Title: [SOLVED] Remove Saved Games Before Distribution?
Post by: HyperAnimated on Sun 12/11/2023 12:41:22
Hi all!  It's been a while since I made a game, and this is probably blindingly obvious - if I saved a game while testing my game, how do I delete it from the saved games list before distributing the game?

Thanks for your help!

Hey there! As far as I know save games are not included in the same directory of the compiled game. Not because you're able to load a game means the save game file is included where you have the game files. The only thing to distribute the game is to remove the flag Debug before building it.

Windows: user\Saved Games\Game Name
Mac: Library/Application Support/Game Name

Ah, there we go, thank you!  I didn't realize it was in that user folder, I kept searching the Compiled folder thinking it should be saved in there like the old Sierra games did. :grin:

Makes sense, I get it now!  Thanks again!

Only for the reference, you can also force AGS to save in the exe dir by setting a "custom save path" in setup (not that I suggest doing that without a serious need).
