Save game management

Collection of scripts in order to move all (as much as i can) save of my video games in one remote place (eg. Nextcloud directory,…). Then a symbolic link should take place of the directories. This allows me to:

  • Have save in the cloud for all games!
  • Easily find my save in one place.
  • Easily backup everything (one tar to backup them all).
  • Synchronize save between Linux hosts.
  • Restore save if anything happens to my game computer.
  • Everything that Nextcloud allows me to do (access from anywhere, share,…).

How-to use

Run the main script to automatically run the 3 others:

~/repos/gardouille.scripts/games/save.game

This will run:

  • save.game.steam: Try to move or symlink saves from 3 Steam's directories, userdata, common and compatdata.
  • save.game.xdg: Try to move or symlink save that respect the XDG specifications (~/.config and ~/.local/share).
  • save.game.home: Try to move or symlink other saves that the devs have seen fit to place anywhere else…
