Ludusavi is a cross-platform tool for backing up and restoring PC video game save data, supporting 19,000+ games across stores like Steam, GOG, Epic, Heroic, and Lutris. It offers both a graphical interface and a CLI for scripting, and works on the Steam Deck including Proton saves.

Use cases

  • back up pc game saves
  • restore game save data after reinstalling windows
  • sync steam deck save files
  • back up saves from gog and epic games
  • script game save backups from the command line
  • back up proton saves with steam
  • migrate game saves to a new pc

When to choose

  • you want a dedicated, actively maintained tool covering 19,000+ games' save locations
  • you need both a GUI and a scriptable CLI
  • you play across Steam, GOG, Epic, Heroic, or Lutris and want one backup solution
  • you use a Steam Deck or Proton and need save compatibility

When to avoid

  • you need full game file backups rather than just save data
  • you want automatic scheduled cloud sync built in without external tooling
  • you only play games with cloud saves already handled by the store
