Back to the Future Save Consistency

Probably normal, a byproduct of the game being released one episode per month, and each episode being a stand-alone game.

Yeah. It's probably normal since I had the same issue on my iOS version. I don't think it's a save data problem, just an oversight/technical difficulty/laziness thing.

It's just a really clunky implementation. It's basically 5 different games, where as far as I know, the save files are completely isolated from each other.

I didn't have a problem with this, people called me Michael Corleone the whole time. Apparently you're not the only one with this problem though. It's not like it makes much of a difference anyway.

I'm pretty sure the nickname you choose is supposed to be stored in the game's registry files.

i never understood why each episode is released as a stand-alone game oO

My wife had the same problem. My playthough was fine though...don't know why that happens.

I had the same issue, alias changed in Episode 2. Found a fix that involved changing the name in the registry then it was fine from then on.

I read that as "conspiracy".
