Leading up to the 1.0 release, and with the major changes introduced in the 1.0 version, we recognized that some of you might have wished to continue your original Early Access journey. In anticipation of this, we created a separate branch on Steam for the Early Access build, giving you the option to either try out the new 1.0 experience or finish the story in the version you began with. Our main goal was ensuring none of our players felt their progress was disregarded.
Here's how to access your old save to continue your adventure:
- Right-click on Black Skylands in your Steam library and select 'Properties'.
- Choose 'Betas' from the left menu.
- In 'Beta Participation', click the drop-down menu currently showing 'None'.
- To continue pre-release adventures, select the 'early_access_game_version’ branch.
- Close the window. The game will now update.
- To return to the release version, choose 'None' in the 'Beta Participation' drop-down, close the window, and wait for the game to update.
