Deleting a save?
I know you can reset your progress for the awakening bit, but it doesn't delete any of your save files. After beating the game a few times, I wanted to get rid of some of the left-over saves that I made, but there doesn't seem to be a way of doing this.

There is no way to delete the files other than manually.
  • First, you have to turn off Steam Cloud Save feature. To do it you have to right-click on the game in Steam, select properties and uncheck "Steam Cloud" in one of the tabs there.
  • Then - if you're using Windows - you have to navigate to
    C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\scriptwelder studio\Don't Escape_ 4 Days in a Wasteland
    , replacing
    USERNAME
    with your Windows username. There are your save files!
Sorry for this inconvenience!

It's really not a big deal, but I just figured I'd mention it since no one else had. Thanks for the reply!

Just want to throw my voice on the pile - I too looked for a way to delete some of my save files. I created a lot of save file bloat initially, and I like the menu being neater with just the saves I'm currently using. Thanks for the heads-up :)

Thanks for all the opinions, I might end up adding a "delete" button in game. For now you have to do it manually - thanks for your understanding :)
