[Switch] Endless world save files not loading
under review
Brandi Meuse
This is happening to me too :( I'm fine if I don't save and get off but if I do when I try to open a saved endless mode it just loads forever. Mine were all single player Peabo, same switch account

Brandi Meuse: What level is your Endless save file on?
Brandi Meuse
Nap: last one was on level 11, previous was level 4, and another was level 18
Nap
Brandi Meuse: Very odd. We will definitely look into this though
Brandi Meuse
Nap: thanks for hearing and responding 😊 love the game!

Jim Robinson Hey Jim thanks for your reports. Endless not loading on Switch is on our radar, we will look into it. Can you please resubmit your other post for Online Games becoming barren, I accidentally merged it in here.

Endless Mode wont load saved games
Jim Robinson
When playing on Endless Mode in the Switch version, the saved games will no longer load. If you save the game and exit and then try to reload later, the game will just sit there on the loading screen forever. The tips at the bottom of the screen will cycle through and the washing machine animation will go, but I've waiting for upward of 45 minutes and it just won't load the saves games

Which save file is the one that's loading. The highest one?
Keegan
Nap: The level 40 file loaded.

First stuck file at level 18:
- Reached level 18, save icon flashed as normal
- Save and quit the game while in the elevator
- Process flashed the save icon and exited out to main title screen
- Closed the game completely, put the Switch to sleep
- Restarted TJ&E, load save game
- Endless washing machine
More information from the second player about exactly what happened for the level 48 save file (I wasn't in the room):
- Reached level 48, save icon flashed as normal
- Save and quit the game while in the elevator
- Process flashed the save icon and exited out
- The game crashed/unexpectedly closed/forced quit the moment the main screen came up.
- Went to reload the game to make sure it worked because of previous stuck save file
- Endless washing machine

Keegan: Are all these files on different Switch accounts or the same one? Could you also provide a screenshot of your Load Game page with all the saves on it?
Also were any of these files ever an online game, or were they all offline?
Keegan
Nap: These are all on the same Switch account, and they were all offline games.
I don't currently have a screenshot of the Load Game, as we started another Endless and didn't want to exit out again so it's just sleeping. I'll see about getting one.
Nap
Keegan: If you can remember how many players each save files is I wouldn't need a screenshot. I'm just wondering if certain saves had multiple players, and which characters you picked. Trying to repro as accurate as possible
Keegan
Nap: Oh sure, I believe one stuck file had Old Skool Toejam and Peabo, the other definitely had Lewanda and Peabo.
Nap
Keegan: They're all 2 player Endless files?
Keegan
Nap: Yes, all offline.
Keegan
Nap: New incident:
Two-player, offline, using Lewanda and Peabo again, the game crashed going into level 48 once more.
The auto-save created on the transition to load level 48
did load
this time, no infinite washing machine.Nap
Keegan: When you say Level 48 once more you mean it seems to always crash on Level 48 for you?
We were aware of a crash in Endless on Switch, it should be less frequent. It's unfortunate we weren't able to get it perfect but for now it should always save where you were and you'll always be able to pick up where you left off.
Really sorry for all the inconvenience you're experiencing with the new update.
Keegan
Nap: This is the second time it has crashed on level 48, yes. However, the problem with the stuck-washing-machine save file is unrelated. I had a stuck save file from a game that did not crash.
And no worries, we're enjoying the new update very much!
