How To Save Your Roblox Game?
When you’re playing the game in studio, and save it, it doesn’t save any of the work you’ve just done. Wow. It's not Roblox's fault you couldn't have the sense to save your work.
Save your hard work by publishing your game online where it’s stored by Roblox. It’s a good idea to save your game every 10-15 minutes. Select File → Publish to Roblox to open the publishing window. Enter a place name and an optional description.
By default, games tested in Studio cannot access data stores, so you must first enable them. Make sure your game is published (File > Publish to Roblox) to enable Studio access. From the Home tab, open the Game Settings window. In the Security section, turn on Enable Studio Access to API Services.
Remember, online mode is for testing your creations. It is possible that you might have an autosave file, so it is probably worth checking there. Otherwise, I am sorry that you lost your progress. It's not Roblox's fault though.
