No savegames?

[Viridium]

Hi! Started to play a little on my own to get a feel for the game when I'm gonna play it with Friends. After playing for 50 Minutes I found no option to save and because even the exit button didn't offered a saving promt I guessed it would be automatically saving.

Well after rebooting the game there is no option to continue, only to start a new game.

Has this game seriously no save option?

Hi Viridium,

The game does have an auto-save on level complete currently (most levels run in the 45 - 60 minute range, so you were probably close to the end :( ) and we're working on checkpoint saves as I type this. Sorry for the confusion!

Thanks,
Talarian, Lead Programmer

Oh, that's very unfortunate. But thank you for the information.

So some kind of save feature beside playing through is planed? I guess it would be the first and last time to play this game with friends when the game crashes halfway through the game and all progress is lost :/

Correct, the current plan is saving when you pass a Destiny Stone (including running back later to save at will). We're still actively working on it, ideally for the next major patch.

This would be most welcome as I am sure I am not alone in needing to have a save feature, if for no other reason than sometimes real life gets in the way of gaming time.

I thought the Godstones save the game so after doign the sneaking on bandits part, which Paladin cant seem to do, I quit for night and found no way to continue. Now I have to start all over again, ugghh. I like the game and wonder when the save will work for check points and not the whole level.

Saves should exist. The Destiny Stones do activate a checkpoint save. On the main menu there should be a bank of save games on the right hand side.

I see my character but the button under shows New Campaign. When I click that it takes me to screen to pick a character again. Is this going to start all over? Also how do we rename the campaign, cause when I started I could not click on pencil icon or box to change it. I like the game so far though :-)

Ok it appears that my first save file I was not able to change the name so its called New Campaign. I picked it and it loads at the last Godstone. When I click on Start a New Campaign on the the left it allowed me to change the name, so Im guessing we have to set the name before picking a character.

Hmm, odd, you should be able to rename the campaign when reloading it. I'll log a bug on our side and investigate. Thanks for letting us know!

You guys are great Takarian and what you have done is awesome. I hope you make more games with this because 3 episodes will just not be enough :-) I love how active you are in the forums and how passionate you are for your game.
