Deleting Save data before games release

#1 Post by Link2link8 »

I know by clicking delete persistent was supposed to do the job (I can't skip on game after that so I know it works) however when I go into my save menu it still shows the save data, so I was wondering how get rid of it since i will be releasing a game soon and don't want to screw up...

Ren'Py won't include save data (or persistent data) in a release.

This one is pretty easy to solve. While in the game's save screen, hold the cursor over the save, and press the 'delete' key on your keyboard.
