i’m not going to code it for ya’, but i’ll point you in the right direction.
to save stuff you need to use the “settings-blocks” extension. this lets you store numbers, strings, and booleans in a way where they will persist even if the user restarts the game.
the basic code for saving your game will probably look something like this:
inside on start, you want to check to see if a save file exists. if so, ask the player if they want to continue or start a new game and then continue from there.
inside your saveGame function, you want to save all the variables of your game that you’ll want to restore. for example, you might store what level the player is on, what items are in their inventory, etc. you’ll want to call this function whenever the player does something that should be saved (beats a level, opens a treasure chest, talks to an npc, etc.)
then, inside your startGameFromContinue function, you can read those values out of settings and setup all of your variables again.

thanks
to do that you could have a forever block that always saves progress, rather than when the player leaves.
