HTML5 game saves are browser-specific and generally saved in localStorage.

Hi. It's not like Flash, where it stores as a specific file in a specific path on your hard drive. I would recommend doing some Google search into how to backup a game's data on localstorage, as it's more complex of a process.

You can start with threads like:
