How do you save progress?

[Stylon]

I started the game late last night, played for 30 minutes or so then needed to save/quit but couldn't find an option to do so. The 'logout' option in the bottom right corner says that progress won't be saved... ended up just leaving it running which isn't ideal!

Hi Stylon,
I understand it's not ideal.

The game is designed to be a length where it's quite doable in a single sitting (an hour or two at most).

Figuring out how to save all your dialog choices and then "fast-forward" through them to get to where you left off is possible, but incredibly complicated due to the way the game is written.

At this point, it's something that would be a wishlist feature if it's possible, but I'll add it my list of things to look at once more critical issues (crashes etc) are settled.

Maybe just have a warning right at the start that you can't save progress so allow yourself a couple of hours to play the game through in one sitting or something. I wouldn't have minded if I knew in advance as I would have just left starting it until I knew I had sufficient time.

That's a very good idea!
It should be very quick to add a message before the intro.
I'll add it in the next release.
Thanks for being so understanding!

I just played for 30mins and then needed to go to bed. Didn't see a warning about not being able to save on starting the thing, wouldn't have done it if I'd known.

The warning will be in the next release, which should be sometime around 2042.
