I'm wanting to make my game like a multi part game, and I was wondering if there is any way to do like multi part games and carry over your game data to different games. Like after you finish the first part, you carry over your game progress over to the next part as a continuation of the story.

A simple way would be to create a .txt file once the game is completed with all the necessary data that the other game can read to import data from.

Depends on, do you plan to do a Desktop Game or a Webbrowser Game?

A Desktop Game saves all the savestats into its Game Folder, so you can create a Plugin that allows the players to copy-paste Savestats from Game1 into Game2 and then the Plugin can read and interpret the Savestat.

For a Webbrowser Game I don't know, the savestats are stored in some Browser Storage.

Pay attention to what Aerosys said above - you can CREATE a plugin to do that stuff. To my knowledge, one doesn't exist, at least since the last time I checked. If it hasn't been made and you can't make it yourself, then the workload falls on your players to grab their save file from game 1 and drop it into game 2. This sounds (and is) simple on its face, but a quick stop through tech support boards here or anywhere else will tell you that you need to leave as little to the end-user as possible.
