Where Are Golden Idol Save Files Located?
Golden Idol saves per user ID in a Godot app-data tree with exact casing. Redux versions moved the path.
Last updated
Golden Idol follows Godot conventions with exact casing. User-prefixed save and settings files share an app-data tree under the engine folder. Redux-era moves shifted older claims into history.
Store builds containerize separately with single-source paths. Cloud backends mirror per store without unifying layouts. Copy the Godot tree whole with casing intact.

Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Golden Idol saves?

Did the Golden Idol save path change?
They shifted paths between eras with pre-Redux locations unverified. Current builds use the Godot tree while older claims stay single-sourced. Quote the Godot path for current installs and flag the history.
