Highlights

  • Safer saves: the game now completes a safe local commit before Steam Cloud sync. Rolling backups, corrupted-save recovery, and an explicit local/cloud conflict choice help prevent silent overwrites.

  • Legacy save support: V1 saves can migrate to the current format. If a conflict occurs, both local and cloud candidates are retained.
