High Score Code System Question
Would it be possible to provide the code your high score system. The one that gives you a code to submit your high score. I thing it would help fellow game developers with creating high score systems for thier games and allow them to learn from your code.
Thanks

I think someone's asked this before and I believe Jake and Phil want to keep it a secret so no one can cheat their way into the high scores

Re: High Score Code System Question
I'm not asking for actual code used in the games themselves, just sample code showing how they did it.

Re: High Score Code System Question
It basically takes a string and then changes some values for a given key, I am going to make it more secure at some point soon and then I shall say how it works. Basically if I gave out to many clues then the methods used could be easily cracked. It took us a while to get everything sorted but I would suggest you come up with your own method. Try finding stuff out about encryption and see what you can get.
