Ack, everything just broke! Corrupt project file?

I've been working on my game a lot, and everything just broke. The project won't load any more. Here's a video of what I mean: http://blip.tv/file/3075226
I just added some actors that use Save Attribute and Load Attribute (it's the first time I tried using them). When I tries previewing the game, it just showed white, so I figured I maybe had some errors in my actors. Doing a web preview didn't work either. So I closed GS and opened it again (because this seems to fix various problems) and then my project won't load. It opens with just a white screen, nothing else.
It seems to me like the project file is corrupt or something. What can I do to fix this? I've put a lot of time and effort into this game so far! Thanks.

I also tried creating a new project and manually copying most of the files from the broken project into the new project, but that just ends up deleting most of the files in the new project. I was assuming it would work though.

good luck! hope you are able to retrieve everything!
Lucky I have a time machine and had hourly backups of my game.
If you have a External HD spare I recommend you hook it up to your mac and use it as a time machine. It's great and I've use it a lot.
