[Switch] BUG/CRASH: Story Mode Save File Lost
The update that added Summer items to the Switch (and also got rid of a lot of lag) wiped my save file, so, best look into that...

Just examined the research of a item (explosive arrow, I believe?) [mid-run], and it crashed and the save was gone upon reopening it. Meh. Don't expect I can get it back via backups or anything.

(And screw paying for $intendo's crappy cloud saving...)

---

Update: Save file couldn't be salvaged, but checked out what would happen upon opening up the same slot. Loaded my in-progress dungeon run (Frozen Heart floor 8), but no Research options or final door on floor 9 (didn't unlock it yet, but it didn't appear at all, so I guess the lack of beacon in the now-reset town made it not appear).

After that run ended, it was back to the now-reset town. No research or Atlas/etc data retained, no costumes, nothing. Atleast the 9-floors loot kinda kickstarted a few buildings...

A while later, trying to check current researches for a item mid-run crashed the game again (a fairly generic item this time). This time, the dungeon run itself was lost (as if it never occured), but it did put me back at the town as it was (post-reset with barely any progress).

Really hope they fix that damn research bug... And for the love of God, add a option to backup our saves or something, if things keep being this glitchy. (Maybe a "Copy Save" to another slot feature? C'mon, something!)

(Also don't recall having "Game saved" prompts just before entering dungeons until the town reset occured, could've used that failsafe way sooner, for obvious reasons...)
