[PC] Lumines Remastered save file format

So, I found the password and data structure used by Lumines Remastered save files and decided to share the details since there's little to no documentation about this game file formats. I checked this with the game version 1.04 for PC but the console ports are very likely to use the same format:

The game uses Easy Save 2 plugin to handle its save file
The game uses the plugin's built-in encryption (from a quick look seems to be based on AES-128) and the password used is RsALO31A0D58eRwnh5e8L1nQvrXIke
The actual content written to/read from the save file as well as the order which the variables are read/written are important when using Easy Save 2. Lumines Remastered stores the following variables, on the following order:

Code: Select all

I didn't dig too deep on Easy Save 2 source code, but it should be easy to write a standalone app to handle Lumines Remastered save files, if there's interest. Since I was too lazy, I instead created an empty Unity project, imported Easy Save 2 to the project and used the plugin directly, which also works but it's a bit overkill...
