    I am working on a save/load system for my idle clicker game. However, if you launch the game and click load game, every item/multiplier will cost 0$ due to no player prefs previously being saved, therefore completely breaking the game if you click "Load Game" instead of "New Game" without previously playing the game and saving. Right now, I am saving every little variable & value in the game. (It is a skateboarding clicker game). What is the solution to this? Is it possible to check if PlayerPrefs are previously set before loading?

    To check whether a key already exists you can use PlayerPrefs.HasKey(key), and you can provide a default value: PlayerPrefs.GetInt(key, defaultValue)
