It's been a couple of weeks since the last update so I just wanted to check in and see how many people were still encountering save file issues. I've noticed a significant drop in the number of emails I've received regarding lost files, so I'm hoping the new backup system really is doing its job.
I wanted to give a shout-out to Evan Todd, a fellow Columbus developer. I spoke with him at a meetup earlier this month and he originally suggested that I implement the backup system. I was so caught up in trying to figure out why files were being lost in first place that this didn't even cross my mind.
Evan is also the creator of Lemma, an awesome first-person parkour adventure game. Give it a look :)
