Savegame

CrossCode has two save systems. The old system (before 0.8.2) stores all Saves in localstorage. Due to size limitations this was changed to a file based save system. This new System stores save data in the cc.save file.

0.8.2 has a savegame bug on MacOS and Linux. The Windows exclusive Environment variable appdata is used. Version 0.8.2-2 replaced this with nw.App.dataPath.

Savefile and Localstorage format

The format of the Save storage is a JSON:

Format overview:

{
  "slots": [
    {savestring_slot1},
    {savestring_slot2},
    ...,
    {savestring_slotX}
  ],
  "autoSlot": {savestring},
  "globals": {savestring},
  "lastSlot": {slot_number}
}

Element	Description
"slots"	Array (List) containing all saves, starting with Slot 1
"autoSlot"	Containing the Autosave
"globals"	Containing all global data
"lastSlot"

Example:

{
  "slots": [
    "[-!_0_!-]U2FsdGVkX1+K8a2HlAKS...5329sQ69bTU5quQ0UGjIt6DG45kxwJZD",
    "[-!_0_!-]U2FsdGVkX1/sl4dQyBgHx...jbIn4tmVHPt0ZCxi9ElniMHI13xGxQk",

  "lastSlot": 0
}

Savestring

A savestring containing the actual save data. Every String starts with [-!_0_!-] and is base64 encoded. The decoded result is a AES-256 (CBC mode) encrypted JSON. The password that is used to encypt and decrypt the data is already known since May 2016.

The game is using CryptoJS to encrypt and decrypt the data.

There are multiple ways to decrypt a Savestring:

Method	Info
Openssl	Remove [-!_0_!-] from the String Encrypt: openssl enc -e -base64 -A -aes-256-cbc -md md5 -pass pass:"{password}" Decrypt: openssl enc -d -base64 -A -aes-256-cbc -md md5 -pass pass:"{password}"
CryptoJS	Remove [-!_0_!-] from the String Encrypt: CryptoJS.AES.encrypt({savejson},{password}) Decrypt: CryptoJS.AES.decrypt({savestring},{password})
