Could you please post a screenshot of one of these files? Could you also confirm what kind of file it is showing as in a Finder window?

I cannot get the image to shrink so I hope you can see it, but this is what all 12 of my save files look like. I've tried compressing them to play, as well as making them atlas and nothing seems to work.

Thanks! I can't see it very well but it looks like the file name is what's causing the issue. Saves should end in .save with backup versions ending in ver.1 and upwards. Try with just one save file in the saves folder and see if it will load, try one labelled Slot_00000001.save or Slot_00000002.save or similar.Tried that. The file wont change to a different ending. I even tried changing the file name. My screenshot wont work, but when I click on the file it says this:
