Save / Load high score online

Questions & Answers

Hello Everyone,
Am currently in the ending phase of finishing my “first” game, and in the moment all that is left to do is do the final touch on some elements and create a HighScore board,
since i am going to post the game on Kongregate.com, i was planning that using their API will not be a hard task, but it seems that it has some problem which i post it here in their forum, however, am not here to ask about how to use Kong’s API, i actually want to know how to do such thing alone ? and i think a public file in dropBox should do the job since i will limit the score board to only 100 entry (maybe less) but i actually don’t know where to start on this, so, please feel free to post any information :slight_smile:

thank you very much

This set of scripts will send a player’s name and score to a server to be stored in a MySQL Database, and then also loaded by the game to be seen.

Hello everyone,
sorry for the long delay to reply, i was busy trying to find a solution for this “problem”
and it seems that scoreiod is the answer, i took a little time to get used to it in the beginning specially if you never used XML before (like me) but it’s nothing too fancy in a couple of days (1->2 hours/day) i managed to make an in-game score function that allow people to save their score and entering their own name and also show an in-game leader board,
you can play my game on kongregate and test the result by yourself
