Where Are Void Bastards Save Files Located?
Void Bastards keeps saves and config together in a BlueManchu LocalLow folder, mirrored on Mac.
Last updated
Void Bastards stores saves and configuration together in a BlueManchu folder under LocalLow on Windows. The Mac build mirrors the same tree under Application Support.
One folder per platform means one backup step each. The layouts match, so the folder transfers directly between Windows and Mac. Copy it before reinstalling or verifying, since neither operation preserves local files reliably. Steam Cloud covers the saves on top.

Copy the whole BlueManchu folder with the game closed. Saves and config travel together, and Steam Cloud reconciles the saves on first launch.
