Hi,<br/>
<br/>
As my party made short order of anything we met, I was a bit lazy in making my saves, of course that was when I found this fountain and a bunch of guardians of the grove who made mincemeat of my party. Nice thing about that was that i saw the way you handled the screen of death, which caused a huge smile. Unfortunately now I need to retrace a lot of steps.<br/>
<br/>
Therefore my request for an autosave. I would like an autosave on every load of a map which overwrites the previous autosave.

Hello Magabeus,<br/>
<br/>
the game is autosaved after each combat right now. Putting an extra save upon loading a new map would be a nice addition, indeed. I will think about this and put it in a future update, ok?<br/>
<br/>

Hi Mario<br/>
<br/>
Thanks for the quick reply!<br/>
Implementing this autosave would be nice, "problem" with autosave after each combat is that when there is a total party kill, the party stays dead.

Hello Magabeus,<br/>
<br/>
the autosave was implemented to help recovering after the app crashes for some reason.<br/>
The player has to save his game when he feels that a sudden death would mean replaying too much. Maybe this concept of saving and loading is a bit archaic, but it leaves the responsibility to the player.<br/>
<br/>
Relying on autosave to have the possibility of recovering every time things go bad is not a concept I like, to be honest ;-)<br/>
Letting the player decide when it's the right time to save increases tension, fun, and responsibility (i hope).<br/>
<br/>
Regards<br/>
Mario

Hi Mario,<br/>
<br/>
I get (and appreciate) your view. <br/>
<br/>
However, as a player, i like to really get into the game, having to think about saves takes me out of the game, so reduces the fun I have. Not that big a deal, but it is there anyway.<br/>
<br/>
Kind regards,<br/>
<br/>

Hi Magabeus,<br/>
<br/>
agreed! I just implemented it, it should be live with the next (not the upcoming one) update. :-)<br/>

one thing you will learn about these guys is that, they dont mess about.. if something needs changing they will do so with no fuss :P<br/>
<br/>
These guys show alot of other developers (including major companies) how things should be done :P<br/>
