HOW TO CONTINUE FROM EPISODE 1 TO EPISODE 2

Short version:
You export your Episode 1 choices as a save file, then import them in Episode 2.

It takes about 1 minute.

STEP 1 — FINISH EPISODE 1

At the end of Episode 1, click:

“Download Save (.json) for Episode 2”

This creates a file called something like:
chakra-hearts-ep1-save.json

STEP 2 — OPEN EPISODE 2

From the main menu:

• Start Journey

• Choose Avatar

• Choose Name

• Select Episode 2

STEP 3 — IMPORT YOUR SAVE

In Episode 2:

1. Click Import Save

2. Choose Paste JSON

3. Open the downloaded .json file in Notepad / TextEdit

4. Copy everything inside (from { to })

5. Paste it and click Import

If the UI doesn’t update immediately, refresh once.

IF IMPORT DOESN’T WORK (DON’T PANIC)

Most common reasons:

• Only part of the file was pasted (missing the final })

• Quotes were changed by a chat app (must be plain ")

• You imported the wrong episode’s save file

If something still feels off, tell me — this system is temporary and will be fully automatic in the final release.

KNOWN ISSUE

Occasionally:
🐛 Random Bug Attack

If it happens, reload and try again.
If it keeps happening, that’s on me, not you.

FEEDBACK WELCOME

If this feels confusing or annoying, tell me.
I’m actively simplifying it while the full game is in development.

Thank you for playing Episode 1! I'm planning to release one episode per week as I finish polish and testing.
