Steam Cloud

[Gairaku]

Is this game have Steam Cloud? I have two computer. But Steam Cloud is no use. I can't sync save data by Steam Cloud. How can I use that?

It's WIP!

seems a little "false advertisingish" to state it on the store page.

Steam Cloud is set up to sync the saved game and prefs.cfg file.

Gairaku, are you using Windows, Mac, or Linux?

[Archlich]

Wait, it syncs the pref.cfg accross machines? Doesn't that sound like a terrible idea? Since prefs.cfg contains screen resolution and other machine specific options?

[dphrygian]

Yes, I'd prefer not to sync screen resolution. But the user generally does want to sync other preferences such as key bindings, invert Y, and language.

The proper solution would be to make separate configuration files for portable and non-portable preferences. But this is how it works now.

Having issue with saves not syncing between PC and Steam Deck

Eldritch's cloud saves are different for each OS. If your PC is running Windows and your Steam Deck is using the native Linux build, that would explain saves not syncing. You might be able to switch Steam Deck to emulating the Windows build, and that might sync the cloud saves.

Edit: I think I misspoke. I'm reviewing the Steam Cloud setup now and I'm wondering if I didn't update the settings correctly when I moved save files in the big build 400 update. In any case, I wouldn't expect Windows and Steam Deck cloud saves to be compatible, though.
