Save file returns?!

[Broken]

So, I got bored of a save file, so I deleted it. Then the next time I went into Niche, a couple days later, the save file came back! But it ended up being a good thing because I thought it was a different game, and I had gotten so far in it. So, summary: I deleted a save file and then it randomly returned.

Any ideas on why this happened,@Philo?

Hmm we store a backup of the save in case it gets corrupted and load it if it can't find the original one. Could be that we have some bugs there. I'll look into it.

I have a had a similar thing happen to me.

Here's what I think happens:

1. You play a game online, close it, and it saves.

2. You then delete the game when you're offline.

3. You go back online, and the cloud where the game was saved reloads it into your Save files.

Therefore, you have a zombie save file that seemingly appears from nowhere.

I actually get something slightly different.

1. I often play games offline.

2. When I go online, the game files disappear and are replaced by the old save files that I used when I was last online.

Therefore my save files disappear, and old save files appear instead.
