I lost my save game. Just went to check out 0.19 and realised I have to start from the beginning. I saw online there are cheats to jump to the end of the story from the last update point, but they don't work :(
Anyone got any suggestions?
Can you restore the save files from backup?
Are you sure save files are lost? They are stored in two places (at least on Windows, Linux and Mac), check from Discord channel FAQ where they are stored on your platform.
Where did you get those cheat codes?
Normally to get cheat codes one becomes a supporter on Patreon or Subcribestar.
How did you lose your save? This usually happens when someone attempts to transfer the game files from one drive to another. Saves are stored in %appdata% not the game's files. So your saves may still be on your old drive.
There may be some v0.18 saves available on discord if you would like to ask there. Someone is usually willing to give away their save.
Any publicly available cheats will not work as they'll get updated as soon as they leak.
