Hydroneer 2.0 Update: Old Saves is Missing
For the 2.0 update we’ve completely remade our save file system to be a lot more stable and optimized, also added hundreds of brand new items and replaced a lot of them.
For these reasons we had to make save files not compatible with 2.0.
You can however still access your old save files on the old version of the game via a steam beta branch, and play on the old version.
To do this:
– Right click Hydroneer in your steam library
– Go to Properties – Betas – select ‘Early_Development_Version_1.7’ from the list.
– Close the window and wait for the update to download.
You can go back to 2.0 by following the same steps and go to ‘Default’.
