Where is the folder where all autosaved designs are stored?

For whatever reason, autosaving of designs is opt out instead of opt in. Given that this game is about trying to make the most broken build possible, that means that if you don't studiously examine the entire menu before playing, you can, after a really good run, have the final boss constantly have impossible allies to fight against. (Swarmer+Greaser+Lymphoid=the ability to kill things off screen without a need to aim) I've been trying to use the aquarium to remove them, but deleting dozens of builds in a row (because changing even one piece will autosave it if you didn't know that was an opt out), it can take over an hour of monotony to make the game playable again unless you want to lose all of your unlocks.

If you're on Windows, you can find saved layouts at

%username%\AppData\LocalLow\All Parts Connected\Sipho\Layouts

Paste this into explorer window and the directory will show up.

As the game grew we had to choose to have autosaving to be on by default as losing what players have created would have been much worse.

I agree that there could be a better UI when a game is won or lost which would allow you to choose which "evolution" layouts should be saved and it would be much easier to manage. I'll keep your experience in mind - there are ways to keep autosaving on and not condemn regular runs.

There's also an issue of balance - having a Lymphoid dominate all "Alpha" builds shows that there are some inherent balance problems with it. It's hard to start playing with, which is fine for Campaign. Bug after reaching certain size it becomes very powerful - although the already spawned enemies don't have that "filter" of having to survive growing up with Lymphoid applied.
