Does PEAK save your progress?
It seems like every few months, a small indie game releases that takes Steam by storm. PEAK is the latest one of these surprise titles. PEAK is a co-op climbing game where you and your friends must work together to scale a massive mountain at the center of the island where you have gotten lost. You can grab your friends or launch them to heights to continue your progress, but progress is easily lost. If you fall in PEAK, you have to continue climbing from where you ended up, similar to games like Getting Over It. Naturally, this is made way easier with checkpoints or game saves, but does PEAK have such a feature? Here's everything there is to know about saving progress and checkpoints in PEAK.
