Saving and Loading
TOWD » Devlog
Today, not a sexy change, but the ability to save and load the game.
Long overdue. Also allows scum saving/scum loading.
It just feels more full featured this way.

What about scum saving/loading makes it different than normal saving/loading
scum save always saves to a particular slot, and doesn't have you verify that you want to overwrite it.
scum load loads from that slot, and also has fewer steps.
in other games, it is called a "quick save/quick load"
but i call it a scum save/scum load
because i'm quirky
Works for me!
Full disclosure, from now on I am going to mentally rename it SPLOR save and SPLOR load.
