omg guys. stop crying. "it is alpha", sometimes it works, sometimes not. sometimes you have everything and lose everything because of a bug. "it is alpha" and that`s it. it happens to many people every day. maybe tomorrow you can play normally and get all that stuff in a couple of hours. this is the way this game works. there is no reason for crying at devs. they do good work as fast as possible. i think it works well for a alpha game. and! a hotfix is NOT really a patch. :) have more fun. it will be great in the future!
