My kingdom for a quicksave (Whole Lotta Jammming)

[pjt]

It's a kind of a puzzle that I had to check a walk through. And not because I it was too complex, or I got stuck, but just to check if there's a solution I missed. But nope.
Because I can maneuvre the mines, sometimes a couple of times without getting blown up, but this one is getting really frustrating. And after an hour of trying getting blonw up while placing the jammers in the bomb alley made me search the internet if there was a quicksave/quickload option like in Portal.
I'm still hoping to finish the game without cheats, but it's getting harder to resist.

Also, to prevent making puzzles easier, I think saving (were it to ever happen) should be limited to outside a puzzle.

Then pause should be eliminated too because it's identical to a save. It just uses more electricity while saving disk space. A pause (save) just makes the game more convenient not easier. Perhaps there should be an achievement for how much discomfort you endure while completing a puzzle? Just joking :)

Speaking of PAUSE - you don't even need it, you can just minimize the game and it will pause itself on the background and remove the load from CPU/GPU.

Pausing / autosave is different from an explicit save, because it doesn't just save at "safe" spots in the game, but all the time.
