Hi!
I’ve been using GDevelop to create a FNAF fan-game about myself. I’ve put a lot of effort into it, and I’m currently facing an issue that’s preventing me from continuing.
Before the most recent update, I had no trouble opening and working on my project. However, after the update, when I try to open my project, I get a popup that says:
“Check that the file exists, that this file is a proper game created with GDevelop, and that you have the authorization to open it.”
Here are the key points:
- I am the owner of the game and have not tampered with the game directory or cloud save.
- It is a proper GDevelop project.
- I’ve been working solo on this game.
- I started the project in the website editor, then moved to the app, logged in, and it worked fine until the recent update.
The Problem:
- Now, when I open the app, the game shows up as stored locally under “Your Computer”, but I can’t open it.
- On the website editor, the game is not showing at all.
- The Main Menu took a long time to get right, and I don’t want to redo all the progress I’ve made.
What I’ve Tried:
- I’ve confirmed that the game directory hasn’t been tampered with.
- I’ve checked for backups, but the website version doesn’t show the project, and the app won’t let me open it.
- I’ve checked the error message and confirmed the game file is still located locally.
Questions:
- Did the update corrupt my project?
- Is there any way to recover my project?
- I’m really hoping to continue working on this game without having to start from scratch.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! I’ve invested a lot of time and passion into this project, and I really don’t want to lose all the progress.
