Let me save runs in progress

[chmod1777]

If I'm in the middle of a run, and I have to stop playing, let me save my run and continue where I left off when I get back, dammit. I could suspend my game if I was on console, but not when playing on Windows.

Extremely frustrating when you are in the middle of a massively productive run and have to go do something else partway through.

You can. At least if you're still in the foyer when you end task

[CubeOvO]

I agree, you never know how long is your run before it actually ends, so it would be very helpful if you can stop midway to do something else...

[chmod1777]

I should be able to suspend/save state anywhere. There's no reason not to let me do so, it's no different from just putting down the controller and letting the the game sit idle, except I can turn off my PC while I'm gone.

Well you can always just call it a day, your Progress gets saved and you start with the next Day. Since you are not on a Timer: 'Call it' is basically the Save and Quit Option.

Even if it is a good run, it's just that ... a Run.

Oh yes there is. Cheating is a reason

I accidentally chose save and continue and forced quit and it had me at the foyer again when I resumed the game

That alone can be abused and save scummed

You're joking right? Nobody is this dim

Clearly they had a good buff or blessing or item they're not wanting to erase

Well with this answer you seem to be a bit on the dim side.

Since nobody else has figured it out:

This would have to be a one time use luxury shop item or something to prevent abuse

[chmod1777]

If people want to savescum and break the game that way, so what? How is that any worse than reading a guide that explains everything?

[Isley]

I think I read on reddit that the developer is working on it, but it's not coming soon.

I understand the desire to have this, and it would be a nice addition to people who have no intention on cheating, but it would make the game waaayy too easy for savescummers.

So, if you force quit the game before a day ends, it just doesn't save that day. You start over from scratch. Like, sure, that could be used by savescummers, by why does that matter? It's a singleplayer game, and this tactic can't let the player solve a puzzle they couldn't have solved otherwise.

Frankly, it doesn't matter if they cheat. It's a singleplayer game. Who cares? Adding a convience feature for everyone shouldnt be held back because a minority of players are going to be able to beat the game 12 in game days faster.

Plus, they if they add a save system, it would probably, y'know, actually respawn you in the room you were in?

Who cares ? It's a solo game. It won't affect your experience at all.

Right now a lot of people can't enjoy the game cause of this.
I rarely have more than one hour of play session, usually it's even closer to 30 min.
