Save and quit the game. Find the save game file for your player,
named in format <character name>.svg in the "savedg" folder. Copy
it to the Windows Desktop and load the game. If done correctly, 
you should have one copy of the save file on your desktop and one
in the "savedg" folder. The desktop copy is the backup and should
be copied to the "savedg" file after you die in order to continue
the game. Note: Update the backup copy often.

When you die, if you saved before, the game erases that save file 
so you cannot restore it. When you save a game, go into "adom_dat"
folder then enter the saved games. Copy your save file to another 
folder. When you die, the file in the original folder is destroyed,
but not the other one. Copy it back into the original folder and 
continue from where you left off.
