Why Clean Up Your Save Files?
“A cluttered workspace is a cluttered mind,” as Marie Kondo would say. The same principle applies to your Game Dev Tycoon save files. Too many files can slow down your game and make it less enjoyable.
Steps to Remove Save Files
-
Locate Your Save Files: These are typically found in the Documents > My Games > Game Dev Tycoon folder on your computer.
-
Identify Unwanted Files: Look for files with names like ‘AutoSave’ or ‘Backup’. These are usually temporary and can be safely deleted.
-
Delete the Files: Right-click on the unwanted files and select ‘Delete’. Confirm the action when prompted.
A Word of Caution
“Back up your work,” as any seasoned game developer would advise. Before deleting any files, make sure to back them up elsewhere to avoid losing valuable progress.
FAQs
Q: Will deleting save files erase my game progress?
A: No, deleting save files will not erase your game progress if you have a recent autosave or manual save file remaining.
Q: Can I delete the main save file?
A: It is generally not recommended to delete the main save file as it contains all your game progress. However, if you wish to start over, you can do so by deleting the main save file and starting a new game.
In conclusion, keeping your Game Dev Tycoon save files organized not only frees up storage space but also enhances your gaming experience.
