Okay, you posted a screenshot (not as good as code tags), as I was writing my first post.
Remove the âNewâ word in your âSetIntâ

This. Unexpected symbol almost always has something to do with what comes immediately before the symbol listed in the error.

oh, just removed the new from my SetInt and got three more errors.
Assets/Scripts/Score.cs(11,16): error CS1061: Type UnityEngine.UI.Text' does not contain a definition for Textâ and no extension method Text' of type UnityEngine.UI.Textâ could be found. Are you missing an assembly reference?
Assets/Scripts/Score.cs(22,15): error CS1502: The best overloaded method match for `UnityEngine.PlayerPrefs.SetInt(string, int)â has some invalid arguments
Assets/Scripts/Score.cs(22,36): error CS1503: Argument #2' cannot convert UnityEngine.UI.Textâ expression to type `intâ
Yeah, I can see that.
the âTextâ error is because you need â.textâ
The second error, you could fix with int.parse(ScoreText.text). That would also fix error #3.
PS. additional note/question: Is your score based on the position.z in the game??
Yeah itâs a game based on how far you can get arcade type game so it uses the z position.
Cool. Is it working now?
aww damn, got a new error.
Assets/Scripts/Score.cs(22,15): error CS0119: Expression denotes a method group', where a variableâ, value' or typeâ was expected
