    Curious why it's not working for you. You could try it locally with these steps...

    Find a save slot that you don't mind risking lost. Maybe copied from another slot.
    Upload to cloud and confirm.
    Delete the save file.
    Wait a minute, then attempt to download from cloud and confirm.

    See if that works first, to make sure it's at least working on one device.

    Is there any way to shut that orange whiny flying friend up?!
     
  6. I'll try when I get home. I just remembered that when I first got my iPad, it was having some iCloud issues. Thought it was fixed, because it's been working fine since. But I'll check if something broke again. :/

    So there are confirmation boxes after clicking the upload button? Because I didn't see any feedback after I clicked upload. Dunno if it's uploaded but I didn't see any Dust in my iCloud Data via Settings>Usage. Hmmm
     
  8. It is in Cloud Drive. Not all apps with iCloud show up under Usage. You can thank Apple fot that. :/ But it showed up there for me before I even tried pushing anything to the cloud. It basically just tells you which apps on your device use iCloud.

    Wow. This game kind of reminds of a cross between Bastion and Crimson Gem Saga, but so much better than those two. I might actually finish this one!

    Ok, so when I just upload to iCloud and try to download it to another slot, it doesn't work, even on the same device (iPhone). But when I copied it, uploaded the copy to the cloud, deleted the copy, then pulled it to the same slot, it worked. But that seems like a really bad workaround?

    Edit: I also haven't tested whether it will download to my iPad. Will report back.

    Edit 2: It does not download to my iPad at all. I just deleted and re-installed Monument Valley just to make sure my iCloud is functioning properly, and it loaded everything without a hitch. So this is definitely something with Dust.

    I think you might be misunderstanding how the cloud save works, because it sounds like it's working right. If you upload slot #9 to the cloud, you can now download slot #9 from the cloud on another device. Each slot has it's own cloud counterpart. There isn't just 'one' cloud file.
     
  13. Ohhh really? Yeah, definitely misunderstanding that. You might want to clarify that in the game? (Unless it's already there and I missed it.) I've never seen any games do it that way, so I wouldn't have thought each slot has its own specific cloud save that only works on that slot.

    But I just tried the same slot on my iPad and it worked. So thanks! :)

    The MFi update will push it to 6-stars for me, if i could. :)
