Save and Load .bat game

by

You could also save/load with only values, like

(
  echo %highscore%
  echo %playername%
  echo %points%
) > savegame.sav

and load them with

< savegame.sav (
  set /p highscore=
  set /p playername=
  set /p points=
)

The first part simply redirects the echo outputs to a file.
The loading part using also file redirection, but in this case as input source.
set /p commands in a block can read consecutively lines from the file.
