What

PlainSave is a simple save system designed for small to mid-sized games, based on the principle of open data, where all save files are human-readable.

Audience

  • Developers who do not need or want to hide save data.
  • Developers who want to ensure that game data can be easily fixed.
  • Developers seeking a straightforward save system without complex data structures.

Setup

  1. Create a default save file using any text editor.
  2. Update the PlainSave settings through the user interface.
  3. Test the system by calling any OpenSaveManager method.

Includes

  • A sample game scene.
  • Comprehensive documentation.
  • FAQ and support (ENG/JP).

From the publisher's Asset Store listing.

Technical details

  • No Encryption: Save files are open and human-readable.
  • Text-Based Format: Custom file extensions are allowed.
  • Static Structure: Based on four columns: ID, Tag, (Optional: Subtag), and Value.
  • Limited Nesting: Complex data nesting similar to JSON is not supported; however, grouping rows by tag allows for some organization.
  • String Representation: If it can be represented as a string, it can be saved.
  • Row-Based Storage: Data is saved on a row basis with sequential IDs, allowing direct O(1) access.
