Question: Is the new build compatible with the previous save games?

re: v278 

 

Reason I ask is that on booting my saved games I get 'loading' then a black screen  ;(

No matter how many times cats fight, there's always plenty of kittens.

It's best practice to never carry over save games when testing beta builds

 

Delete them and start again

    Yep, seems to be. Took about 30 seconds for my old game to load after I got the black screen with the 'Loading...' message though.

    Why even risk the instability? Just start a new game and be done with it? It's not like you're going to lose a lot of progress, since the beta demo is pretty short.

    They seem to be but they also are still effected by any bugs the old version had the new one doesn't.  I would take Sensuki's advice, delete and start over.

    Okay, thanks guys.

    No matter how many times cats fight, there's always plenty of kittens.

    It would probably be a good idea for the coders to just check the save is made with the current version (ie: save version == game version).  Would avoid false bug reports.
