Flash games save levels

amazingbrains · 26-10-2009, 03:16 PM

Is it possible to save the levels in flash game like stunt bike?? I spend so much time passing all the levels and when the power goes off or when i wish to continue the next day i have to start all over again...... How frustrating!!!!

Is there any way i can retrieve the game levels from where i left off?? Actually where does the game levels get stored??

If a Flash Based game does store levels, it has to be coded into the game itself and the save would have to be stored either on the server the game is stored on or a cookie on your computer. There is no way for you to do it manually.

Im playing the game offline on my computer. I stored the flash game stunt mania and im able to play the levels fine but once i close the game n reopen it, then it starts all over.Is there anyway to edit the cookie??

If it were stored in cookies then the save levels should only be cleared on deleting the cookies right? But i dont delete the cookies but still the game starts from LEVEL one!!!

Is the game supposed to be saving your level?

Like I said before, if a Flash game has a Save feature, it's coded into the game itself. Unless you know how to code Flash objects, there isn't much you can do if there is no Save feature.

The flash games usually keep the levels, points and all such session specific data in variables (i.e. in the system memory or RAM). So once you close the game the variables will be flushed and the data will be lost.
