Quick answer
The Steam launch announcement says demo saves carry over, and tinyBuild’s current Steam-specific support article says they should transfer automatically. If they do not, tinyBuild provides manual transfer steps for Steam. The Switch status is less certain: a tinyBuild source snapshot checked on September 23 reported that Nintendo Switch demo progress did not transfer, but the current issue list rechecked on October 12, 13, and 15 no longer mentions it. Those omissions do not establish a fix, so check current official support before relying on a Switch demo save.
Platform status
| Platform | Official status | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Steam | tinyBuild says demo saves should transfer automatically and provides manual steps if they do not. | Check the full game’s save list; if needed, follow the linked Steam support instructions. |
| PlayStation | The launch announcement says demo saves carry over; no platform-specific transfer instructions were found in the current support sources checked. | Check the full game’s save list before creating a replacement run. |
| Xbox | The launch announcement says demo saves carry over; no platform-specific transfer instructions were found in the current support sources checked. | Check the full game’s save list before creating a replacement run. |
| Nintendo Switch | A Sep. 23 tinyBuild snapshot said demo progress did not transfer; the Oct. 12, Oct. 13, and Oct. 15 lists omit the issue, and no resolution is confirmed. | Check the current official support status before relying on the demo save or deleting it. |
| Nintendo Switch 2 | The sources checked do not independently confirm demo-save transfer behaviour for Switch 2. | Check current official support before starting a replacement run. |
Why the answer is platform-specific
The Steam support instructions apply specifically to Steam and Windows save locations. The Sep. 23 Switch issue listing is historical evidence only; the current omission is not proof of resolution. These sources do not justify flattening transfer behaviour into one yes-or-no answer for every platform.
