps..
