In video games: A process of overriding automatic saves by manually saving your game at points that may prove to be challenging or likely to lead to a death or a game over screen.
Save cycling can also be used to manipulate RNG in order to leave the player with a more favorable item pickup or enemy encounter, and is often done multiple times in a row.
Most importantly, this is not an intended use of the game-save feature and normally requires an exploit such as unlinking auto-save data (often a cloud save), so it cannot be automatically overwritten and requires manual intervention.

I just couldn't beat the third boss after going through the whole level again, so I save cycled just before the encounter and did it on my third try!
Save cycling was my only option to get the ultra rare spank emote; it took 100 tries, but I got the Platinum trophy!

Get the Save Cycling mug.NEVER TRUST, NEVER RELY ON ANY OTHER PERSON THAN YOURSELF TO KEEP YOURSELF SAFE. IT STARTS WITH THE THOUGHTS IN YOUR OWN MIND; THEN AFTER THAT, YOU HAVE TO PUT ACTIONS TO YOUR LIFE. NEVER RELY ON PLACES THAT CLAIM TO HELP YOU. WHETHER ITS THE QUOTE UNQUOTE ''GOVERNMENT'' (REALLY, THEY ARE JUST GROUPS OF PEOPLE)... WHETHER IT IS THE GOVERNMENT OR A PLACE LIKE A CHURCH, OR A SOCIETY, OR A GROUP THAT SAYS THEY CAN HELP YOU. THINK FOR YOURSELF. STOP LISTENING TO PARENTS, AND TEACHERS AND PROFESSORS AND THE NEWS MEDIA.
