Unrecoverable save failure

  1. 01

    Do not immediately overwrite a cloud conflict. Stop and note the exact message, timestamp and machine.

  2. 02

    Exit the game normally, then check Steam's Cloud status before launching again on another device.

  3. 03

    If Steam offers local or cloud copies, compare timestamps before choosing one.

  4. 04

    Record the current game version, platform, whether the run came from the demo or Early Access, and what happened immediately before the failure.

  5. 05

    Report the smallest repeatable sequence through the official Steam Discussions or the developer's current support channel.

Player-reported, not official root cause

Unrecoverable save failure is treated here as a player-reported symptom worth troubleshooting. This page does not claim an official root cause or a confirmed 0.6.39 fix.

03

Before switching devices

  1. 01

    Exit the game normally and allow Steam to finish syncing.

  2. 02

    Check Steam's cloud status before launching on the second machine.

  3. 03

    If the client reports a conflict, compare timestamps before choosing a copy.

Support boundary

These are safe Steam Cloud precautions, not a claim about Shroom and Gloom's unverified internal checkpoint timing.
