Well, it sure happened, I saved over my game while trying to work on the ‘save-anywhere’ special item. I typed ‘save’ when I launched the game, so the game promptly saved over my file without any fanfare or confirmation. This is a big issue now - I have to find a way to rebuild my save as it was if I want to continue working on the game - and it will be a big issue in the future, players just typing SAVE and losing all their progress isn’t something I want. I’ll have to figure something out. Probably a second save that you can RESTORE if you mistakenly save over your principal one…

  • Time spent on the project so far: 105 hours

  • Currently working on: Saving woes

  • % of the game complete according to my current planning: 38.72%
