How to delete save data?
I also encountered the bug where my save file glitches, and im sooo fine with deleting my progress to play again because i love the game. however, i can't find where the save file is in local files from steam. Any advice for how to find that save file? maybe what the file type is?

First of all, I'm really sorry you had that save data issue. It was something we really did our best to avoid but it surfaced at launch and we scrambled to get it fixed. I'm glad you're ok with resetting your progress but I'm sorry it happened regardless.

Now, on to the solution.

Because Steam will typically be running SteamCloud and will look to replace your save file even if you delete it, you need to turn off SteamCloud temporarily first.

You can do this by opening your Steam>Settings> Cloud and turning it off from there.

Once that's done you need to delete this folder: C:\Users\(your windows username)\AppData\LocalLow\OTA IMON\Zet Zillions

You can just delete the whole folder, don't worry, it will rebuild.

Now start a new game and play through the tutorial and after you close the app you will have a new local save. You can then turn SteamCloud back on if you like. When you open ZZ it will prompt you to keep or replace your local file with the Steamcloud one, so be sure to keep your local file.


I hope this solves the issue for you. If there's any more troubles please let me know, I'm usually hanging around here in some form or another.
