The Bug

If you had played the demo version before the Prologue and still had a save slot, it ended up causing issues with the leaderboard backend we are using, in which case it wouldn't let you play at all.

Luckily, a player came onto our Discord today and pointed out this huge blocker and we were able to figure out the problem and rectify it. To test it, we simply asked him to delete an old save slot he had, which contained old demo data (at this time the save slots for all versions of the game are saved in the same folder) and viola, issue fixed.

The Solution

So, that's what we are going to do. We are forcing a deletion of all your current save slots on launch and we made sure that on our end this won't happen again by segregating the save slots for each build version of the game (which in hindsight, we should have done a long time ago).

It's not the most ideal thing to do, but it had to be done to make sure this particular issue wouldn't happen again. Once you update to the newest build you will no longer have your old saves available.

New players that have never played the game before were not affected and this won't affect them either.

And to clarify once more, the reason all save slots are being deleted is due to the new way we are saving the game.
