After your first game: saves, renewal and what is next

After reaching your first playable scene, take these steps before expanding the library.

Keep a save backup you can findCopy Anchor Link

1. Save inside the game using its menu or save point. Exiting is not a substitute for saving.
2. Exit the game in S2Arm, then open its save management.
3. Use the backup / export action and choose a location you can find. The baseline Mac interface offers a backup destination; the phone offers export in save management while the game is not running.
4. Note the game version and backup date. Do not immediately overwrite your current progress just to prove a backup exists.

Success check: An actual exported backup file exists in a known location, not just an in-game Saved message.

Back up again before updating, moving or changing installation methods. Restoring replaces progress; check the game and version before moving across devices. Do not assume an older tutorial's internal save paths apply to the new version. Versioned interface · Official saves guide

Phone app stops opening after several daysCopy Anchor Link

Upstream guidance describes a typical seven-day signature validity with a free Apple account. For normal launcher installation, reconnect to the original computer and renew through the installation flow with the original account. An expired signature does not itself mean saves were erased, and uninstalling is not the first step. Official signing guide

An explicit runtime crash or resource error is not necessarily signature expiry merely because several days passed. Follow the actual symptom in troubleshooting.

Add your next gameCopy Anchor Link

Import your next own game on the computer, choose its target and build, then install or launch using your existing route. The baseline uses a unified S2Arm library, rather than a separate phone app for every game.

If existing games report incompatibility with a newer runtime, read updates and rebuilding before deleting anything.

Remember four details for future problemsCopy Anchor Link

The computer launcher version, S2Arm version on the playing device, game version and stage that failed. These tell you whether a guide applies. Use the report outline if you need help.
