I have just lost one of my projects that I have been working on for 5 days and have spent so long doing code on and, I know this has happened to others and no I didn’t save any backups because I forgot well (I had one but that was on the second day) and I had nailed the sprite art and the gameplay this is going to put me off making a game for a while I think. Bye the way just to help the mods the problem was that it duplicated the on start block making one I couldn’t delete and one I could put the one I couldn’t change was the one that I was working on and then it glitched so @BotWarrior suggested refresh the page after saving, I saved then when I came back it was deleted and then I loaded the save that was also back at the point when there was 2 on start blocks.

Sorry to hear that! Were you logged in while making this project? If you could share the current state of the project we can take a look as well.

Nice red pallet. Could you share the backup you mentioned with 2 OnStart blocks? There is a chance @jwunderl can fix the save file and send you a working one!

That feeling of relief always hits hard when you realize you have back ups

I have no hope for the code coming back, working on a new project now and saving backups like every 3 seconds lol 🙂
