I need help reverting my project to an older save.

I was working on a project and for some reason the entirety of a costume for a sprite turned blank. (this costume was storing a lot of assets I was using for the game) I was working on a different sprite and when I switched over to the sprite with my assets, the whole costume was blank. I wanted to reset the project to revert the costume, but I had done a lot of coding in a different sprite without saving that I didn't want to lose. I tried putting the sprite with the code I was working on in my backpack, but I was unaware that doing so would save the project. when I saw the text saying that the project was saving, I panicked and closed the tab thinking I would be able to close it before the project saved, but I was wrong and now I cant access the old save through tab history. I need a way to revert the project to an old save if it is possible.

You unfortunately can’t revert to an older save Next time I recommend downloading your project each time before you save by going file > save to your computer

oh are you sure there isn't anything I could do to view old saves?

unless i recall wrong, they could ask contact-us; that's how the situation with the questionmark bug was originally handled as well.

but i may be misremembering here…

Projects aren’t saved unless you save them - meaning contact us can’t do anything:
