Starting afresh with same template

I have a few half-finished games made with Quest and I think it took me just as long to get it looking how I wanted as it did writing the game itself.

I want to start again, but it's been so long I've completely forgotten what libraries and modifications I made in order to get it looking and behaving how I want.

So my question is this: How would I start a new game, but maintain the design and libraries of my other games? I'm thinking something along the lines of editing an old game, saving it under a different name and ID, and then deleting all the rooms and locations, but is there a quick way to do this?

There's also the many alterations I made that I want to keep, such as the recalling the CSS code so that the design is maintained on 'resume'.

Basically, I want the game I have now (as a canvas), but with all the locations and rooms stripped out.

That is the safest way.

Thanks, TP. In actual fact it wasn't the headache I feared. If you close all the rooms and delete the folder itself, it deletes all the contents too, so it took me all of 30 seconds to strip it out.
