== v0.38.26 — The Desktop Shell Grows Up == * '''Desktop saves are real files now.''' The native build stops keeping your save inside the browser engine's storage (which the operating system was allowed to evict) and writes proper save files on disk instead — crash-safe, and laid out exactly where Steam Cloud will sync them when that switches on. Your existing desktop save moves itself over automatically on first launch; the web version is completely unaffected. * '''Closing the desktop app is safe now.''' Clicking the window's X runs the same careful goodbye the web version does — your progress is written to disk and your cloud save gets a couple of seconds to finish uploading before the window actually closes. The window also remembers its size and position between launches. * '''Steam accounts get their own save folders.''' On the Steam build, each Steam account on a PC now keeps its saves in its own folder — family members (or Family Sharing guests) can never overwrite each other, and it is the exact layout Steam Cloud will sync per-account when it switches on. Your existing desktop save moves itself into your account's folder the first time you launch through Steam.
