[mazi]Bad News

I have some really, REALLY unfortunate news. I have lost a flashdrive containing the most recent version of the game I have been making(That is the most recent Squares game). This comes as a huge shock because I was just about to release the demo. This really sucks because I really put some work in it. Some of you may have seen the video I posted a few post back.

I did back it up but that means that I have to retype several weeks worth of code, graphics, and stage design.

I need advice on what to do next. I was thinking of releasing the .gm6 for all those interested in helping me complete. I don't want to start all over again after coming this far and don't want to release a crappy looking demo. What should I do?

EDIT

Enough is enough. You guys are just a bunch of dumb asses. None of you, absolutely NONE OF YOU could answer the simple question if what next. Like FireflyX I am leaving this god forsaken community for good. Your all no help at all.

I once lost one too, the difference is that it didn't have anything in it.

None of you are helping at all. All I want to know is if I should:

1. Release the crappy demo as an example.

2. Or ask one of you sorry bastards for help.

God you guys suck at giving advice.

Why did you keep it all on a flash drive? Use your hard drive? It's a bit messier, but it's quite hard to loose it..

Save current versions on your hard drive and back up on flash drives.

Well, whatever :/.

my computor messed up a few times and It deleted every thing and including my The World's End game, but fortunatly I uploaded it before that, but it was an earlier version of it, and I had to start basicly from scratch, but I also came up with much better ideas for the game. So, I suggest you do the same.

Well if you did it once I don't see why you can't do it again.
Was my advice, I don't know why you would need our help to do something you've done before and there would be no reason to release a crappy demo.
