Where Are Flotsam Save Files Located?

Flotsam saves in a Unity LocalLow folder with a settings JSON and registry keys, plus Proton and both PC clouds.

Last updated

Flotsam is Unity with the full triple split. Town saves sit in a Saves folder under LocalLow. A PlayerSettings.json file beside it holds options, with registry keys mirroring some toggles.

Copy the whole developer folder for moves, since saves and settings share it. Early access updates occasionally reshape town formats, so keep dated copies before big patches. Cloud mirrors cover Steam and GOG, but the folder copy remains the exact one.
