Hello alchemists! As some of you may unfortunately know, we're still experiencing some issues with save files being lost. We made yet a few more changes that might solve this problem but, since our main goal is to not have anyone lose their progress, this time we implemented a backup system while we still investigate the cause of the problem. If you're playing on version 0.7.7 or higher and face this issue, please follow these steps:

• 1. Copy one of the most recent ..._profile.save files (every one has a timestamp on their name) from one the following folders, based on your operating system:
  • Windows: [your username here]\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Alchemia- Creatio Ex Nihilo\archived_files (AppData is a hidden folder, but in most systems Windows Explorer shows hidden folders by default)
  • OSX: ~/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/Alchemia- Creatio Ex Nihilo/archived_files
  • Linux: ~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/Alchemia- Creatio Ex Nihilo/archived_files
• 2. Rename the file to profile.save and paste it on the 'Alchemia- Creatio Ex Nihilo' folder, replacing any file with the same name there.
• 3. Restart the game and it should load this previous profile!

• Tweaked some music and sound effect volumes.
• Balanced cost of removing reagents from the shop throughout the run.
• Added a Discord button in the main menu - we find it easier to interact with our players there, that's why we're hoping to get more people to join and build an even better community!
