Questions & How To's

i downloaded this game today. love it. but i don't understand how saves work. they're really inconsistent and i don't want to keep having to restart the game every time i have to stop playing. can someone explain them to me?

I believe closing the game by pressing the X in the corner will make a quicksave that'll return you to the beginning of the last screen you entered when you start the game up again, however pausing and exiting ends your playthrough and you have to start again.
