Hotfix — Save Loading and Rewind Fixes

All news Players around this date Read on Steam

Hello, this is the developer of ForgeTax.

This hotfix fixes an issue loading runs with many swords and an issue where a particular input after a sword broke could remove the chance to rewind.

Save loading fixes

Fixed an issue where validation incorrectly rejected valid save files containing many swords, preventing them from loading.
Existing saves affected by this issue can now be read correctly.

Rewind after a sword breaks

Fixed an issue where pressing E immediately after a sword broke removed the chance to recover it, even when rewind was available.
Pressing E now preserves an available rewind and displays control guidance. You can still leave the anvil by right-clicking.

I am sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you to everyone who sent detailed reports, save files and information about what happened. Your help made it possible to identify and fix these issues.

I will continue reviewing reports carefully and checking fixes for unintended effects to improve the game's stability and quality.

Please update the game on Steam before playing. Thank you.
