Welcome!

This is my quick guide to keeping your save in Welcome to the Game II.

Note that game only saves every 15 minutes so even with this guide you will still lose progress depending on where you are within that time.

Pause the game by pressing the Esc key
Minimize the game and go to your desktop
Open your 'Appdata' folder, you can use the shortcut command %appdata%
Open your 'LocalLow' folder (Make sure you're not in the Roaming folder!) https://ibb.co/npWWcS
Open the 'Reflect Studios' folder
Open the 'Welcome to the Game II' folder
Copy the 'WTTG2.gd' file and paste it where ever you would like to store it (I made a new folder and called it Backup Saves)

Now that you have stored your save file in a safe place, you may play the game again and if you die you just need to copy the backup save file and paste it into the Welcome to the Game II folder. Good luck and thanks for reading!

@Toxic Child Yes. You need to have the game open for this to work. If you close the game it will remove the files you will need. WTTG2OPTDATA.gd is not important.

question: do you need to have the game open for the save file to work? also i have a file called 'WTTG2OPTDATA.gd', is that important at all?

Markiplier should see this. Might help him if he ever changes his mind on finishing the game.
