    is there anywhere I can go to find a video on an in depth class for saving data. I just can't seem to save data how I want to and It is incredibly frustrating have a near finished product and no way to save progress. Thank you!

    Might want to describe what data you want to save and how you want to save it. Probably would get some better advice.

    Don't save in binary, too hard to debug when you have issues. Saving binary will also NOT in any way prevent hacking. Source: I'm a hacker.

    Use JSON as Unity supports it natively. Look up all the 10,000 or more tutorials there are on saving/loading game progress. There are MANY warriors who came before you in this precise battleground.
