because renpy keeps copies of your saves in your hidden appdata folder. go into any folder, click on "view" and check the option to show hidden folders; now, your saves are gonna be in your "user" folder (whatever you called your pc): user -> AppData -> Roaming -> RenPy -> Tvern_of_Spear-1, delete everything, sync folder included (or just move them somewhere else, just your persistent save for the gallery, whatever, your call)

well, try downloading the game on your desktop and see if it automatically finds and shows your saves when you try to load (so no itch launcher), if it does, your saves should be safe... and you can probably just play like that, versions don't have to be kept for saves to transfer over, so it's not like you'll have dozens of gigabytes eaten by ToS.
after that, if you reaaally want to use the itch launcher, you can overwrite your saves and delete the build over there to see if a reinstall fixes it, but that's for later, try what i said above.
renpy should have another folder named like the game inside, the saves have the page number and position that indicate where they are on the load save screen, something like "24-6-LT1.save", at least on windows...
still, chances are renpy is smart enough to have saves somewhere even if you delete your current build and download another one
also, if you are on the itch launcher, doesn't the game prompt you to run it or open the saves folder whenever you wanna play?
i don't use mac or itch to update this game, you can always use the links on the itch page or the update channel in the discord if you are a patron. for the saves, windows usually saves in game -> saves, but both windows and mac also keep copies in a hidden folder... should be a "library" folder for you, but you need to tell your mac to show hidden folders first, then they are in library -> renpy -> tavern of spear (or a similar name)
the cloud function in preferences is made for that, save files are fine, but renpy limitations deem the persistent.sav too big and will omit it in the transfer (it contains the gallery data)... send it to a dropbox, SD card, or on your Discord, so you can paste it on your pc to overwrite the new persistent.sav that generates once you launch the gayme (or, well, you can re-unlock the gallery yourself fast if you have saves in various parts of the gayme, or use the cheat code if you are a $5 patron, but that unlocks everything)
I do mean the Discord, just ask there for quicker help lol, it's pretty much only me checking replies on here. And yes, Einar is 100% getting more because the snow mountain arc is not even finished yet. As i said, images on my guide look fine on pc, so use your pc or ask me on Discord... worst case, i have the original files i can send as well.
Uhm, the link to the guide is literally in the game's page here on itch, in "preferences" in the game or, well, on the discord server lol. I think you are on mobile btw, the images just show up blurry on there for some reason... and yis, the holy fist trick is mentioned in there. Glad it was useful btw, feel free to join us on there since you seem to love the gayme~ (or in case you need help again).
i just restarted the game and got there... tried both with the goo armor and without, won, gave the flower to snow, went to hakan to celebrate, slept 3 days, talked to him, waited another day for the hangover, talked to him again and he offered to have fun, see if it all checks out... otherwise send the save file and i will check tomorrow
at the new campsite (unlocked once you return from the mountains on some of the routes, idk if you have it), chet has a series of quests, those two are for his "marketing" one: one scene is for doing all 3 requirements he sets for you, the other is for doing 2 but losing the battle itself (so save before the quest to see both)
Tbh, considering his backstory, it really shows how much he was latching on his love for you, and hasn't banished you due to that or for being a hero despite everything, but i'd bet his heart aches every time he sees you after the events.
Aside from that, it's by design one cannot save everyone or get everything in one route and has to try them all for the full experience, lore and different rewards.
