Game didnt save, no continue button after exiting my game

[Jewtaro]

I have never had this happen to me. Today i was playing a hard mode game with Maggy and after I quit to main menu, I saw that the continue button was grayed out as if I didnt have a game to continue.

If you accidently or purposefully activated a 2nd player even once, it won't save the run. Gotta' finish it in one sitting.

Otherwise, I can't think of any other reason it would do that- but weird bugs still do happen.

Activated a second player, you mean like co-op? I always play co-op since Rebirth came out. We left many games and resumed later with no problem. Have they changed it in Afterbirth? I havent played Afterbirth that much, But I'm pretty sure Ive resumed co-op games in Afterbirth too.

Oh! Well then, I guess I'm gonna' go on some bug hunting soon then. I hadn't played much co-op until afterbirth and oddly enough sometimes it lets us continue. Seems most of the time it just greys it out though.

I'm gonna' try a couple things, maybe quit a run after a co-op player has joined on each floor, and see if theres a pattern there... Or after a respawn item changes the character? Now that I think about it, I think some of the runs that didn't save to be resumed had Golden Baby available.. and when it's up for grabs, my partner uses it. Maybe using a special baby might void the run..?

This is really weird though, sometimes we can resume the run, other times not. I don't see any obvious reasons it didn't save, and It never happened in Rebirth.

I know right? I dont remember this ever happening and I've been playing only co-op ever since Rebirth first came out.

Happened again. And it doesnt count towards the streak.
