The new save system is really buggy

So, a lot of the new gui looks really great, but the save system is a hot mess.     Firstly, there's no real way to know if you've successfully saved the game unless your level has gone up.  There's no click sound or button push animation, or notation of any kind to tell you that it's different than the last save that was sitting there.

The next problem is bigger, though.  Apparently there's a chance at any given moment that the save will simply result in a new game when you try to load it.  I spent over an hour grinding for spells, saved to go get breakfast, then came back to find all that work gone as the new game sequence started.  I have also clicked to load only to find out that an event I finished before the save (the save was specifically because I wanted to load directly after that event in case of failure) was no longer finished.

Not sure what led to this glitch, and I'm trying just deleting and reinstalling now.  Just thought  at the very least you could add something to the saves.  I'd recommend  adding in a game timer or a save counter so that when someone saves  there is something there that differentiates it from other saves.

I've been following this for a while, and the issues with saving and loading only happened when you updated all the GUIs.  I love that you're continually improving the game and I love the game, but this is something that desperately needs to be fixed.
