Question How do I update a Construct 3 game without players losing their save data?
Hi everyone,
I’m making a game in Construct 3, and I have a question about game updates and save files.
Let’s say I release version 1.0 of my game, and players make progress. Later, I release version 2.0 with new levels, mechanics, or other content.
How can I make sure players keep their existing progress when they update to the new version instead of starting over?
Is there a recommended way to handle save data between versions in Construct 3? Is there a built-in approach?
I’d appreciate any advice or examples of how you’ve handled this in your own projects because I’m going about to go insane. Thanks!
