Save game back up system
After hearing the hardships and working with you to discover this issue, we have implemented a back up system that will keep a copy of the saved file in a different folder. No need to enable this it will run quietly in the background as you play. To access the save files enter into your file explorer (copy and paste): %localappdata%\GardenLife\Saved\SaveGames To access the backup save files enter into your file explorer (this will be dependent on where you game installation folder is located: “your_game_installation_folder”\GardenLife\Backups and the easiest way to get to the game installation folder is by right clicking the game in your steam library, Manage > Browse local files. When replacing make sure you take note of the save slot you’d like to replace and keep the file names first part. Remove all numbers after “arz”. For example to place the first slot in garden life save I would: Close the game entirely. 1. Enter %localappdata%\GardenLife\Saved\SaveGames into my file explorer.
2. Locate the file to replace this in the back up system.
There are multiple back ups of each save game, you may have to try several before locating the one that has the correct save.
3. Copy the back up file and paste into the folder:
%localappdata%\GardenLife\Saved\SaveGames
4. Delete the broken save file and rename the newly added file to match the broken save. (right click on the desired file and select ‘rename’)
Launch the game and check the save slot edited.
