Hello everyone!
Since there’s only one day left until the Early Access launch, I decided to improve the build tracking system as early as possible.
Over time, I noticed that without proper version tracking, many players could get confused when loading old save files in newer versions of the game. This can lead to bugs and glitches, and it became clear that a better system was necessary to prevent issues like these in the future.
How this affects you:
All save files created before update 0.37.4 will now be marked as "Unknown."
This means that to ensure proper game tracking, you’ll need to start a new game from scratch.
I really didn’t want to make such a radical change, but unfortunately, it became necessary. I’m truly sorry for the inconvenience.
That said, I believe it was better to introduce this now rather than face even worse confusion down the road.
What you should know:
Depending on where you discovered Lunar Eclipse, you may be using one of three different builds:
- Development
- Demo
- Early Access (available June 4th)
Each of these builds can have a different world state. For example, if you save your game in the Development build, that save will reflect the Development version of the world. Loading that same save in the Early Access version could cause unintended behavior — some objects might be unexpectedly activated or deactivated. In the worst-case scenario, you could spawn in the middle of nowhere.
Previously, players could unknowingly do this, but now that the community is growing, I had to make a decision to solve the problem.
This new system allows me to keep all three versions of the game updated while minimizing the risk of save file conflicts.
Here’s how the loading menu looks from now on:
Also, since Lunar Eclipse is mostly puzzle-based, I’m sure many of you can breeze through the game again fairly quickly — though I’m still really sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks so much for your understanding and support. It truly means a lot to me ❤️
