Important regarding save games!


We were forced to rewrite parts of the saving and loading system to fix bugs related to it and add new features; thus, old saves are not compatible with this version. You will not see unsupported save files in your list of games to load. We apologise for the inconvenience!

In the future, if you want to avoid this problem, you can always turn off automatic updates of the game through Steam and wait to update until you are confident that you won't need to load any save files anymore.

We will do our best to inform you when new updates break old save files.
