You Can Finally Delete Your Saves
Posted by: Dan Fabulich | Comments (220)
Over the next week or so, we’ll be rolling out updates to all of our games that include the ability to save and restore your game, to implement the ability to delete saves that you no longer want to keep.
These changes are already live when you play on our website, and in our “Choice of Games”, “Hosted Games”, and “Heart’s Choice” omnibus apps.
We’ve also submitted updates for all of our standalone apps for Steam, iOS, and Android. You’ll see those updates appearing and auto-updating over the course of the next week or so.
How to delete your saves
Start by using the “restore game” menu option. You might need to “Retrieve saved games online from choiceofgames.com” to see your list of saves.
Once you see the list of saves on the “restore game” menu, you’ll see a new option to “Delete saves” at the bottom. You’ll see a menu, allowing you to select any number of saves, and then use the “Delete” button at the bottom to delete them. (If you’ve changed your mind, you can unselect all saves, and “Delete 0 Saves.”)
You can undelete your saves, too
After you’ve deleted saves, you’ll see a new menu option, allowing you to undelete saves that you’ve deleted.
Saved games will appear in the “undelete” menu for up to 30 days. (After 30 days, it’s still possible for Choice of Games staff to recover deleted saves.)
Reach out to us at support@choiceofgames.com if you have any questions around this.
Thanks for your patience
We first implemented the ability to save games on choiceofgames.com in 2013, and, over the last ten years, we’ve heard steady feedback that players needed to be able to delete those saves.
It took us a while, but we’re finally getting a chance to work on stuff that we should have done years ago, like adding keyboard shortcuts and disabling touch-slide controls.
There’s more to come! What do you think we should work on next?
Ayyyy. Nice
This is the biggest breakthrough in Choice history
Ikr. It’s a miracle.
Okay, undelete is a pretty great addition! Does that include overwriting by any chance?
Never mind me. I was thinking of the browser save function. Took me some time to realize what we’re actually talking about.
Finally, I can get rid of my 30+ ZE:SH saves!
